Watwheels Supersonic February 26, 2014 Share February 26, 2014 Pic of the Fan blowing on the egg and egg shell, 風吹雞蛋殼，財散人安樂 (penkyamp: Fonk1 coy1 gay1 dan2 hog3, coi4 san3 yant4 ngon1 log6) Literally: Like wind blows on egg shells, when the money is gone a person feels light (at ease). Moral: Money is a burden. Usage: This is usually used by a gambler who just lost all his money, but needs a philosophy to make themselves feel better. Note: the last syllables of the two phrases rhyme in Cantonese Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
