He put aside all 50-cent coins he came across and after seven years, he had enough to buy himself an iPhone 14. 

Muhamad Hafiz Abdul Hamid, from Penang said he and his family members recently counted his savings which came up to RM5,360 in total. 

The 30-year-old had saved all the coins in a bottle which they cut open to do the counting. 

"After three hours, we finished counting and I was amazed at the amount collected. 

"I began collecting the coins in 2016 as a hobby," he said. 

Hafiz, who is a housekeeping supervisor said he would even exchange RM1 notes for 50-cent coins whenever he could. 

"I don't think I will do it again. For now, I am so happy to be able to own an iPhone 14," he said.
