RM20k versus FOC
Met an old colleague @ Bkt Kiara Club.....he left the company around 12 years ago. It was good to catch & we yakked about the old days ... checking who is still around, who has left the company.
Then we were on subject of how often we come to the club. In the first place I was surprised to even see him there as I know he is staying in Rawang which is many many km away. He mentioned that he was there just to use the spa & take a bath before going for his dinner appointment later. Later we were on the subject on when we join the club and how much we paid for the membership....well he paid more than 20k when he joined the club maybe 15 years ago....whereas my membership was less than 5k & it was fully subsidised by the company i.e.....FOC!
Moral of the story ....20k for a bath is very expensive
