Misadventure at the Money Changer

As you all might know, I'm heading to India for a robotics competition called ROBOCON. Therefore, I needed go and change Indian Rupee for my trip. This is how the story goes:-




A couple of friends and I was going around the money changers near Jln Bunga Raya and there were a few of them so we went about them and seek the lowest rate. When we finally found one, we all change the money individually. I had to change for two of my friends also but something had gone horribly wrong. One of my friend gave me RM1800 and the other one gave me RM300 and for myself, I wanted to change RM300. For some reason, I thought I had to change RM1600+300+300. Maybe it was because of my other friends who had also changed RM1600. And so, I told the money changer I needed to change for RM2200 but the actual amount that I gave the money changer was in fact RM2400 and the money changer changed for me the amount of Indian Rupee equivalent to RM2200.




When I finally went to give my friend his Indian Rupee, I realize that I had a short of RM200. I was devastated. My friend said I should go back to ask for it and so today I went back to the Money Changer and told him what had happen. To my surprise, the money changer said he had an extra RM200 when he closed his account yesterday. He gave me back the money in Indian Rupee. I was so relief and happy. I did not believed my ears when I heard what he said. I thought he would have said that he could not have check yesterday money or maybe he would have told me to check my money before I had left. He is such an honest businessman.




That concludes my misadventure at the money changer. Thank you for reading.
