facelift

it has been a busy week, looking up notes and reading up some books (history, what else?).

And looking through some investment stuff and insurance and all. support the government's call; plan for retirement today and prepare to live past 85 (1 in 2 projected)! hah.

[Just think about it - If you intend (or can) retire at 65, it means you've gotta start stashing up money for this post-retirement period. Assuming your expenditure is 3k/mth (what is 3k/mth in real terms 45 years from now???), it'll work out to 36k p.a., which is 720k for 20 years. Scary. If you start work at 25, you can start putting aside 1.5k/mth. oh, did i mention the possibility that you might live to a Hundred years old?]

oh. and for the less-informed, did you realise that I've changed the blog's template and removed but my last post?
