My Mind is Slower Today

I have quotations to type out and calculate the price with more work on the internet but today, my mind is slower due to taking flu medication. Now I am feeling a bit groggy and drowsy - hence my thoughts are not that fast compared to the time when I was well. I should be sleeping or napping but here I am working hard by the computer. I am a workaholic and place work above my health at the moment. Hopefully, the money that I make is sufficient to tide me through my retirement years down the road in several years time.

Down with Flu

Yesterday, after church, I went to see another doctor for the second time for medication for my flu that has been going on for 1 month already. And I have already finished the medication in 4 days for the first visit. Now the other doctor gave me a stronger medication with lozenges to suck and something for my phlegm. It is better now but I am feeling drowsy from the effects of the medicine. Hopefully, in a couple of days time, my flu will be cured and I can enjoy food again like taking cold drinks and fruits.

I Love Gold

I love gold and own a small collection of gold jewellery and a gold coin given by my rich uncle in Singapore who works as a doctor in his clinic somewhere near Tiong Bahru MRT station. The gold coin is about half an ounce in weight bearing the national flower of Singapore. After having kept it for more than 10 years, it is now valuable and a collector's item. You can check out for more gold items in United States Gold Bureau. I have a gold designer's ring, necklace and bracelet all bought with my own savings after working hard all these years. I also own smaller pieces of gold given to me by relatives when I was small.

Offered USD50 for 8 articles

I was offered USD50.00 to write 8 articles of 500 words each from an old client. The good thing about this offer is that I can take my time to write the articles, preferably about 2 per week. I am still in a lazy mood having come back from a business trip to KL recently. Today, I have rejected 3 offers to post for only USD1 each with 300 words. With that number of words, I can easily earn USD3 each. I rather maintain the small number of posts on my blogs for quality. To work consistently, I need to be in the mood and have the motivation to continue to work hard for my retirement years. There is this particular blogger that I hate. She should be retired by now but still struggling to find her calling to make money from the internet - all in vain! Serves her right!

Making Money is Not Easy

Spending money is very easy, but making money is hard. It requires your blood, sweat and tears and total commitment. That is why making money in any venture is not easy. Unless you have rich parents who will take you under their wings and give you a big fat check every month for simple tasks each day - simply by being born rich. Otherwise, most of us will have to slought it out, study very hard and hopefully get a high paying job with lots of stress and compete in the rat race! Which is why until today, I never take my employment for granted even though I work from home for the last 6+ years.

Down with Flu

I have finished my medication and a course of anti-biotics but my cough still remains unchanged. And it is not getting any better but added with a running nose. Looks like my system is resistent to the medication and each time when I cough, it takes weeks to cure. So I have finished my medication, now what. I have also been sneezing too often repeatedly. I have stopped taking Vitamin C as I have read that when you are down with a flu, never take Vitamin C which could aggravate the flu.

I have Worked in a Law Firm Before

I have worked in a law firm for a short stint for my aunt who is an advocate and a solicitor in Shenton Way, Singapore many years back. Well, the law firm is no longer operating now as my aunt is in her seventies now, time to retire gracefully. She handles all cases to deal with property transactions or also known as conveyancing which is more lucrative compared to litigation or fighting it out in court. There are different types of lawsuits that can be brought about by clients like Trasylol Lawsuit or Accutane Lawsuit in the States. It was an eye-opener for me to work for her albeit for a short while. At least I was exposed to the workings of a legal firm with hundreds of clients' files with a good filing system to keep track of so many records.
