We are gifted in different endeavors that we take. People are doing some silly acts just to have money. Even dying person they got money to work at. A group of people crying during the wake and even internment they did it though they are not related to each other. Poor those souls scratching their pockets just to have a decent ceremony.

i think chinese do hire some ladies during the wake..they believe that the more who cried, the faster the soul would go to heaven..but i'm not sure about that..i heard about that couple of years ago..

i saw a movie about this. it was entitled crying ladies. i dont know if they were Chinese or what nationality believes that a lot of people should cry for their loved ones so that the soul will gain something. the family members are not able to do that all the time so they hire these crying ladies.

haha MyleZrl, that is a very funny example. i wish I can cry for money! Too bad crying is not my thing. If anyone wants to hire me for laughing, and pays me very well, then I can laugh till tears come! Or maybe I should make others laugh till they have tummy ache.
