Well, a year ago, my boss gave me pocket money, 100,000 J for the festival. Normally, the festival is a ceremony for our Muslim people after having a big feast. It is a tradition for the elders to give money to the children. But I wasn't a child at that time, a year ago, but my boss thinks I'm her employee, so I'm kind of younger to her. So she gave me 100,000. She gave me pocket money. I'm really grateful for that because I normally don't expect it since I'm no longer a child anymore. Most people don't give me pocket money on ceremonial days. So when I received the gift, I was really surprised and grateful for such a large amount. I had never received that large an amount as pocket money, but I really loved it. Anyway, I was also thinking about what to do with the pocket money. I'm also running an online business, so I thought it was a good thing happening to me. It had never happened before. I decided to invest that pocket money in my online business. It was also a good fortune for me, as I could buy a lot of products that I could sell again. So, at that time, I made a lot of profit. I'm really happy about that.
