Avoid MTR Pitfalls

The other day, on an already crowded train that was about to depart the terminus at Tung Chung, a seat next to me stayed vacant as several unaccompanied persons walked right past. At one point, a slightly dishevelled woman in her forties, by herself, stood next to it while looking yonder for greener pastures. After a while, I was beginning to wonder if she would ever sit down as the train began moving. Then it suddenly occurred to me that perhaps individual MTR seating held different values; unwittingly, I had settled down in the ghetto area of the train - this woman was obviously holding out for a better deal - she was looking to buy prime real estate!

Forget Hong Kong housing speculation, the next boom is in MTR seating.
