Ten-years since the first Money No Enough, local celebrity auteur Jack Neo’s “Money No Enough 2” returns to bring attention to the common man’s life in Singapore where the pursuit of money is a never ending passion . The story revolves around three brothers from a middle-income background in contemporary Singapore. These are characters who are representative of the business owners, white and blue collar workers of Singaporeans. 《钱不够用2》是一部反应社会民情、写实的电影，利用真实的事件为观众献上一幕幕即令人捧腹大笑又感同身受的连场好戏！
故事以杨家的三兄弟，分别是由程旭辉、梁智强和李国煌饰演的杨宝辉,杨宝强和杨宝煌，为主线展开。虽然这三个人是亲兄弟，从小都在新加坡的中等阶层的家庭成长，但是这三人在长大后，都将代表新加坡三个不同收入、不同阶级的人物。
The oldest brother Yang Bao Hui (by Henry Thia) represents the lower income group. As a child, Hui left school at an early age to earn money to help support his poverty stricken family. He has been working as a delivery man in the same company for the last 30 years. At the persuasion of his younger brother, he strikes out as an entrepreneur to sell health supplements. As business improves, he quits his dead-end job and puts all his time into the business. Unfortunately the business is forced to a standstill when the health supplement is deemed unsafe for public consumption, which inadvertently brings Bao Hui close to financial ruin. 大哥杨宝辉代表地下层阶级，由于小时候家里比较穷，所以提早到社会上工作，在一间运输公司做了三十年，为了想赚更多的钱，在弟弟杨宝煌的怂恿下，兼职传销保健产品。开始的时候保健产品还卖得不错，宝辉赚了不少钱，他决定辞掉工作，全时间投入传销生意，可惜好景不长，有人吃了保健产品出事，传销生意被迫搁置。面对堆积如山、卖不出的产品，宝辉一家顿时陷入经济拮据…。
The second brother Yang Bao Qiang (by Jack Neo) portrays a well-heeled successful businesman. As the owner of his own business, he and his wife flaunts their wealth in typical Singaporean fashion, with designer clothes, a flashy car and a big house to put it all in. However in a moment of greed, he allows himself to be cheated out of his fortune and gets into a very difficult financial situation.
二哥杨宝强所代表的是老板的阶级。在这个“先敬罗衣后敬人”的社会里，杨宝强衣着光鲜，住大房子，开大汽车，似乎过着不愁吃不愁穿的日子，但是，他却因想赚更多，学人炒房地产，结果资金被卷走，让他也陷入经济危机之中。
The youngest brother Yang Bao Huang (by Mark Lee) represents the ordinary middle working class. He earns a good salary working as a regional supervisor for a health supplement trading company, and spends lavishly to maintain his ‘wannabe’ lifestyle. When the health supplement business goes bust, debts pile up and Bao Huang too, faces financial ruin.老三杨宝煌代表的自然就是打工的阶级，身为保健产品传销公司区域代理的他，月入丰厚。然而，由于他应酬甚多，生活自然绚丽多姿，花费更是特别地高，因此，根本没有什么积蓄，后来保健生意被迫停盘，他也因此陷入经济危机。
As the winds of fortune changes, the brother’s begin to neglect their elderly mother. It was easy to be generous and filial during the good times but when household budgets tighten, what is the cost of true filial piety? Even the most basic arrangements, including whom mom should stay with, become a contentious issue. It is the filmmaker’s wish that Money No Enough 2, through the ups and downs faced by the three Yang brothers, help us to reflect at our own priorities while giving us a chance to laugh at ourselves.
电影除了反应三兄弟在理财不当上的喜和忧，也加入三兄弟和母亲关系的一条家庭温馨主线。 三兄弟由于忙碌地为生计奔波，因此都疏于照顾年迈的母亲。当然，在物质上，三人从来都对母亲相当慷慨，但是在感情上，对于母亲的关怀却是少得可怜，过程中带出讽刺人情的冷暖、更幽了“孝顺”这个定义一默……
《钱不够用 2 》通过这三个主角不同形式，不同阶级，不同程度的“钱不够用”，加上与母亲、孩子之间的矛盾，让观众深刻体会现代社会的人们每天都在重复经历的甜酸苦辣、欢喜忧愁，即达到取得共鸣的效果，更发挥自嘲的讽刺，绝对是举家共赏的一部好戏。
