Sensationally Thankful for the 166,500 saved since Dec '08

At least I can invest that money(and have !) instead of ruefully wondering why I fed a bloodsucking property owner like I did when I was misguidedly working in Singapore.

Just realised that I was paying rent to some landlord/landlady etc for 160 months of my life, though for many months(2 free months in '93, 23 months in a University Hall for $4 a day, 12 months in NTU Hall 9 for $130 a month) it was quite cheap. And no month in that total was over $360...only two of the last 3 months before I went back to my own country when the rent was $500!

Extremely Grateful for the 343,033.55 earned from stocks in 62 months since Jan '13

I outlasted the lean years in 2015 and 2016  when I earned less than 40,000 each year and am restructuring my portfolio to come up roses even if 2018 turns out to be just as challenging a year or worse!
