BananaStatio: Goodbye my companion.

June 2009…
I found 3 kittens around my working place. Finally I know where Yellow hide her kittens. From that time, I feed the kittens everyday.
One day one of the kitten(Male) which I name it as Gailus bites me when I catch him just for petting purpose. Since he bites me, I feel that he is ungrateful creature. From now on, I will not feed him. Yes only him. Whenever he comes near to food I will put my cigarette at his forehead.
Been days since I do that. He still stubborn and ignore the cigarette burning his forehead. Slowly I started to feed him again with his siblings.
A few days later I catch him again, OUCH~! this time not bite once… But bite so hard + scratch too hard too.

July 2009
Already almost been a month since I feed them everyday. My kittens I name them. Male – Gailus. Female – Vakyria and Lemon.
Gailus and Valkyria are friendly with me, but Lemon are abit shy. I can see Gailus always lick Lemon and always go near to Lemon. Valkyria always go to Gailus, but Gailus seems no response.

August 2009
Lemon went missing… A few days later comes a lost kitten. Male panda colour. I adopt him and name him as Putih. Valkyria seems not so welcome Putih, but Gailus neutral to Putih. The next day I find out that Gailus and Putih become great companion as if they are siblings. Around 2 days later Valkyria went missing.

September 2009
I train Gailus to do some tricks.
Around 3rd week of September (Friday), my friend Albert asked me to adopt a stray kitten which he got it from garbage. Since I do feel sympathy to that kitten I do have no choice but to adopt him as well. Gailus and Putih seems do not welcome him. Gailus just ignores the newcomer… but Putih attacks the newcomer. Gailus went missing on the next day. Feeling sad as Gailus is the cat that I adore the most.
Since Gailus missing, everyday when I offduty I drive slowly(20kph) home. Whenever I see stray cats which is orange colour, I will stop my car and come down to see if that is Gailus.

13th November 2009, as usual I drive slowly. I saw two cats sitting at mamak store. I stop my car there. That day I have cough. The moment I saw an orange cat, I cough before I have the chance to MEOW that cat. The moment I cough that cat comes to me. His meowing voice makes me confirm that he is Gailus. He looks cleaner than he was when he with me but he getting thin. I look left and right see if someone looking at me. Since nobody there, I just take him into my car. Usually other cats if they go inside a car they will make alot of noise. My Gailus seems just the same as before(when I brings him for drive by last time) that confirms me that I found my cat.

18 Nov 2009
I send Gailus to vets because he refused to eat for already 2 days. Refused to eat and drink but still active like a normal cat. Out from vets at 20 Nov 2009. White Blood Cell Count = 8720.000 . After out from vets Gailus seems still active as usual, and situation seems improve. He eats but not as much as usual.

25 Nov 2009
I have to send Gailus to vets because he refused to eat and drink again(already third day) and he looks pale. This time is worst than a few days ago. This time he just stay(sitting) in a corner without even moving even though he still breathing.
The vets said that Gailus have Viral infection which can be fatal to cats. Gailus have 50% of surviving chances.
White Blood Cell count on 26Nov = 1500
White Blood Cell count on 28Nov = 50
Now even the vets said that there is no hope for Gailus. The moment I visit him, he keeps on meowing at me. When I near to him, he just look at me helplessly and I could see he crying as his eye looks wet. I do not feel anything at that time, but the moment he start look breath extremely slow that is the moment I feel something flowing from my eyes without me control it. I just can’t control my tears. Everytime I wanna leave the room he will meow at me again. When I near to him again, he will stop meowing. Seeing him so suffer I have no choice but to put him to sleep. Gailus seems asking me to be strong as the time I say “If you want to live, please stand up!” He did that eventhough his body is very very weak. Goodbye my companion. I will always remember you.

May you rest in peace.

Inside the mind of Singapore’s Youngest Millionaire ….. By Adam Khoo

Some of you may already know that I travel around the region pretty frequently, having to visit and conduct seminars at my offices in Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and Suzhou (China). I am in the airport almost every other week so I get to bump into many people who have attended my seminars or have read my books.

Recently, someone came up to me on a plane to KL and looked rather shocked.. He asked, ‘How come a millionaire like you is travelling economy?’ My reply was, ‘That’s why I am a millionaire. ‘He still looked pretty confused.

This again confirms that greatest lie ever told about wealth (which I wrote about in my latest book ‘Secrets of Self Made Millionaires’). Many people have been brainwashed to think that millionaires have to wear Gucci, Hugo Boss, Rolex, and sit in first class in air travel.

This is why so many people never become rich because the moment that earn more money, they think that it is only natural that they spend more, putting them back to square one.

The truth is that most self-made millionaires are frugal and only spend on what is necessary and of value. That is why they are able to accumulate and multiply their wealth so much faster. Over the last 7 years, I have saved about 80% of my income while today I save only about 60% (because I have my wife, mother in law, 2 maids, 2 kids, etc. to support).

Still, it is way above most people who save 10% of their income (if they are lucky). I refuse to buy a first class ticket or to buy a $300 shirt because I think that it is a complete waste of money. However, I happily pay $1,300 to send my 2-year old daughter to Julia Gabriel Speech and Drama without thinking twice.

When I joined the YEO (Young Entrepreneur’ s Organization) a few years back (YEO is an exclusive club open to those who are under 40 and make over $1m a year in their own business) I discovered that those who were self-made thought like me. Many of them with net worth’s well over $5m, traveled economy class and some even drove Toyotas and Nissans (not Audis, Mercs, BMWs).

I noticed that it was only those who never had to work hard to build their own wealth (there were also a few ministers’ and tycoons’ sons in the club) who spent like there was no tomorrow. Somehow, when you did not have to build everything from scratch, you do not really value money. This is precisely the reason why a family’s wealth (no matter how much) rarely lasts past the third generation. Thank God my rich dad (oh no! I sound like Kiyosaki) foresaw this terrible possibility and refused to give me a cent to start my business.

Then some people ask me, ‘What is the point in making so much money if you don’t enjoy it?’ The thing is that I don’t really find happiness in buying branded clothes, Jewellery or sitting first class. Even if buying something makes me happy it is only for a while, it does not last. Material happiness never lasts, it just gives you a quick fix. After a while you feel lousy again and have to buy the next thing which you think will make you happy. I always think that if you need material things to make you happy, then you live a pretty sad and unfulfilled life.

Instead, what makes ME happy is when I see my children laughing and playing and learning so fast. What makes me happy is when I see my companies and trainers reaching more and more people every year in so many more countries. What makes me really happy is when I read all the emails about how my books and seminars have touched and inspired someone’s life. This happiness makes me feel really good for a long time, much much more than what a Rolex would do for me.

I think the point I want to put across is that happiness must come from doing your life’s work (be in teaching, building homes, designing, trading, winning tournaments etc.) and the money that comes is only a by-product. If you hate what you are doing and rely on the money you earn to make you happy by buying stuff, then I think that you are living a meaningless life.

WingzOfChaos: You still want to be treated fairly?

People want others to treat them as equal
However,they never consider about others
They don’t treat others fairly and biased
They don’t need to be treated fairly
Why?
They don’t deserve any self righteousness
They want fair?
I shall give it to him
CHAOS
CHAOS is FAIR!
