Synopsis:
Housewives always are the good long-term bets compared to the other options

As a stockbroker, WONG CHI CHUNG (Michael Tse) is not cunning and tricky enough. Many of his customers have turned to the new securities firm in the same estate. Top broker of the firm, TING SHIU KING (Dominic Lam), tries to expand his customer base by developing the housewives market. He teaches CHUNG’s wife TSEUNG YUE CHU (Kiki Sheung) all about stock exchanges. CHU earns a lot of money through KING and many housewives follow her blindly. CHUNG wants CHU to stop indulging in the stock market and they fight with each other all the time. Feeling lost in both his career and marriage, CHUNG meets his puppy lover KOO KA CHUN (Joyce Tang) and discovers that she also works as a stockbroker.

While everybody has become a devoted stockholder, the market suddenly drops drastically. All the housewives lose large amounts of money and are devastated. CHU tries to pay for the debt by working multiple jobs and she also decides to reconcile with CHUNG. Unfortunately, CHUNG has been framed by CHUN and KING. As an extraordinary housewife, CHU is not defeated at all. She stays calm, bounces back and gets ready to strive against the villainy.
