You’ve probably heard the news. In December 2014 the Ringgit was at an all-time low, the 6% GST
(Goods and Service Tax) is hitting us this April 2015, and following
suit the prices of movie and concert tickets will get pretty EXPENSIVE.
The start of 2015 is looking like a financial downer but if you’re like me, you’re probably tired of hearing another advice from your well meaning relatives telling you to save a few ringgit by cutting back on your favourite Starbuck lattes or mamak sessions.
Really, does saving a few ringgit really going to change your life?
