This is @8m vnd which is enough for the average household.
We have to make a point to them that we are not rich. Whenever something is damaged, I made her scour for the best price available, even though i can pay it off out-right, I tell her to check if installment plans are available.
End of the day, I usually pay outright but not after she does her research.
