Life is hard in the Philippines. 

Life is hard in the Philippines.
Old Mars has a had a hard week, life is hard in the Philippines. His beloved mother died this week and at the same time he was suffering from terrible toothaches that he cannot sleep so he decided to have all his upper teeth pulled out since tooth extraction is the only procedure thats free in the barangay clinic. So from little bit of savings old Mars is planning to pay it for his dentures so he can eat properly but only to be used for his mother's funeral expenses instead.
This is life for most people in the Philippines, some work hard but not even enough for food, sone struggle on and lived so tight to at least set aside tiny bit of their earnings for emergencies and any purchase plans only to be emptied on unexpected events. And it is back to zero again just work hard everyday mainly for food.
