‘What is the harm in buying a car in August’

Here are the thoughts of Mr. Vu Anh, who lives in Hanoi, about buying a car in Month Ngau:

Whenever Ngau month approaches, I find people around me suddenly more fearful. buy house? in the last one month. buy car? “Stupid” too, stop waiting for the end. Even after buying some clothes with a little extra money, I tried to stop at Ngau before going down to take the money home.

I was really fed up seeing people around me like this. It is also the freedom of each individual to know what, how and when to buy. But looking to the skies to shop, even for the things you really need, is really helpless.

In the past, I have never abstained from anything in such a spiritual way. For example, on the first day of the new year, everyone abstains from taking out the trash, bathing, cleaning here and there, and I, on the first day of the new year, reward myself with a very enjoyable bath. I give Wouldn’t it be better to welcome the new year with a clean and smelling body? I also sweep, clean and wash the dishes thoroughly, just don’t throw out the garbage because there is usually a garbage truck on the 2nd.

So, when I had enough money, I also went to buy the car that I had already set my eyes on, without seeing the day, whether it was a motorcycle or a car.

People around me keep nagging me about it. But till now I am living well, never had to go to any doctor.

Thousands of traffic accidents happen every year, how many cars are bought in Naga month? No one has compiled such statistics, but I imagine not many people would be as “risky” as I am.

I think whether or not there is a problem depends on the driver, not the day the car was bought, or what plates are on it.

Not only this, buying a car in August or getting a discount is such a cheap deal, so why not buy one? If you are really “sneaky”, just buy a car, send it somewhere, go through the Ngau month. So have a cheap car without worrying about Nagau.
