Safe Investments for Recession

Times are bad. Day after day, news of retrenchment, layoffs and shutdowns keep making into the news headlines. People like me who are working in the manufacturing industry is fearing the worst, as the most badly hit industry no doubt will be us. At times I wished I had some gold coin safely tucked somewhere. At least that will provide me with some security just in case things got worst.

Right now the factory seems to be still operating, albeit production is in a smaller scale. I really pray that things will pick up next month. Its hard to predict the future, but at least if my job is back to normal, at least I don't have to worry too much.

Brief Update: I am Working Right now!

Time flies really fast nowadays, isn't it?

From ranting about assignments, projects, exams and internship, it is time to rant about work, colleagues and stress right now!

Can't say that I have a lot to rant, not because I have the perfect job, but I just don't see the point in rambling about things that I can't change, and if I could, I shouldn't waste time rambling about it.

It all boils down to attitude.

So I resolve to maintain a positive outlook. Be happy, don't sweat the small stuffs.

Time flies, whether we realize it or not, so its not worth wasting my youth worrying about unnecessary stuffs. :D

Online Trading

Back then, in the olden days, the only option to invest in the share market is either through a third party, which means through a remiser or broker. The broker gets a part of the profit, and even if it is a loss I guess the broker still had his share of profit. I could still remember there were countless of small time investors in the trading company waiting anxiously for the day trading options and to see the ups and downs of their particular share. That was back then.

The world of internet change everything. From something as complicated and time consuming such as calling up the broker and waiting at the trading company, investors can now sign up for day trading option and buy or sell their shares anytime and anywhere, so as long as there is internet connection. This convenient option even eliminates the use of broker, and I could say that that saves you some amount of money as well.

The good thing about day trading option, is that, you get to view trends and graphs and all the analysis online before deciding, and even if you are new to share investments there are aplenty gurus out there offering help. So if you plan to invest and don't know where to start, you could always try reading up on online trading before deciding.

Online Casino

I bet many of the avid gamblers and slot machines fans are itching when they can’t get to play their games, so the next best thing from a brick and mortar casino will be online casino that looks like the real casino, feel like the real casino and even lets you win or lose money like a real vegas casino.

Then online gambling websites began to gain popularity. Honestly, it is really fun to play casino games such as Poker, Black Jack, online slots and Texas Hold ‘em in an online casino environment, and to top that off,its free. Can you imagine, free slots? Not that I’ve played them in real life before, but I am just curious. I did download some of those addictive casino games and play them off line, but without real money betting it feels less exciting like the real thing where the excitement of win or lose is really thrilling. I personally know a few of my friends who keeps going all the way to the casino just to feel the excitement of winning and losing. Of course, they would hope to win. Online casino eh, I must try them out some time.

You know what, even without the holiday, every one deserve a good holiday every now and then to refresh and rejuvenate the body and mind. A stay at hilton head will make wonders in lifting up your spirit. I don't know about you, but I think hilton head south carolina is a cool place for a holiday, and if I can afford it I will definitely pack my luggage now. Unfortunately, hilton head island can only be a dream island getaway for me, as I get stuck in my peanut paying job, hanging on just so that I could pay my bills. How sad is my life eh? You bet I am so not gonna paste the brochures on my wall to remind myself of my pathetic life.

Gold coin Investments

The prospect of working sounds like a drab to me, but its not like I've got a lot of choices, so like it or not, I have to get myself a 9-5 job and work my ass of for some decent salary that enables me to pay rent and buy food. Being in the country where the government seems like a joke, trying to survive takes a lot more than just working hard. Maybe I should look into some form of investment at the side. Choices such as forex, share market and gold coins might be something that can be look upon. I must save some money to do some investments.

Parking Space

Parking space. One of the things that are sorely lacking around the campus. Most of the time when there's some event going on, you bet I have to walk so far that I might be better off walking to work from home.

You might ask, why not walk instead, if it is so near?

Its not the lazy bum reason, it has more to do with security. With the increase of crimes targeting students, it is just not safe to walk on the road anymore, regardless if it is daylight or night time.

Better drive to campus than risk being a statistic. After all, if anything happens, the victim gets more blame than the criminal.

Safe and stylish Kids Furniture

KIDS FURNITURE, have you ever thought of getting them for your kid's room?

I always thought that kid's furniture are a waste of money. After all, kids do grow up, and what are we to do with all those small pieces of furniture? It will be a waste no? However, after learning more about furniture for kids I came to know that the furnitures are not only small in size suitable for kids, but they are all kids friendly, with features such as padded and rounded corner, so that the kids will not accidentally hurt themselves, unlike our normal furniture, which might look nice but not as kids friendly, with those awkward designs and sharp corner sometimes.

So if you have kids at home, at least take a look at the safety features of the kids furniture before purchasing.

About Love

Love is just so superficial, isn't it?

Nothing lasts forever. Even engagements could be annulled, marriages end in divorce. Everything is in constant change that you would doubt whether the person you are with right now will still be compatible with you a few months down the road. Heck, even a six year relationship that has been cemented with engagement and moving towards registration of marriage broke apart, let alone couples with no commitments.

Why, oh why, is love dead already?
