Profit Sharing for Nov!!!

Dividends for November hit a record high yet again!!! Another 3k into my bank account just by doing nothing! Hehe =p

Felt really ironic.

Alot of people around me are readily put a 30k excluding hidden costs into tertiary education, mug hard for 3-4 years to obtian a degree, and settle for a 2k/mth job. But yet, for the same or even less than the amt of money, no additional time commitments and with immediate effect, I'm getting more than 3k/mth. And that's not even close to the maximum potential of the project!

All thanks to "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" by Robert Kiyosaki that allowed me to have a new dimension of finances, as well as to grab opprtunities that come by. Else I would have been like any normal student who are mugging, clubbing, living in their own world and enjoying life, taking up part-time jobs to barely meet their financial output, or even still collecting allowance from parents after the age of 18!!

10 days to KL for my next business trip, 2 weeks to Christmas and 3 weeks to 2007. Only managed to fulfil one of the 3 goals that I set for myself 344 days ago. Time to buck up and set my sights on 2007!

Wireless@SG


Extract from Lianhe Zaobao, 3rd Dec 2006

Felt really disappointed when I read all recent news about the Wireless@SG launch. Slow connection and limited access due to bandwidth limitations are major prob with the whole system. It really brought back memories of how the project first came out, and how close we were to having a chance to change the whole telecommunications industry of Singapore. Things could have been real different as compared to now!

Using the wireless connection in Taichung and Singapore are different experiences altogether. Imagine this technology appearing in Singapore. What a differences it would have made to all users! And it's real high speed!

The bottom test was done when I was in Taichung on a moving bus in Oct, while the one on top was done at home back in Singapore using a 4000kbps service. See the diff?

Well at least for now the services are free, which more or less makes up for the quality (or lack of it). Hopefully all these problems will be resolved by the time they end their free services.
