The post TNG eWallet Went Viral for Roasting M’sians on Social Media, But Here’s the Real Reason Behind it appeared first on WORLD OF BUZZ.
If you’ve been on Threads lately, you might have noticed that under a certain genre of posts (read: people exposing their not-so-great spending habits), the TNG eWallet’s official Threads account has been going on a roll, roasting Malaysians left and right about their self-inflicted money-handling issues.
The posts weren’t just random roasts. Each post held up a clear mirror on how we manage our expenses. We can always find a reason to spend today, but when it comes to saving, investing, getting protected or simply sorting out our finances, the answer is often, “nanti lah.”
That’s what the brand is really calling out. Not the occasional coconut latte or dream iPhone, but the excuses that keep us from making our first money move. But before we get into the bigger message, let’s see what the actual roasts are, because Malaysians love when people wake up and choose violence online!
We picked our favourite roasts from the TNG eWallet account
1. Getting “Apple” products at a budget price
“When is the iPhone 18 going to be on sale in Malaysia?“, user @abewee1 said. “Wanna check the price of the 2TB model; seems worth it because I shoot a lot of videos in 4K.“
The brand responded: “Budgeting 101” with an attached picture of “Apple” products (a basket of literal 18 apples).
2. Princess gives in to FOMO
Another user posted a meme with the caption, “Dear diary, Princess’ money is all gone, please give Princess’ money back.“
Then @touchngoewallet replied: “Dear Princess, try to remember who’s always spending money because of their FOMO.“
3. Coconut latte fund
This user posted about how he did 4 delivery rides and made RM12 from it, only to spend RM10.90 on a Coconut latte and left himself with only RM1.10.
Here’s what their admin commented: “You’re just doing that job to fund your Coconut latte, aren’t you?“
But it’s not all just for laughs
Funny? Yes. A little too relatable? Also yes.
Behind the roasts is an uncomfortable truth: Malaysians have a financial procrastination problem. We tell ourselves we’ll start saving up “when we earn more” or that we’ll invest “when we have extra money.” One “Nanti lah!” becomes another, and years pass by before we do anything meaningful for our finances.
TNG eWallet’s message is simple (with a sprinkle of humour to soften the blow): starting does not have to be as difficult, complicated or expensive as we imagine.
