As soon as my exam over, I heave a sigh of relief, finally. This is a long absence period which I've missed few years back when I was preparing for my SPM. Being a highly motivated and discipline scholar, I spent every minutes trying to understand theories and memorize facts, equipping myself with winning cards that guarantee me good grades.
Giving myself a day off, I choose to carry on with my reading habits, which I nurtured when embarking my voyage of MBA. Reading "Rich Dad Poor Dad" sparked streaming of thoughts that overflown my mind. "Rat race", quoted from the book, is a boundless race where there is no finishline. People are working hard, hoping for an increase on their monthly paycheck, or promotion, so that they can spend more. When they have eventually being rewarded for a higher pay, their expenses also increase, as to match their lifestyle with a new status. Chasing for more money, is like a donkey chasing for the carrots in front of its nose, dangled by its owner, the boss.
Would you like to be the owner, or the donkey? Truly, I am hoping to be the owner. Learning to let money generating money before spending it, is not easy and is never too late. Yet, the fundamental is, you have to start saving. That's the only way out of the rat race..
