Happy Paper Anniversary, Jay

Yes, id like to greet myself on this momentous occasion. It was,
March 03, 2008 : My first day on a full time Job, payed a full time salary.

Earning really feels good. Its quite addictive especially if you lived your whole life with a tight budget everyday. Makes you wana splurge it all in your first few months (some even extend to years). Im glad I was able to resist this, to some extent at least. One of the most important lessons the "Rich Dad" of Robert Kiyosaki (author of best seller "Rich Dad Poor Dad") taught to him was never get addicted to receiving money through a job. This is because you work for the money. The aim is to make the money work for you, right?

As of now, i have had saved 57% of my 1 year worth of salary. Of the 57%, i have only invested 23%. That leaves me 32% still to invest somewhere. I already have my eyes set on something. If everything goes well, ill have it invested sometime mid year.

If that is the case, then id be able to cross off objective number 2 on my 2009 goals list.
How are you on your list? Doing better I suppose. Keep it up! ^.^

Cheers~
