 What’s the cost of your salary? It’s your time, your youth, your energy, your lost moments/memories with loved ones, your health (physical and mental). Weigh that to ensure your cost of salary is below your salary.  Early in your career, your cost will be high but that’s likely unavoidable. But make sure you quickly get to a stage where is lower and lower over time.  After you have sufficient resources to not depend on a full time job, your cost of salary will sky rocket. It will take a lot to make you want to get the salary. Flexi hours, short hours, meaningful work, good colleagues, generous benefits and pay. Don’t compare with others. Don’t show off. Don’t give unsolicited advise to others.  No two persons are the same. Their circumstances will differ, their desired lifestyles will differ. Respect that

  Been a roller coaster... Due to changes in USD vs SGD strengths Due to volatile NASDAQ stocks Due to SG stock market movements (but this one is mostly up, and on a bull!) Hopefully 2026 brings peace and some prosperity The above included about $150k of dividends collected Of course the above is nett after Uncle's expenses lah. No need to makan meh? lol The above doesn't include equity in Uncle's home. That is likely around $1.8-$2M SGD Uncle's lao pok car? that's neutral now (resale value covers outstanding loan)

 We have at our disposal today many free to use AI  Most allow you to create images and even videos everyday up to a limit before you have to get a paid account Multiple this by millions of users… How much energy are we using for these?  What is the output used for? ATM, I feel the outputs are just entertainment and exploration.  Hopefully this phase ends soon and people get bored and the real useful use cases are pursued next Else it’s extremely wasteful 

 The SG Internet and Reddit and hwz and sammyboys are awake with lots of activities since last night. A internet famous property agency founder and his subordinate lady was filmed apparently after a tryst in an office. The reason it went viral isn’t his because it was filmed and they are very visible on social media due to their work.  It’s because he’s a successful businessman, built a successful property agency from scratch and is probably a role model for many aspiring people in this line and in general as how to make it in Singapore. He is married and has kids. And his subordinate lady, easily 10-15 years his junior and recently married too. What a fuckery thing this is. But I guess they are all adults and they know it’s fire and they know the consequences if it burns them. Fuckery happens everywhere, behind closed doors, among apparently decent people. Same sex, group sex, all weird shit. So who am I to judge? Maybe one day I’ll go mad and do the same.  And people wi...

 Don’t brag. Don’t tell unless asked Just keep low profile while working privately on your own goals.  No pressure, no external influences or unsolicited advice.  Just be true to your values and get it done  Then hold your head high when you made it.  Still, remain humble, because you don’t control everything so you definitely had luck to some extent to thank for 

 As a full grown adult, most of us manages our own life. But in reality, most of us cannot control bulk of our life. The control comes back when you have resources: financials, mental and physical. All must be present Then you truly become the CEO of your life. Plan, manage and allocate resources, and set targets and self assessment  Don’t live a life of wanton consumption or leisure. That’s a choice but not a very good one of a single shot living experience here on earth
