QuotesofWisdom — Be Yourself

We live not to please others. Your every action is bound to have people who are displeased with what you do. Don't stress over it. As long as it is not against your conscious, do not care about others. You can only live your life once.

iSAVvy: Financial Independence — The Lows

Low on cash? What have you been spending on? Image from: Photo by  cottonbro  from  Pexels Financial independence is essentially able to sustain your lifestyle with the amount of money you have without working. This is one of life’s most difficult problems everyone has and many are unable to overcome it. —— Dickson Idlier I am not a financial consultant. What I wrote here is purely my opinion. The road to my financial independence is essentially be low on debts and expenses and high in investments and assets. How to control your expenses and debts depends on what is essential to you. I prefer rejecting any instalments (debts) whenever possible and have a simple lifestyle. After these, then build up your savings, investments and assets. This is how I did without many details but I think it is the easiest to get started. Ways to keep a low debt and expenses: Food is essential but not all kinds of food. Try keeping food expenses low but not compromising on quality. Reduce ...

Image from: Mewatch.com Country: China Genre: Gaming, Time Travel Release Date: 2020 Rating:  ★★★ ★★ I just finished watching this drama on Mewatch.com. This is one of the best dramas that I have ever watched, especially since it is on esport. Initially, I wanted to watch it due to an esport drama, but it turned out to be such an excellent drama.  The drama is about 2 esport players for Crossfire game, XiaoFeng (Seven), a team leader for 1coin team in the year 2008 and another is XiaoBei (North), team leader for Continue team in the year 2019.  They somehow managed to contact each other through this game during an accident.

@MsiaTrip: First Johor Bahru Shopping Trip after Covid-19

     This is my first trip to Malaysia, Johor Bahru (JB) after Covid-19. I went with my wife and her friend. This is the first time for my wife's friend to visit Malaysia. Earlier heard the jam at Malaysia custom or Causeway bridge made me worried how long we need to clear the Malaysia custom.       We travel to Kranji MRT station to take SBS Transit Bus 170, 170x or 160. This is the usual route I take to Malaysia, JB. My wife wanted to try taking the train to Malaysia, but the timing is not suitable so I rejected it. Another reason is I am not familiar with how to go to Woodlands Train Checkpoint. I am not comfortable to use a route I am not familiar and also need to try out my favourite route.      We left about 9am from Pioneer MRT station and noticed that this timing has lesser crowd. Maybe I will stick with this timing since it is pretty crowded when we left at 10 - 10.30am. With a stroke of luck, we cleared the custom about 12.40pm...
