We were always taught to save any money we had in a piggy bank. Whenever we had RM1 or just some spare change, we would toss it into a ready container. That's precisely what this Malaysian, who goes by the TikTok handle Bifoty Camper, did!
In the video, he reveals how he opened a large five-gallon water bottle filled with 50-cent coins. He mentioned that he had been using the old-school method of a coin jar for seven years, and his diligence paid off, yielding RM5,360.
@bifoty_camper Total RM5360.00 hasil simpan semua duit 50sen..takde duit 10sen@20sen..ambik masa 3jam baru siap kira dengan tenaga 4org tukang kira alhamdulillah.. #menabung #duitsyiling #50sen #alhamdulillah original sound - Bifoty camper
He added that it took him and three friends three hours to count all the saved coins, and there's even a before-and-after comparison of the process. Many commend him for his dedication, while some jest that the bottle he used for coin storage might be the reason for the shortage of 50-cent coins in recent years.
This could be your cue to start saving, even those leftover coins in your wallet.
