Whenever we see a car number plate on the road that start with the number 8 or with lots of 8 (for example 3888, 88 or 8888), we know for sure the owner must be a typical Chinaman. Some company even goes the extra mile to purchase 1-800 number that goes like 1-800-FATTCHOY. Does owing the number 8 will make us prosperous? Sometimes I do wonder.
p/s: For those that don’t understand Chinese, 8 in Cantonese means rich.
I guess those special numbers provides a sort of `feels good’ feeling which translate to good luck!!
My previous car is 5122 & now it’s 622 … both adds up to a perfect 10!! hehe..
Of course owing that nos can make someone rich….JPJ.
Either that person have 2 sen(Hokkien) or like to hammer the face until swollen.
