Wow... my first blog!

I guess I should start by writing a bit about myself so that you can make sense of my rantings later on. I'm an average Malaysian who was born and grew up there. Like many brainy people, I got myself a university education. Then I spent a few years abroad (on that part of the world called Europe) and did a lot of growing up while I was there. I finally came home because the weather (winter and I don't get along) and the bland food finally got to me.

Malaysia is definitely the most wonderful place on earth. Take my word on it. Those years abroad made me appreciate how wonderful Malaysia is. The mult-racial, multi-culture, multi-everything elements make Malaysia truly unique. Where else can you find such a unique blend of culture. Anyone who loves food should definitely visit (and stay) in Malaysia. How I miss Malaysian food when I was abroad!!!

Upon returning home, I found myself a job - like most normal people. I was quite happy doing what I was doing until all the office politics got to me. Anyone who has been an employee can surely relate to this.

I'm a book worm and I LOVE to read. While browsing the books in MPH one day, I came across Robert Kiyosaki's "Rich Dad, Poor Dad". That book changed my perspective of life and what I want to do. And so began my quest to be financially independent. More on that later.
