Why i wana be rich?

Since young i keep on asking myself " Will i be rich in future? Can i achieve my goal to be the 10 richest man in the country? Doubting this will happen but i still tell myself that "Sure!! I'm going to be in the top 10 list" Still remember, during my first day of orientation at campus. The first question that my leader asked the group about "My dream". The group members answer, " I wanna be a civil engineer, an IT engineer or a programmer" But when the leader look at me, I answer him " I wana be a billionaire!!" My answer bring up laughter to everybody. i know it sounds abit crazy but I really know what I want to be in future. I wanna be a business tycoon ,achieve my goal to be a billionaire so that my relative wont look down on us.



Still remember,

When i was 16, my family and me went for a holiday at Genting Highland together with my uncle's family. It should be a fun trip because knowing that we will stay at my uncle's newly renovated 2 in 1 condo and for youngster like my siblings and cousins it would be fun because we can catch a free ride to the peak or Awana through the free shutter service.
Too bad things doesnt happen like what i hope it should be.

To cut the story short...

After about 90mins drive from KL we arrive at my uncle's condo. First impression.. WOW!! The design was pretty good and comfortable. Since we had our dinner before we reach, the adult decided to rest and watch news. While us the "young one's " decided to catch a shutter to Awana for few frame of billiards. It wasnt a good game because I have to pay for the game because looser pay.

When back to the condo, my mom asked me "Nick, who pay for the game?"
" For sure is me!" i answer. From my mom expression I notice something has happen when we were out. So my mom tell me " Do you know what you uncle mention " For sure my son pay for the game since your children first time to town, is like a "AYAM KAMPUNG". What he meant was they are the city guys who know alot of things while we are those people who do not know anything.........

" People who has expensive shoes please take it while the cheap shoe can leave it outside!" My uncle says that his family wear expensive shoes while we wear the cheap shoe. He insult again. This time it happen infront of me, how can he say so.!! Is not matter of the value of the shoe but is how he look down on us. He thought with the money in his bank account he can say what ever he feel so. Without knowing that his fat mouth is smellier that the dead rat!

Without my dad who sacrificed his time work in the factory, he wont have the money now. My dad has spent his childhood working as a labor so he can support all the younger siblings, so they have a house to live and food to eat. Without my dad he is nothing! Useless fat mouth.

From that time onward, I swear to myself that I wanna be rich, richer that him prove to him that anyone can be rich.Now i'm 25 and today is 29/12/2007 the word "AYAM KAMPUNG" still clear in my mind. He has awaken a sleepy giant!
I'm working toward my dream to be a billionaire and last but not least build up a Hospital for the poor people out there. Help those needed, I wana be rich in cash but the most important thing is rich in happiness.

SIgn out.

Strawberry Milk Shake

" Do judge a book by it's cover" or " do not judge a book by it's cover"? The fact is people DO judge a book by it's cover. This mostly happen at the work place or boutiques. This is proven for most of the time and it happened to me most of the time.

I'm a guy who dont dress up when i visit show room or fine dining. One incident happen 4 years ago right after me final paper for the semester.
A friend called "T" suggest that we go for a nice lunch to celebrate and he suggested we go for lunch at restaurant nearby to the campus called MEE n RICE. In our mind we know that the food will cost us a little bit more but for the End of Semester celebration majority has voted for it so we decided to have a try.



Once we enter....
The waiter greet " Welcome" and passed the menu to us. Damn! The price was quite costly, a plate of mee costs about RM14 where some other place may cost us just around RM3.50.
Each of us take our order and my friend "T" ordered a Strawberry Milk Shake for his drink. Yummy.....

After 5 mins.........the waiter came and put a "pad" for each of us so he may place our drinks. What he did was he place it like "throwing freesbee ". RUDE!!!! It seems like we dont have the right to have our lunch at their place because we a young a dress up with our T and Jeans. Ok FINE!!! When that Waiter serve his last drink to us suddenly the Strawberry Milk Shake fall on T body. Haha here comes our Strawberry story.....

