Borrow 50k from Mum and 50k from Dad (total 100k).
Buy shirt for 97k, remaining cash = 3k.
Pay 1k each to Mum and Dad, now owe 49k each, cash left = 1k.
“Missing 1k” illusion: debt 98k cash 1k = 97k (shirt cost).
Repay remaining 98k gradually or in full.
Conclusion: No money is missing; debt and cash match the shirt purchase.
