Up to the last Rial!
By: Mohammad Behfuruzi
While studying in teachers’ college our salary was 150 Tumans a month. During summer, because were off, we didn’t get any salary. Mr. Rajaee and I were roommates. Sometimes we paid 12 Rials to eat cutlet. He was cheap to run and content since his youth and used to say:”? We should be cost effective”?. Sometimes we paid half a rail buy a slice of bread and it served as our food. During the year, Mr. Rajaee used to save money for summer in which he didn’t receive salary. He was so systematic in his life and financial affairs as if he was asked how much money he has spent; he would give you the account for the last rials. Although I got the same salary as he did, but whenever I asked him for money he had extra money to lend me.