Sorry sir sorry sir.... That waiter apologize to my friend T, both of them went to toilet and clean up themselves. What we do was........ AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA LOL !!!! and at the same time we called up the captain and questioned him. "Why your staff is so rude to us? Why dont he serve us politely? We have money to eat so do not judge us with our outfit ok. "

Even though we are students but we afford to enjoy nice and expensive food. Hehe dont think student has no MONEY. We may have more money that those people with credit card debtsss. Ahah! Gotcha

He is in deep shit now ! The captain started to apologize for their bad service and compliment Mr. Strawberry Shake a new drink.Ok fine. Mr Strawberry Milk Shake (SMS) finally came out from the wash room and look at us. "Shit! " is the first word came out right after he sit.
The Captain serve us with our lunch after that and we was enjoying our lunch for the whole one our with the joke until now we still bring it up during the gathering.

It was funny for us but bad experience for the waiter, captain and the worst was Mr. SMS haha.
So i believe that if each of us "do NOT judge the book by it's cover" treat everybody fairly things wont gone bad like what we thought it would be.

Think back, without the garbage man we wont have a cleaner place to leave.
Without a sewage maintainer we wont have a good sewage system.
SO people treat other fairly. A lesson for everyone of us. INCLUDE me

cheers

Feng Shui Alex

To understand about feng shui has been a passion for me. Applying Lilian Too advise from the book do brought something good for me. After I tied a "3 old dimes" chain at the back of my front door knob, and some peacock feathers on the way up to the second floor, i have received 3 calls that required me to attend the interview. Hmm............. seems working.....hehe not bad
That was past....

Time fly, i have working for the BANK for 4 months but i dont see any progress on me. Life is just like a landslide for me or maybe the work "Tsunami" suit me more. My boss started to make noise asking why am I not performing compare to the rest. Saying me slow, not good enough and ...........boringggggggggggggggggggggggggggg....So after days of consideration, I called up a Feng Shui Master at Bangsar, a well known master fengshui that can predict accurately. So i was looking forward to meet him for some prediction hints on my career. Typical "chinese".



Appointment has been set on the day it self. The night with Master Alex was full with suprises and doubt. WOnder what he has predict going to be true or not. Saying my career will be alright, it take some times for me to achieve my goal. I'm going to be successful person by the age of 30. Making money from the age of 23 to 32...Hmm "Sure or not?"

From my experience,

" I have been losing money since the age of 23 until now ,I have been cheated 5000 by a bloody "lala chai". after few months my worker broke his leg and i have to pay for 7000 for the operation fee and my bloody uncle betray my dad trust and money. Damn useless uncle, and work for a low pay job"

The master mentioned, Is ok your time will come soon, by April of 2008, my career will be better and keep on moving forward. So we wait and see.He also mentioned that i will spend lot of money on fancy car by the age of 31. Few houses by the age of 40 and so on and My career with the bank will be better soon.

So what do you think?

Can it be true? Maybe better or worst? SHould i trust him? Or just rubbish????

Money or interest?

Been wondering for quite sometime... Whether money or interest is more important when we talk about the Job. This subject has been a dilemma for me since i graduated. My interest is always with the artistic part. Drawing and designing is in me for the past 24 yrs.

During my last semester in University, my uncle offer some designing job to me. The best part was i have to design a fully build kitchen cabinet for a Doctor couple. It was a challenging moment for an IT graduated guy to design it. But it was the most satisfying moment as the couple love my design so much. Not bad for a beginner designer. ( hehehe) Got pay for RM200 for few pieces of drawing blocks. ;-)



Then......... 2 weeks later, aunt called me up. Saying that her friend's wanted to change her beauty saloon concept to a Balinese style. I have charged a total of RM800.00 for the sketches and labor work.

The sad part was i ended work for my uncle for almost a year with a low pay. It was interesting job when we deal with arts but have to accept the fact that i got low pay for a beginner. What a tough time for me to survive.


Nah......... stop with the craps...........

Since then i have quit the job and been looking around for a better pay job without knowing what are the things that i really wanted to do. Now i ended up working in a well known international financial institution. The pay and benefit is always tip top but i don't feel happy ever since............. Going to work is always a nightmare for me............ Stress has been a very good friend of mine since then............ Mr. Stress has been my alarm clock for few weeks. Sleepless nightssss and free morning call at 4a.m is like a routine to me. Horrible.....

I am lost now........ Dont know what i should do. SHould i just quit the job and start all over again or just continue on my job......... God please give me some hints. My wish for the time being is to get a job which i like........Dont mind to get my pay cut a little bit.

So wonder people out there. DO you face the same problem? If so what do u do? Money or interest? Hope i get some people who can guide.
hmm... :-( Dilemma
