@ # 10
E di isigaw mo hanggang sa mapaos ka. Kung may problema ka about sa Meralco o sa abs, tumawag ka sa Customer service nila at wag ka ditong magkalat ng iyong walang kakwenta-kwentang reklamo at hinanaing sa buhay. O kaya naman type mo ang “BOBO AKO ” then send mo sa 2366. Nasubukan na yan ng iba mong kapuso-negro and its effective…..Awww!

imposible pong walang utang ang GMA, wag mo sabihin independent sila? na kaya nilang i-finance ang company nila without selling bonds or other financial securities?
a sort of advice lang ha…
mag-enroll ka po ng degree sa Commerce o Business Ad, nang malaman mo at mapunan ang nagtutuyo mong utak…

Being the richest man, Henry, why don’t you lower your grocery prices? Isn’t a few billions enough for you?
October 25th, 2008 at 8:26 am
I just noticed that the figures are in dollars, not pesos. Henry is filthy rich. I wonder how much of his money is going back to the community. Henry, how about hiring your temporary employees so they can become permanent employees, HENRY? Sobra na naman ang yaman mo. SHEESH!!!
October 26th, 2008 at 10:50 pm
kapag mas mayaman, mas tumataas ang COST OF LIVING. mas mahal na association dues, mas mahal ang regalo sa inaanak, mas mahal na gas sa mas madaming koche, di pwede magcommute ang angkan, bayad sa driver, security, maids, mas mahal na tuition fee dahil international school, etc.

makahingi nga ng barya kay ninong Henry
