6 tips on how to save money on eating
Sunday, December 13th, 2009As you can see i spend roughly RM 400 a month on eating while my fellow friend Seng Choy from Financial Planning DIY spends roughly around RM 700 just on eating. We can clearly see that eating takes a big chunk out from out income.

Davis Cup - Spain retains title defeating Czech Republic
Saturday, December 5th, 2009
Many will be wondering, what on earth is Davis Cup Tennis doing on an investment blog? Anyway, i will be putting Spain victory over Czech Republic in the Davis Cup competition under the Ramblings in categories.
I for one put a lot of interest in this years finals as my favorite player is playing. He is none other then Rafael Nadal. I just don’t know why i don’t like Roger Federer. Sorry to all those Fed-ex fans out there.
Anyway, Spain easily retained their Davis Cup title and winning it for the fourth time out of seven finals appearances.
I guess it is a sweet end to Rafael Nadal season as he had a mixed year in 2009. Nadal gave Spain the early kick start when he defeated Tomas Berdych 7-5 6-0 6-2.
The turning point for Spain came when David Ferrer came back from 2 sets down to defeat Radek Stepanek 1-6 2-6 6-4 6-4 8-6.
The wining point for Spain came from the doubles when the combination of Fernando Verdasco and Feliciano Lopez defeated Radek Stepanek and Tomas Berdych 7-6 (9-7) 7-5 6-2.
Congratulations to Spain and Vamos Nadal! ^^

He will be looking to bring his wife and kids to see the world. I am pretty sure many of us is dreaming for that sort of life. But can we achieve it by then?
How high could gold go?
Thursday, December 3rd, 2009
Million dollar question that many is still wondering. How high could gold go up? It has been hitting new highs week by week. Gold has surged to a new high of US$1226.10 (RM4131.96) an ounce.
I am kind of caught of guard with this rally as i have sold almost all my gold at around RM 115 per gram. I have another 2g in my Public Gold Investment Account (PGIA). Currently the price of gold in gram is around 125 to 130+
To be honest nobody can tell how high gold could go or what is the real value of gold as nobody can predict up or down of an investment. My personal feelings tells me that it has almost reached its peaked. I might be wrong though. Just a personal opinion.
For those of you that are interested to know about gold investment, you all can read my previous post on Buying Gold as investment in Malaysia and 6 advantages in gold investment.
