I’ve started my first blog on this website, but I left it alone for a week because I had no idea how I was going to begin in my first post.
You see, I strongly believe that if you’re going to start a blog, you better be darn sure that you’re leaving a good impression on the people that come to visit. Sounds like quite a hassle, but I’ve got so much I want to share with the world, I have no idea how else to do it.
So did I figure out a fantastic way to start this blog? Yes I have. And it’ll start with a Singaporean movie, Singapore Dreaming.
This touched my heart for two reasons:
- I am Singaporean after all, and all those matters discussed in the movie are close to my heart.
- I have just embarked on a career as a financial planner aka insurance agent.
For those who aren’t quite familiar with the Singaporean culture, let me just give you a brief run through of what our lifestyles are like:
- We go to school, and always aim for the top, be it colleges, universities, etc.
- We get out and start looking for jobs.
- We work at our jobs and then find things to complain about.
- We pray and pray to strike the lottery but never do. (some don’t even buy the lottery and yet they pray to win)
Maybe that’s pretty much life everywhere, but I must say that we do complain a lot, even though our lives could’ve been much worse. We strive and strive and we are barely happy.
What would I want to accomplish with this blog?
I want to share with people what I have learnt about money, and perhaps to learn a little more about money from kind souls who are wandering around the internet. I make no claims to being rich and famous, nor would I want to be (famous that is, I would love to be rich!). Knowledge is key in our information age, and that is what I hope to share.
A forum will be set up soon whereby membership will be free. Monthly Newsletters will be sent out as well to reach as many people as possible. Knowledge is power, and we shall be as kings!
Here’s to our journey together! Cheers!
