From the article

Fernando Marzuki,18,for one,has been heading down to California Fitness about three times each week to work on his chest and biceps because they are more noticeable.

He took up the membership in September,costing about $75 a month.His parents pay for it.

"Looking good gives me confidence. When I was skinny at the start of this year,I was very shy",said the Singapore Polytehnic student,who proclaims himself a metrosexual."And I feel people tend to be nicer to those who are attractive[/b]

Why waste $75 of your lao peh's hard earned money??? I can teach you to train at the neighbourhood fitness corner and it cost NOTHING...you can still get your big biceps and big chest... Very Happy

because kids are like that nowadays.
mostly spineless, living off mummy and daddy's money with no sense of responsibility.

they think that their parents owe them a living, the more extreme ones think EVERYONE owes them a living.

we have perfect examples in the cars forum and the topic where 24 yr old bugger who's complaining he hasn't seen enough, without realising there are people less fortunate than him. worse part is that there are lotsa kids in there who use mummy and daddy's money and declare they have gone to lots of countries.

useless punks. Rolling Eyes

Why bother ?

It is his lao peh's money.

Without these people, the economy would not boom and there will be no places for babe to show off their bodies.

you need good looks and deep pocket.

UandMe SG

ya lor agree, his lao peh might be some big-earning manager or director wat, no need to say until like that. Not like his parents eating tao gei giam cai every meal to put him through his gym sessions.

and he's also only 18 wat. i know some people might have already been earning their own pocket money at this age, but no need to put down everyone else who are still living off their parents who can well afford it lah.

NEXT SUNDAY:

x, a secondary student, had frequent XXXX fitness gym everyday, when ask, he reply that he had sign up for the year's membership at only two thousand dollars, he said it is more worth than studying becos stronger bodies make me able to be a strong man, health is oweis important. Although his parents' hard earn money was wasted, x dun mind. his parents said he is a veri good boy, his dad wished that he could kill him, i mean, the stress of working out will not kill him Twisted Evil
