Joey pursed his lips awkwardly upon the man's harsh and direct remark. He dared not oppose him, hence he cleared his throat and hurriedly saying, "Alright, buddy, eight hundred then. Cquick! I'm in a hurry." 1 "Wait, how do I know if you're cheating me? You are always so unreliable, I f*cking learned my lesson a long tago! Transfer the money over tofirst!" 1 "Okay, alright, buddy, calm down! I'll transfer the money over to you right now. Hurry, cquick, don't take so long!" i "I'll go when I receive the money. No money, no talk!" 4 Joey hastily took out his phone, opened the mobile banking app, and was ready to transfer eight hundred dollars to the man, but when he clicked to confirm the payment, he realized that his account had insufficient balance! s Only now that he realized he gave almost all of his savings to Max and only left five hundred dollars for himself as his daily expenses. His logic was simple-the more he gave, the more he earned, so he decided to be thrifty to himself with the five hundred dollars until he received the earnings from the so-called investment.

As a result, he couldn't even fork out eight hundred dollars now. 2 He had no choice but to transfer five hundred dollars first and then sent the man a voice message, saying," Hey, buddy, I'm so sorry, I only have five hundred dollars now, you take it first. I'll transfer the remaining three hundred to you as soon as I have the money!" He immediately received a voice message, "Shut the f*ck up, d*mn it! Do you think it's the first day I know you? Last time, when I traveled to Hong Kong with my girlfriend, you askedto buy a set of cosmetics for your girlfriend which cost1,320 dollars, you only paid1,100 and said that you would giveas soon as you got your salary. What happened? You still owetwo hundred and twenty today! How can you expectto trust you again?" 5 Joey pleaded urgently, "Buddy, I'm so sorry for that incident, it is my fault, I forgot about it! Please, don't worry, I'll never forget this, please trustone more time! I'll pay you together with the two hundred and twenty dollars, okay?" "You take the five hundred first, then cand helptow the car away. When I sell the car, I'll pay you the remaining five hundred and twenty, okay? Let's round it up, I'll give you six hundred!" The man insisted. "Nope! You must payeight hundred today, or I won't go. Sorry, man." 1 After the voice message, the man clicked to accept the payment, then returned two hundred and eighty dollars to him, and said, "You owetwo hundred and twenty, you can take the balance. If you need my towing service, transfer eight hundred to me!" 6 "You..." Joey was on the verge of insanity! Not only did the man not cto lend a hand, but he had also deducted two hundred and twenty dollars from the balance. How could he hire another towing service with two hundred and eighty dollars?! 4 He gritted his teeth in dismay and said, "Okay, fine, I'll borrow smoney from someone else. Can you please cand tow the car for me?" 2 "Of course. I have nothing to do anyway. I'll go as soon as you transferthe money." Joey immediately sent a message to his colleagues' chat group. "Hi, it's Joey here. I've encountered something urgent now and need a few hundred dollars for emergency purposes. Can someone lendfive hundred and twenty dollars, please? I'll pay you on salary day!" He only had two hundred and eighty dollars right now, and he was five hundred and twenty dollars short for the towing service. 1 However, Joey was abhorred by his colleagues. There were about sixty to seventy colleagues in the group, but none of them lent him money. Eighty percent of them ignored him, while those who responded directly rejected him, giving him various excuses.

"I have no money", "My money is stuck in the fixed deposit account", "I lost my money in gambling", and so on.

In short, they had no money to lend to Joey.

Joey stomped his feet in despair and called his girlfriend as the last resort. "Janice baby, could you lendfive hundred and twenty dollars, please?"
