Sharing time ... kekeke 
This incident happened many years ago during the era when the night-club "Golden Million" was very popular. This story was about my friend friend and let just called him W. W was a odd-job painter. Due to the nature of his job, money was always very tight and not enough for him. One day he was very broke and desperate and asked our bros to lend him some money to make a trip to Hatyai to pray. We were all reluctant as we know he is the type who will never pay you back. So W went to borrow from loanshark $500 in order to make the trip there. Understand that he went to a temple called " hatyai nai " to pray. A few days after he came back, during our regular drinking sessions at this AMK coffee shop, W suddenly told us he had a dream that previous night. He told us that he dream of an old man who show him a chinese newspaper 4D results column. All the numbers were missing except the 2nd prize. When we heard that we all laughed at him and said that maybe it is the "bay peo kwee " that come and disturb him.
Come that following Saturday, we were all at the same coffee shop again. There was this little boy passing by the coffee shop shouting " ma piew poh ". W then called out to him: " Eh, ah tee, lai lai lai, chiok kaur jik a ". The little boy then said :" Waa...ma lar a sai. Ai kuar tio ai buay mah ". W then said:" mien kia lar. Wa nasi tio, wa long chong kar le buay lo lai." The little boy probably sensing that it was a good deal then passed a copy of the newspaper to W. All of a sudden, W jumped up from his seat and shouted:" Waaaa......ho say leow !!!, ho say leow !!!, tio leow !!! tio leow !!! " It turned out that W had struck lottery and true enough it was exactly the same 2nd prize number the old man in his dream shown him. W had won $68,000 from a few private ones and that night as promised he also bought all the newspapers from the little boy and placed it outside the coffee shop and gave it away free to passerby. That night we had a celebration at the coffee shop immediately but we actually paid first as W did not have much money with him .....yet
After that night celebration dinner, I did not see W again as he was only a friend friend. Heard from my friend that after W collected his winnings, he too also seldom contact my friend. But later we heard he had become a horse bookie. W also started cheonging nightclubs and always like to ON those Taiwanese & Hongkong singers. His favorite nightclub is " Golden Million " and he was very well-known there as he was a big tipper. In 2 months time, heresay his money has swelled to 200k and he continue to live a very lavish lifestyle.
But then into the 3rd month, his luck suddenly changed. He started losing. Even a very outsider horse also could come in. W losses began to increase every weekends and by the beginning of the 4th month, he lost everything , his thick jewelry on his body and also his expensive Rolex watch. W by now was back to square one ... broke and desperate again !!!
In the end, I heard from my friend that W actually had make a vow when he went to pray in hatyai and did not fulfill it. What kind of vow, my friend was not so sure. So is it actually this unfulfill vow that W promised the God that landed him in such situation or is it just a coincidence???......your guess is as good as mine......end of story.......thanks for reading
