There's a woman in Guangdong who racked up 2 million yuan (about RM1.14 million) in online loan debt. When she saw she couldn’t pay it back, guess what she did? She didn’t go into hiding, nor did she do anything desperate—instead, she stood on the street holding a marriage proposal sign! Her demeanor, her poise—it was as if she had 2 million in savings in her hand, confidently waiting for a “fish” to take the bait!
This incident took everyone by surprise. Let’s not even talk about her age—judging by the photo, this lady isn’t exactly young anymore. But just to discuss the facts: if someone has 2 million yuan, they’d be hot property on the marriage market, right? If you want to marry a young, attractive, reliable girl, the most the bride price would ever be is 200,000 yuan (about RM113,600), and with a house, car, and all the extras, maybe 500,000 yuan (about RM284,000) in total. What couldn’t you do with the remaining over 1 million? So why would anyone pick a 'lady' carrying over 2 million in debt? People are quicker with the calculator than flipping pages in a book—who doesn’t have a sense of measure in their own heart?
The online comments are even wilder. Some say, “She’s just looking for someone to pay off her debt—at least she’s honest about that part.” Isn’t that obvious? Besides that, what else could she be sincere about? Others say, “If you spend the money, aside from supporting her, what rights do you actually get?” Though unfinished, we all get the meaning: isn’t this just spending money to provide for your own would-be 'ancestor'? Someone else sighed, saying in the old days, people sold themselves to bury their father—now that was filial piety, those were traditional values. So what is this? This is simply running away from debt and using marriage as collateral! Blunt as it is, the point stands—it lays bare the twisted values and warped view of marriage that some people have nowadays.
