There are 2 main categories,
(1) stay with parents but don't live off them. Support them and share in the expenses of the house
(2) stay with parents but live off them. Parents pay for everything, from utilities to food, parents even need to pay for the food and expenses of his wife

So what i am driving at is that this chap belongs to category 2, but still dare to go around telling everyone that my house is his and my business is his too.

There are quite a few useless person in this world. These people are pests in the mortal world. Alot of them will not admit.

People like me who go vietnam to do business are considered LOSERS by most Singaporeans , who see nothing more than the shores of Singapore. But many years later today, i am confident to say that my assets are much more than theirs, both in Singapore and Vietnam.

To each their own, but one thing i know is never look down on others, you just will not know what they will achieve in the future.

only 井底之蛙 still think that singapore can make money; the IR is the last throw of the dice here, 10 years down the road, what new things can singapore come up with? our neighbouring countries have much more potential

Sillypore can make money..
it is just that once there are new ideas, the big fish will come in and makan the small fish faster than any other place. One have to move fast and come out with new ideas. It happen everywhere even in vietnam.

It is never a last throw of dice. If you can predict what is going to happen in Sillypore 10 years down the road, you can jump onto it now. Our neighbouring countries have potential in what area?


everywhere can make money... it is just that who get the bigger pie, who is willing to invest...

Lesson learned yesterday: Do not surf internet/face the PC for too long when wife/partner is around. Spend more time on wife/partner


As usual, after coming home from work, I always switched on my PC. As and when I feel like it, I will surf sbf, soccernet, news, etc.

This time my galfriend is around. While she cook, I face the PC. While she iron my clothes, I face the PC. While she is doing something, I face the PC. While I got nothing to do or not sleeping early, I face the PC. She never complain for the pass few days that she was here. However, yesterday she got fed up and sad that I give my PC and handphone games more attention than her. She started to cry and she that she wanted to go back tio hcmc.

It takes me about an hour to sweet talk and calm her down.

Thinking back on this issue, I was really in the wrong for not paying attention to her. I will have to adjust my lifestyle (not switching on the PC) since she is here. One thing that she say that make s me feel guilty is

"Everyday you go to work, I am always at home wating for you to come home for dinner. I keep looking at the clock but the time of waiting is so long. When you come back, we only have the night to spend together and communicate but you only play your PC/games"

It is very true that on weekdays, a couple usually have the night time together only. We must spend quality time together. This bring back one of the reasons for my failed marriage previously. Every night after work, my former wife had always been on the phone talking to her sis, bro, mum for hours and she neglected my presence.

Mahjong session vs PC games
My friends jio me for MJ session this weekend. I told her that I have not agree to my friends because she is here in sillypore and I do not want to let her be alone at home. Funny thing is that my vietnam galfriend approved my MJ seesion with my friends this weekend although she know that the MJ session will last few hours.

She say that the MJ session is different from facing the PC and neglecting her presence. At least she knows that I have the heart and brain to think of her.

If I were her, I would approve ur MJ session and get angry with ur PC facing too. MJ session means that u communicate with ur friends, build up friendship n make connection. The same to nhau (drinking) in Vietnam. It's common in men social n also the necessary action. While hooking to PC all the time is not.

From D5 to Singviet's 999 cafe (D7)......Tran Hung Dao turns right to Nguyen Bieu, crosses over Cau Chu Y, turns left to Da Nam, turns right
on Pham The Hien, crosses over Cau Rach Ong, along Tran Xuan Soan,
once reached Le Van Luong, turns right. It's just before chợ Tân Kiểng

MJ session is 6-8 hours... within these hours, the guys can go for some fling with gals.

Playing PC game or surf sbf is staying at home by the partner and probably of doing something worng is 0%.

What you choose?

From Q5 to my Cafe in Q7, rough estimate by Xe Om should be within 20 mins.

If I were ur official GF, why can't I accompany with u to that MJ session?
N If u want to go with any other girl, u will find another reason to go out, not only rely on ur MJ session.
Thus, I can't force u only to stay at home to keep my insecurity ratio at 0%!

U n ur gf love each other, not kiem soat each other bro oi!

my experience with thisis that rich gals have expensive tasts and as a normal bf/gf thing like pying for dinners presents etc, you will prob spend more money than spending money and paying for family expenses ifyou ca learn to control your gal
