Death of a dream..... beginning of another......

I have always wanted to move back to the east side of the island on a permanent basis but alas I have to face reality, I don't have enough money to do so.... I just have to return back to the northwest part of the island again.

Am I unhappy with the purchase? I don't think so but I guess I am sad I will never stay in the east ever again. Who can I blame but myself for not having enough money to buy even a HDB in the east? Well, like everything else I will get used to life in the west again.

As long as Dear is happy I should be too. Besides, we can easily pay off the remaining loan within a few years, I guess. Yeah, let's just concentrate making it a cosy and comfortable place for us.

Time for bed.

Diarrhoea-like stock market performance

Well, investment in the stock market is really not as easy as I made it out to be. Even though I know that any losses that I suffer at this point in time will correct itself within the next few years, I still need to exercise prudent to make sure this does not happen often else I will be stuck with more equity than cash soon.

Nevertheless, I am fully aware of the need to be cautious and never invest beyond my limit. Never will I repeat the mistakes of my dad. Never.

Cost control mode for the next few months! Only invest by bits and pieces but build my portfolio for the rest of the year!

Diamonds are forever but love is for eternity.....

A very happy beginning to the month for me..... I have finally bought a diamond ring for my dear. Very happy, very nice feeling, and very nervous.... Ha....

Diamonds are forever as they say but I sincerely hope that our love stays strong and firm for eternity.
