Math-magic!
Who told you the Remainders must add up to equal the Spendings.

See...
Spent 20 Remain 30
Spent 25 Remain 5
Spent 5 Remain 0
Spent =50 Remainder=35

OK u mean the 20k u gave ur moronic father?
I want to place a curse on all scammers (using WildChild00 as a point of contact to other scammers ) especially here on nairaland, it shall never be well with them, they shall die a miserable death, vultures shall feed on their dead bodies, misery shall forever locate them. Woe betide all scammers.
