More Gold to Go
10.29.09
I should have told the truth to my Boss; the financial budget for the exhibition this company would participate in was not maximal. I was so surprised to receive the financial budget in gold which I have never handled before. But now what I could do is just to blame on myself – How stupid I am! How could I be so foolish like this? Refusing good offer from my boss has caused a fatal problem now. How come?
My boss gave me the financial condition in form of gold coins from the office, and the condition is now so terrible that even my boss blames me for my carelessness in arranging all financial matters and budgeting. He was trying to give the best for this important exhibition but I thought that everything would apparently be the same as the last month event we had participated in local exhibition. This time, just I wish I could use my own money to support the financial lack. However, Japan does not seem to receive dollars well, meanwhile my credit cards has got in usage limit. What left in me is just a piece of gold coin that I am not sure would be sufficient for the rest of our staying in Japan. It is just more gold we need to go on surviving here.
Chronologically, my boss actually offered me to bring gold bullion for the easiest way of any payment term in here; but I told him that some gold coins would be enough. Apparently, the rate of gold coins or gold bullion will be the same throughout the world, and that is what I don’t really comprehend about. As the common term, bullion is indeed a big amount, and I didn’t think that I deserved to carry it with me. But that is my fault. In fact, one piece of gold bullion is still insufficient in this sophisticated country. In short, gold is indeed needed worldwide. Well, it is just a matter of me. I am too conservative until I don’t realize that gold coins are now just getting to become a common way of payment and trading.
