Revival...

Of my habit to read. Well, there has never been a total break from reading for me. But for the past few weeks after ending Deepak Chopra's "SynchroDestiny," I found myself quite lost as to what books to pick up.

But well, thanks to Shirin (if she ever reads this blog I hope she's happy I thank her here), a colleague of mine, I managed to read "Rich Woman" authored by Kim Kiyosaki, Robert's wife and investment partner.

And if you were to ask me to value the book...I believe it will offer very interesting perspectives(esp to woman, duh) on top of Rich Dad Poor Dad...in fact...RDPD is a pretty boring book...other than the small sections when Robert describes his life story and does some general story telling...otherwise it's kinda monotonous...But RW seems to be very lively...and I found a general approach to drawing up an investment plan...And for that section, it definitely is worth reading. In fact, I'm gonna read it once thru again and write out my own plan...

Now, who knows I'm attached? Haha...well I am, and happily so for nearly 4 years. Something my gf gave me nearly a year back, a set of MPH vouchers, actually led to me getting "Retire Youn Retire Rich" today. And I never quite thought of getting that book...in fact, I've never seen it on the shelves anywhere before.

But the coincidence of the moment prompts me to buy and consume the knowledge in the book in all earnestness. And I shall report if I find anything interesting.

For now, my job appears stable and simple and I have my dream of getting a customer service position fulfiled!
