Can't live without it, though you wish you did.  Insurance.   We all need at least 1 or 2 basic insurance in life, be it life, medical, fire, accident, etc.  We all have that one or two friends who did insurance and when they call you up and say  "Hey, how are you?

Heard of LAZY INVESTING?  Let's face it, some of us are super savvy when it comes to investing and making it grow actively.   Whilst majority of us, are not as proficient.

So what do we do? &nbsp...

Inflation cannot be avoided if growth is happening.  But when your salary increment is less than the inflation rate, trouble happens.

It used to be "Spare the rod and spoil the child". Bringing up children in the previous century were very much hands on and semi dictatorial. Yet most parents would get away with a "Just do as I say" line.....maybe sometimes there's an "or else" at the end of it    However, during this age and time, the task of up-bringing children has differed. There are so many more challenges. More in...

When we take infidelity out of the equation, what other causes are there for marriage to fail?   Because other causes take such a backseat, we do not hear enough of it and therefore do not address the issue or are probably not even aware a problem exist that can put a toll on relationships.   This week, we take the road less travelled and talk about some other uncommon or maybe unpopular...

Ever heard of the expression that "Give everyone a chance to have a piece of the pie" ?   Yet it is quite normal for us to feel that there isn't enough for even ourselves.

Thinking that there are more...

Imagine a well balanced scale, and just a grain of sand can be what it takes to tip the scales to one side.....   THAT is the tipping point....  In everything we do, we usually have to put in effort and persevere and sometimes we may not see the immediate results until much later.    For those with resilience we will go the extra mile, yet for many they may just quit before the...

Are female body builder too chunky for you to date?   Would a regular guy want to go out with a female body builder?  I think many of us when we mention about female body builder we may think of WWE wrestlers and the female participants within in.

Ever heard the phrase " Knowing is half the battle won " ?   Basically it means if you know something, you should do better. Yet most people make poor decisions despite the logic of knowing.   Take for example: A product sells for $1000  But as a marketing gimmick it was on sale at $999  The logic of it is $1 discount  The emotional side of your brain says it's a good deal...

Why do Malaysians look so high upon people with titles.  If you have a Dato, Dato Seri, Datuk, Tan Sri, etc......the general public seem to bestow extra respect and give more leeway to them.   It's probably warranted when those titles are given out of merit.....   But what if those titles are purchased? Not necessarily on merit. Just with cash? Do we still give unconditional privile...

Having the perfect angle for photos, frequent travelling, leading the lifestyle of affluence.... etc....  But in reality they a...

Did you notice the last time you picked up a product or a pack of biscuits, was there some gold emblem or award of some kind printed on to the packaging?  Business awards are aplenty and every other person or business seem to be getting an award of one kind to another.  But are all the awards what it seems? Was it really a recognition or a tooting the horn honorary title? MOST importantl...

"I have no time" "If only I had more time"   These are our common reasons for living the daily grind but not having time to do certain things that matter.  Be it spending time with people who matter, reading a book, exercising, etc.   Never forget that successful people like #Elonmusk #Billgates #Stevejobs all have the same 24 hours as we do, yet they are able to accomplish so much....
