One little-known detail is that painters often find money at the bottom of the paint buckets after they have been used up. Why is that?

Nowadays, as modern life develops, to enhance the durability and beauty of walls, people often prefer to choose water-based paints over traditional wall plastering. Plastering and painting might sound simple, and anyone could do it. However, to make old and damp walls look sharp and well-defined, it requires the expertise of professional and experienced painters. With simple tools like sandpaper, grinders, wire brushes, and rollers, the painting process involves many stages: applying a primer, sanding smooth, applying base coats, and painting the final color. Apart from dexterity, this job demands patience, effort, and considerable physical exertion, not to mention other manual tasks.

Being a painter is a tough job, and not everyone stays long in this line of work.

But one little-known detail is that painters often find money at the bottom of the paint buckets after they have been used up. Why is that?

Many painters, after using up a paint bucket, often reach down to the bottom of the bucket to find sealed plastic bags inside. After rinsing, inside these bags are 20,000-50,000 VND bills.

This practice has been around for a while. In fact, because new paint brands often face tough competition with established brands, smaller paint companies have come up with a way to put money into the bottom of the paint buckets. The purpose is for painters to encourage homeowners to buy paint from these brands. The companies make sales, and the painters also receive small cash bonuses. "A hundred coins in cash is not as good as one coin in a bonus." In addition to being an effective marketing strategy, this also motivates painters to do their work.
