Mamak, Milo satu!

Assalamualaikum.

There's a cost to convenience. Maksudnya, kalau kita nak sesuatu yang mudah, selalunya we have to bear the cost. Contohnya, kita ambil yang mudah-mudah sahaja, Milo 3-in-1 bancuh sendiri dengan Milo order kat kedai  mamak.

Milo 3-in-1 harganya RM 13.00 untuk 20 stick which will bring the cost for every stick at RM 1.10 considering air panas, cawan dan lokasi duduk untuk minum adalah percuma. Milo kat mamak pulak harganya RM 2.00 sebab air panas, cawan dan tempat duduk tersebut mamak yang punya.

So, mana yang lebih mudah, bancuh sendiri atau mamak yang bancuhkan? Of course lah mamak bancuhkan lebih senang. Tapi, the cost for such a small convenience is at RM 0.90 per cup of Milo. RM 0.90 ni sikit atau banyak? *kat mamak ada TV besar, ada kipas angin berair, plus ada kemeriahan yang menyebabkan semua benda menjadi sedap.

Considering you have your cup of Milo every day at the mamak, and you work 5 days a week, for the whole month, the cost for such a convenience is RM 0.90 x 20 days work = RM 18.00. RM 18.00 ni sikit atau banyak? Kalau setahun RM 18.00 x 12 = RM 216.00 and to make it more realistic I'll just take 80% of the value sebab kadang-kadang kita MC, kadang-kadang kawan belanja, kadang-kadang order air suam saja sebab duit dah habis, bringing the cost for such a small convenience to RM 172.80.

So, the question is not how big or small RM 172.80 for a cup of Milo every morning for the whole year.

The question is are you willing to let go of such small conveniences in life to spend your money more wisely.

Kalau guna Milo 3-in-1 the cost of convenience is at RM 124.80, berbeza almost RM 50.00 dengan Milo mamak.

Hmm..maybe kita perlu tukar pakai Milo serbuk atau minum air suam saja. Ni baru cerita bab Milo, tak kira lagi bab roti canai, roti telur, roti tisu, roti bom.

Hope you got my point.
