I had talked to several people with more experiences and more senior than me and the conclusion is that I am just being paranoid with those What IF questions and my dilemma.
Ok, questions answered!
Next step is to work toward my goals!
May the force be with me! =D

Dilemma
20080308 marks itself as a very important day in our history. This however created a lot of "What IF" questions for me to answer on crafting my future career path... :-|
Or may be I simply think too much?
Let's hope we will have a better future!
May the force be with us!

What should I do to marry a rich guy?
A young and pretty lady posted this on a popular forum:
Title: What should I do to marry a rich guy?
I ' m going to be honest of what I ' m going to say here. I ' m 25 this year. I ' m very pretty, have style and good taste. I wish to marry a guy with $500k annual salary or above. You might say that I ' m greedy, but an annual salary of $1M is considered only as middle class in New York . My requirement is not high. Is there anyone in this forum who has an income of $500k annual salary? Are you all married? I wanted to ask: what should I do to marry rich persons like you? Among those I ' ve dated, the richest is $250k annual income, and it seems that this is my upper limit. If someone is going to move into high cost residential area on the west of New York City Garden ( ? ) , $250k annual income is not enough.
I ' m here humbly to ask a few questions:
1) Where do most rich bachelors hang out? (Please list down the names and addresses of bars, restaurant, gym)
2) Which age group should I target?
3) Why most wives of the riches is only average-looking? I ' ve met a few girls who doesn ' t have looks and are not interesting, but they are able to marry rich guys
4) How do you decide who can be your wife, and who can only be your girlfriend? (my target now is to get married)
Ms. Pretty
Here ' s a reply from a Wall Street Financial guy:
Dear Ms. Pretty,
I have read your post with great interest. Guess there are lots of girls out there who have similar questions like yours. Please allow me to analyze your situation as a professional investor. My annual income is more than $500k, which meets your requirement, so I hope everyone believes that I ' m not wasting time here.
From the standpoint of a business person, it is a bad decision to marry you. The answer is very simple, so let me explain. Put the details aside, what you ' re trying to do is an exchange of "beauty" and "money ": Person A provides beauty, and Person B pays for it, fair and square. However, there ' s a deadly problem here, your beauty will fade, but my money will not be gone without any good reason. The fact is, my income might increase from year to year, but you can ' t be prettier year after year. Hence from the viewpoint of economics, I am an appreciation asset, and you are a depreciation asset. It ' s not just normal depreciation, but exponential depreciation. If that is your only asset, your value will be much worried 10 years later
By the terms we use in Wall Street, every trading has a position, dating with you is also a "trading position ". If the trade value dropped we will sell it and it is not a good idea to keep it for long term - same goes with the marriage that you wanted. It might be cruel to say this, but in order to make a wiser decision any assets with great depreciation value will be sold or "leased ". Anyone with over $500k annual income is not a fool; we would only date you, but will not marry you. I would advice that you forget looking for any clues to marry a rich guy. And by the way, you could make yourself to become a rich person with $500k annual income. This has better chance than finding a rich fool.
Hope this reply helps. If you are interested in "leasing" services, do contact me

GrandPa
A hat-seller who was passing by a forest decided to take a nap under one of the trees, so he left his whole basket of hats by the side.. A few hours later, he woke up and realized that all his hats were gone..
He looked up and to his surprise, the tree was full of monkeys and they had taken all his hats. he sits down and thinks of how he can get the hats down. While thinking he started to scratch his head. The next moment, the monkeys were doing the same.
Next, he took down his own hat, the monkeys did exactly the same. An idea came to him, he took his hat and threw it on the floor and the monkeys did that too. So he finally managed to get all his hats back.
Fifty years later, his grandson, also became a hat-seller and had heard this monkey story from his grandfather. One day, just like his grandfather, he passed by the same forest. It was very hot, and he took a nap under the same tree and left the hats on the floor.
He woke up and realized that all his hats were taken by the monkeys on the tree. He remembered his grandfather's words, started scratching his head and the monkeys followed. He took down his hat and fanned himself and again the monkeys followed. Now, very convinced of his grandfather's idea, he threw his hat on the floor but to his surprise the monkeys still held on to all the hats. Then one monkey climbed down the tree, grabbed the hat on the floor, gave him a slap and said.............
Guess What????????

Yes! I just did that. Forgotten to take it out from my pants, I soaked my pants together with my pen drive!
Let's hope it will still be working after it dry up in a day or 2...

Last weekend was the convocation for USM students and some friends asked me along to visit the convo session of Saturday evening at USM campus, Penang.
We went there prepared with flowers.
Arriving at the hall, we can see the place already crowded with friends and families of the graduates waiting...
The crowd is still waiting...
The venue: Dewan Tuanku Syed Putra
Finally, the long awaited graduate
Cute isn't she?
However, I want to spoil the scene...
Here I am, creating Beauty and the Beast...
For chess playing friends, guess who I met there...
Congratulations to all graduates!!
