What file extension am I?

Found out this quiz from another blog, I’m a .ogg …… What a weird file extension, that explains the description I got.

You are .ogg Even though many people consider you cool and happening, a lot still find that you're a bit too weird to hang out with.

My 2006 resolution

In 2006, I will

1) Manage my time better.
I want to stop working overtime at my job so that I can have more time to build my own “dream job”.

2) Eat healthier.
Cut down on junk food intake and to cook instead of eating out. Eat my vitamins regularly.

3) Read less, do more.
I spend a lot of time researching on the internet and sometimes I get distracted by all the other interesting things it leads to. I will apply more of what I learn and stop reading the theories.

Why I don’t use paid to surf programs…

I have been referred by my friends to join numerous paid-to-surf programs such as cashfiesta, studio traffic, etc. and I always give a straight “no”.

I do not consider this a passive income, it’s just another quickie to make money. As most of you notice at my front page, I’m concentrating on long-term residual income… something that pays me monthly and gives me the security that the cheques are coming. Not something that comes and goes (which I have seen paid-to-surf programs do over the years). Besides, how long are these companies going to last? A lot of paid-to-surf programs doesn’t last because we, smart humans, don’t just click on ads… we invent software to automatically click them. Do you think you will be happy that your website are visited by robots if you are an advertiser on the paid-to-surf program? Of course not!

Why I Can’t Live Without Firefox

I tried… I really tried….

I couldn’t help it… I just had to download FireFox at my office! Surfing the internet just sucks with Internet Explorer.

If you don’t have FireFox, you are missing out a browser that’s simple, speedy and expandable. Here are top 5 reasons why FireFox is my favourite browser.

1) It is SUPER fast

Enough said, Internet Explorer’s a slow poke.

2) Tabbed Browsing
My most used feature on FireFox browser is tabbed browsing, this saves me from clouding up my taskbar with every website that I open. Here’s a quick comparison:

FireFox tabbed browsing. One browser, multiple sites.

The seniority complex

This is a cycle that has repeated millions of times in life which I call “the seniority complex”. You know those time when you are in college and you talk to a graduate (who just started work) about your frustrations in college? They’ll say, “College life is the best, you should enjoy it now while you are there”.

Okay, fine. Then when you start working and you complain that the first few weeks you have nothing to do in the office, the seniors will say “Enjoy it while you can, because there will be a lot of work in the future”.

About me

Hi,

Currently I work in an accounting firm as an associate consultant, making ends meet. So why should you visit a site about building wealth created by someone like me?

That’s because I am not someone who inherited millions, I’m 22 years old and starting out from scratch, just like you (most of you), to retire early. I moved out of my parents’ house and found a job in the city to be financially independent: pay my own bills, rent and expenses while I learn to create passive income. Staywealthy.com is about sharing my interests, knowledge and experience from my ups and downs. If others can turn their life around, achieve financial freedom and attain their desires, so can you and I.
