QUOTE(yklooi @ Oct 21 2021, 05:13 PM) I found this nice and meaning full (at least to me) song after watching House M.D last episode. moderation is the key Guy Lombardo -- Enjoy Yourself, It's Later Than You Think https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFxjnUPRwx4 nicely tuned and meaningful lyric.... You work and work for years and years, you're always on the go You never take a minute off, too busy makin' dough Someday you say, you'll have your fun, when you're a millionaire Imagine all the fun you'll have in your old rockin' chair Enjoy yourself, it's later than you think Enjoy yourself, while you're still in the pink The years go by, as quickly as a wink Enjoy yourself, enjoy yourself, it's later than you think You're gonna take that ocean trip, no matter come what may You've got your reservations made, but you just can't get away Next year for sure, you'll see the world, you'll really get around But how far can you travel when you're six feet underground? Your heart of hearts, your dream of dreams, your ravishing brunette She's left you and she's now become somebody else's pet Lay down that gun, don't try my friend to reach the great beyond You'll have more fun by reaching for a redhead or a blond Enjoy yourself, it's later than you think Enjoy yourself, while you're still in the pink The years go by, as quickly as a wink Enjoy yourself, enjoy yourself, it's later than you think You never go to night clubs and you just don't care to dance You don't have time for silly things like moonlight and romance You only think of dollar bills tied neatly in a stack But when you kiss a dollar bill, it doesn't kiss you back Enjoy yourself, it's later than you think Enjoy yourself, while you're still in the pink The years go by, as quickly as a wink Enjoy yourself, enjoy yourself, it's later than you think then try to reflects if trying to save as much money or being frugal to the extreme just to squeeze the last drops of money earned to the max just to want to keep up with / wanted to be with the joneses that had retired early wongmunkeong liked this post

QUOTE(Ramjade @ Aug 25 2025, 05:38 PM) Bro, adult ICU all got. But baby ICU only Sunway and SJMC got. Not cheap. One night RM5-10k. Not cheap.You need hospital with neonatologist. but if think again 55 still young lorr...Normal birth is around 4-6k. Depending on hospital. 9k is expensive. It's both. 1. Safety first. 2. Yes can you afford? I know I cannot afford. I know the length of cloth on my body. We know our financial capability. It's not don't talk. Is don't live the atas life. Don't drive benz BMW, no overseas trip. Like I said live like B40 and you will see that they Memang have to expose. But cannot let them live the good life. I will expose them early to investment but no pampered life, no overseas trip. FIRE should be in 30-40. Not 50 tun M already 100... we can do it also.. hehehe still got >45 more years to rot in the world... |

QUOTE(Ramjade @ Aug 25 2025, 07:33 PM) Actually not only us but western parents also faced this issue. Those FIRE blogger/youruber. Some successful, not successful in swaying their kids over. when retired, i don't need to spend much, so just minimalist ok already.If you feel young then it is young. I know by hook or by crook I am not going to work at 45 years old. Time to step back. You and I live every different life. No way you can live my life and no way I can reach your life. I am lower M40. Trying to make myself into T5. You are T1. basic passive/epf income 1.7k or less is sufficient to stay at PPR or blk kampung... go north side or east coast can cut cost even more... i bet those outskirt areas still have many cheap houses to rent out.... no need big car, used bike/ car 20 year old perodua myvi/ bezza also sufficient. will probably stay at home and do some gardening... |
