This friend is a super investor and trader, by the way.
He doesn't have to work anymore but he has a job that is pretty undemanding and pays relatively well.
He works because he wants to and not because he has to.
Sometimes, I wonder if I worked too hard in my younger days and missed out on having fun.
Oh, well, I will just have to catch up with having fun now.
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. What about all play and no work?
Bad Jack! Bad Jack!
Oops.
Bad AK! Bad AK!

Hi AK,
LOL I need to learn from F. ^_^
Regards,
Matt
Hi Matthew,
I should learn from F too. ;)
I also need to learn from F too.
Hi Solace,
Maybe, F should consider conducting classes. ;p
Hi AK,
If F is still in SAF, he cannot moonlight, hence he probably won't be conducting classes soon.
Hi Matthew,
Having investment assets is a tricky issue for F too. -.-"

You sound like me when I was young.
Only wanted to stay at home and play computer games all day.
Now I am thinking of working instead.
Am I wiser now compared to last time?
AK said...
I have had enough of the working world, thank you very much. ;p
I will take your share of computer games and you can have my share of work. :D
