don’t take good living for granted

Wine, cigar, gourmet food, good friends, happy times - that’s what many expect when you discuss on what ‘good living’ is. Good health is just as important as well as the presence of frequent vacations - beach vacations, Las Vegas vacations, cruises, romantic getaways, luxury stays…etc.

But in different parts of the world, good living is […]

weekends, a time spent with loved ones

Weekends make me glad. It’s been a tiring week of meeting datelines at work and today promises to be a good break for me. While hubby meets with his futures broker, I’ll be shopping with my preschooler for some home appliances and groceries for the week. Then we have to attend a thanksgiving party of […]

now you too can learn how to publish a book

I used to think that you need to know how to write well to start a blog. If you ask me, I never thought that I would be writing a blog or writing articles for any site. But since 2006, I started blogging and the learning curve in the last 2 years had been amazing!

a nice mother’s day outing

My mom and myself had a nice lunch at a Japanese restaurant on Mother’s Day. After lunch, I took her shopping for a new rice cooker since the old one hasn’t been working like before. At this age, mom wouldn’t know much about online appliance or appliance parts shopping so to feel and see the […]

anyone hate simon cowell?

While I know some people hate his straight-forwardness but I personally think his comments at American Idol are worth listening to. Simon Cowell had made IL DIVO so famous that they really had him to thank. I have to agree at some point that someone has to play Nicey on the judges table and we […]

thoughts on real estate

There are few people in this world who never experience rough spots financially. Many of these people are denied traditional home loans because of their inability to cover debts properly in the past. For this reason they are often willing to pay for the privilege of rebuilding their credit while working towards a path of […]

a gift for our anniversary

It’s always a dilemma for me when it comes to buying a gift for my other half on our anniversary. I know it sounds kinda old fashion but I used to do things like breakfast in bed and preparing a home cooked meal for the past celebrations. Perhaps, I should get him a pocket […]

real estate investment

My hubby is a strong believer of property investments. He believes that rental properties are another excellent way to make money for those who are willing to deal with a long-term commercial real estate investment. In this type of investment money is made each month to either pay or contribute to the mortgage and funds […]
