::getting my porsche, my fashion consultant and my nose surgery::

well, i'm so bored now....... and so here i am........ i havent been blogging about what i have been up to, but i still dont intend to.......... but i'm jus upset over a few things in life when i think it thru......

anyhow, yeah... past few days, some serious shit has happened. my nose has bled quite frequently. its either i have been drinking alot thus heaty or because due to my fight 8 years ago, and now tht my nose is growing, the walls of my nose has rubbed against each other.... i'm gonna see one of the best nose doctor/surgeon on jan 2. http://www.entoms.com/eng/profile_abtDoctor.html - well, he is suppose to be one of the best around.. and it being located in mount.E, its good, in case of any complications, i can always move to the A&E room. well see how it goes, most likely, its gonna be a full nose job. lets see wht the doctor says.

Fashion consultant... well, now tht bianca is gone.... n i dont htink i'm very good at choosing what can make me look the best and i totally dont have time to research on these things due to the high opportunity cost involved, i've decided to jus hire a fashion consultant for men. she charges 100 sgd per hour....... but i guess its ok.. i can try to budget 2k per month to clothing including her fees, it should be more than enough, and i think i can look good! i honestly think its value for money.... i mean, say u buy a boss at 400 sgd, but when u wear, it doesnt look like 400, then wtf..... i rather pay 100 bucks, buy something tht is 100 bucks and looks like its worth 500 bucks!!!!!!!!!!!!! dont u agree!? there u go; http://www.stylecouncil.com.sg/ - she's only free on like mid jan.. so well see, lets hope she doesnt dress me up like this super "gay" guy i met.. haha. paul is his name.. lol.......

my fren mentioned to me, why dont i jus ask a girl out and ask her to go shopping..... well, thts the thing... i can look not bad with the girl's advice or i can look really really good with the fashion consultant's advice... money no longer to me is a big thing.... i prefer value in other things than jus money.... what is money if u cant spend it, so what if u have a billion but u dont know how to enjoy it? seriously.. money is only good if u can enjoy its usage and i must say, i've not been able to utilise it fully, but if there is one thing i dont mind spending money on, is making myself look good and thus feel good. :)

my porscheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee......... i'm pretty set on getting it...... my poker has been world class.. beating the NL games hu like nobodys' business.. made 100k past 2 months from poker... but yeah, i lost 39k last month on soccer due to my experiment which failed badly. but lesson learnt, its hard to be a professional soccer punter... in anycase, the games have gotten fishy these days.. so many fishes.. back to the good old days man.. i dont see how i can make like less than 20k sgd at least per month from poker... not to mention other incomes such as poker affiliate, theasiapoker.com and pokerschool; and if u want to consider birdnestshop.com too..................................... so back to my porsche... yeah......... i thik i'd get a 2nd hand one at 150k sgd....... boxster..... this is the only model with cabriolet(normally the super fast car, they cant have a cabriolet due to the fact that the car will not be stable), its my dream to drive a cabriolet btw.... though the new porsche, they have like super fast speed with a cabriolet(some new technology), but it cost a bomb.. so i cant afford tht shit for now... the question now, is to get an auto, M or (s) for it........ (s) cost 20k sgd more...... should i save it or wht.. but if u look at it, its 15 days of my work.. but then again, i dont think i will speed... so its a double edge sword... we'll see, but most likely, (s) will be the one i am getting.

getting a porsche is not as expensive as it seem actually.... assuming i buy the car 150k...... after the coe expire, i can still scrape the car at least for 80k....... and for tht, i actually lose 70k sgd for maybe 4-5 years of usage.. tht comes down to 15000 per year, 1200 per month for depreciation.. i surely can afford tht..... some argue its a poseur car, boxster.. but u know wht i think, Fxx off...... i use my own money to buy, not my dads, for my age, i think tht is considered a very good achievement! and yes, thts after buying my condo.. so yeah.. Fxxx the critics!

of course i need to get my driving license.. which has been such a bitch to me!.. buttttt..... due to some connections, lets hope i will be able to finish it up in 1-3 months time....

feels better now... but still feel upset deep inside with the society... the way i look at things..... perhaps one of these days, i will start doing charity..... but u see, being me as a person who view efficiency as a quite important thing............................ does it make sense tht i play poker, donate to charity and with the money, the charity can hire 10 equivalent andry to do the work instead of some one like me, whose time is money? u get my point, in terms of efficiency, by donating instead of me doing the work, i am doing more for charity. some might disagree, but at the end of the day, doing charity is about helping the poor, and its not about self-fullment(if tht is, then that is being selfish, doing charity to feel good)... and for me, the most efficient way is to donate my poker winnings :) we'll see, when i am super duper comfortable in life, then i'd go down the route.... now, i am still far from it :)

::growing up real fast::

since 1 year ago, the post sherie period in my life..... i think i have grown up so much..... my outlook of life, my business point of views, my view generally of girls, looking things from a rich perspective instead of poor..... and of course my drinking skills has improved dramastically............... i'm trying to think what have to changed inside me....... its hard to even think of 1.......... i dont even take bus anymore from my house to town :S even though its only 10 mins ride..... cab's the way to go!

-my outlook towards life: generally, i think the main difference is that, for me, money now is no longer money....... its jus a tool..... and its not all that important..... pleasure is more important to me, but nevertheless i hate overpaying for things.... but then again, my thershold for that has changed too........ of course my tolerant level has increased. i like to splurge on myself thts for sure.

-business point of views: hmm...... i wont say tht it has changed, but rather i've evolved to a higher level of thinking...... and in all honesty, the real money is always in business..... not poker..... toriQ is my next idea... we'll see where we can go from there.

-girls: my view towards them.... come to think about it... its still the same thing.....

-from the rich view point of view: hmmmm...... i dont really know how to put it in words or rather i cant think of it at the moment.

and yes, i think somehow this is a very badly done blog from my prespective...... but well, its been 2-3 months since i blogged....... let me get started from somewhere :D.......

poker has been back to the good old days..... my NL has never been better... starting to hit 50k sgd a month.... lots of french fishes and italian fishes.... :D
