As one of the Seniors in here, I felt that there is a need to maintain the cheap prices when we sillypore go cheong in batam.

I admit I had missed it until I read today the reply of Nono, but this is one of wisest posts I have ever read here.

At the end of the day, we cheongsters should enjoy bearing in mind that we do want to spend as little as possible with the maximum benefits. There are so many things we can do with money to make a difference rather than just throwing it at any cewek in Batam.
Please bear in mind that the average income for most batam people is 2-3 juta per month.

Well said. That is the key, which not everyone understands.
Overspending, just because one can afford it, is just plain STUPID, where
"stupid" means really a lot, as it was theorized by the economist C.M. Cipolla with his "Basic Laws of Human Stupidity".
If one does not want to read the 25 pages easily available on the web, there is the summary of Wikipedia.
Cipolla's five fundamental laws of stupidity:
1) Always and inevitably everyone underestimates the number of stupid individuals in circulation.
2) The probability that a certain person (will) be stupid is independent of any other characteristic of that person.
3) A stupid person is a person who causes losses to another person or to a group of persons while himself deriving no gain and even possibly incurring losses.
4) Non-stupid people always underestimate the damaging power of stupid individuals. In particular non-stupid people constantly forget that at all times and places and under any circumstances to deal and/or associate with stupid people always turns out to be a costly mistake.
5) A stupid person is the most dangerous type of person.
Law 2) reminds that it does not matter if one has a PhD or cannot even write: stupidity is everywhere, in every country, every social class, every level of instruction.
But please look at Laws 3) and 4), which I highlighted in red: the stupid behaviour of few stupid individuals makes damage not only to them but also to many others.
We should not be stingy (i.e., bargain to excess) when we are with a girl who earns little money and have problems to sustain her baby and life, but also do the opposite is wrong (that is, stupid).
One thing is having a generous hearth, another is being stupid.
Finding the appropriate balance is not always immediate, but that is what one should aim at.
