Master Brendon, I thought of a way to save money.
Let's hear it.
I intend to set aside 50 percent of my monthly salary, sir.
Hmm... that's tough to do. Take my word for it, my child.
Hmm... what would you suggest, master?
Shoot for 20 percent.
Hhaaa... since I'm new at this, shouold I start with 15 perscent?
A wise decision, but I don't like *false modesty. Make it 17.5 percent and
see what you can do.
(*false modesty = うわべだけの謙虚さ、謙虚なふり)
Wiser words have never been spoken.
Thank you.

17.5 percent.

We'll have to get out our sorobans. (そろばん abacus)
Yes.

How often do you think our listners should listen to this program, a goal,
for them?
Yes.
OKay.
OK. I think they should shoot for one hundred percent.
Everyday!
Wow!
Wow!
At least 99.5.
What do you mean by that?
