How u all own car support gf but complain no $$?
Let me help to answer regarding the car,
Assume u calculate a 3 yrs old car he own, if he sell his car now, the car price will not break even with his outstanding loan. He will have to fork out a sum to repay his loan to sell his car. :D
A lot of my friends are stucked with the same situation. Esp for brand new car with 10 yrs loan n very min down payment. They L L have to pay the mthly loan n not sell the car now.

Worry that someone might get offended for saying that "we must face the problems strongly and live on" ....sometimes, some brothers might mis-interpret that we are criticising them for not being strong enough but that is not my intenetion, of course.....
i have met the worst case secnarios too but was given the same advice by an old man.... face the challanges, once you conquered it, you will be even stronger for bigger challanges in live....
till date, i am living with his advice..... ;)
1)owe singtel
2)owe starhub
3)owe m1
4)owe my mother 1k
5)owe other debts ( cam cam cui cui)

Bros,
Let's face it! In SG, it is almost IMPOSSIBLE to be out of debts.....
I had my low time some years back when my business died while I owed 100+k to the banks......I dug myself out from depression and worked my way till today........
What I want to tell all bros here is, if in trouble, rely on your own will power and determination and you definitely can find a way out.....
Good Luck

hahaha the worst part is after the divorce....the cost you have to pay especially for ther lawyer...knn all inflated...and the worst part is i only have one daughter but still pay thousand over for her maintenance and alimony just becos ex wife inflated all her expenses and also suay suay just before that my biz was doing quite ok...but then after everything went down the drain for me...introduce a trusted friend to invest in some biz and then together dump in half a mil but discovered the other party was a con man...lucky friend did not blame me...

Hi Bros, I really so surprise tha so many of you are in low times and some are worst than I have expected bcos I tot I am the poorest of all in Singapore.
I do owe a japanese car made in Thailand which now worthless bcos of Thais ...
Petrol cost going up, loan to pay, roadtax, electric and water bills, parnets allowance (This is one no matter how poor I am need to give) , children education, utliities and Town councul bills, insurance, food, all this add up to at least $3K to $4K ... not to say our own expense ...
It is tough though I am lucky i have a job to keep to maintain my current lifestyle but do not know for how long. The only thing I can do is accuma=ulate cash for at least 2 years cash rich to maintain this kind of life style.
Just live to our limitation is my advise. I used to have only $300+++ during NS time but I survive. The more you earn the more you spend. Those family with 3 children and income of less than $1K still live happily.
Just spend wisely and know that we should wear the hat to our size of our head.
All the best luck to all the brothers here. I feel so lucky comparing to all of you. But may my luck to share with you all ...

I agree with Harrier on his views, I too was once poor fuck earning S$800 a month (B4 CPF). Today I manage to climb back on track but not goin to disclose the sum.
If you give up noe no one inculding god can help u, but if you do not give up people will notice and help u along the way.
Trust me I have travelled a long long way to reach where I am today, I owe all these to all my good friends that have supported me through the bad times and the amount of encouragment they gave along the way.

Haha u r rite but also during that time I managed to see thru a lot of my friends. I remember once I needed S$1K to settle some personal pro, I asked many many friends but all refused.
At that time it was in '97 or '98, trust me to a lot of young adult who juz started working that is a lot of money. During that time I have no choice but to borrow from an Ah Long who happens to be my friend too.
I told him I needed S$1K and how much interest, he told me to meet and talk not too good to talk on the phone. I met him in Bukit Panjang (Famous guy I think alot of people knows who I refering to noe), guess what he told me??
The interest rate is first month a bowl of Wanton Mee, second month Hor Fun , third month Hokkien mee and anything more than that Kopi.
I took 1/2 year to repay back as that time too many pros, he nvr pestered me once to repay. Alot of years later we r good friends and I know he will not look me down when I fell.
This friends are hard to come by and even harder when I am now posted overseas. But with my current situation now I can tell all that standing up today is because alot of my friends choose to support me rather than turn their back on me. As now it is my turn to return the favour (he is getting married in Dec) , I have decided to decicate this post to him and a big big Hong Bao coming his way.

I agree with Harrier on his views, I too was once poor fuck earning S$800 a month (B4 CPF). Today I manage to climb back on track but not goin to disclose the sum.
If you give up noe no one inculding god can help u, but if you do not give up people will notice and help u along the way.
Trust me I have travelled a long long way to reach where I am today, I owe all these to all my good friends that have supported me through the bad times and the amount of encouragment they gave along the way.

Haha u r rite but also during that time I managed to see thru a lot of my friends. I remember once I needed S$1K to settle some personal pro, I asked many many friends but all refused.
At that time it was in '97 or '98, trust me to a lot of young adult who juz started working that is a lot of money. During that time I have no choice but to borrow from an Ah Long who happens to be my friend too.
I told him I needed S$1K and how much interest, he told me to meet and talk not too good to talk on the phone. I met him in Bukit Panjang (Famous guy I think alot of people knows who I refering to noe), guess what he told me??
The interest rate is first month a bowl of Wanton Mee, second month Hor Fun , third month Hokkien mee and anything more than that Kopi.
I took 1/2 year to repay back as that time too many pros, he nvr pestered me once to repay. Alot of years later we r good friends and I know he will not look me down when I fell.

Life has its UPs & Downs. The most important thing is not to give up. Sometimes bad times are a blessing in disguise and a bridge to better times.
I thought it was the end of the world when I went inside in 1997. Lost everything... family, friends, career, property & assets confiscated, forced into bankruptcy. Really wanted to join my ancestors then but managed to tahan the bad times. Soon the time passed and I got out after 20 months inside.
During my bad times....
a) found out who real friends were
b) met some brudders in same boat (later to change my life)
c) "saw" through family ties (the wife was the worst)
d) realised what a shit job I had (which I tot was a great job back then)
After my release......
a) started all over from scratch
b) had help from brudders in same boat (was intro to some influential ppl)
c) got no more family ties (which was a blessing in disguise)
d) headhunted for special job (less stress and more pay than previous career)
Now.......
a) only hang out with the ones who stood by me in bad times
b) able to "read" people intentions accurately
c) cleared my debts and discharged from bankruptcy
d) highly sought after "bachelor" (stupid women.... think I going to marry them...... just fuck them silly and change to next one)
e) best of all is the fucker warden who tekkan us inside now working in my company as security guard (and I tekkan him back with instructions for him to wash my car and toilet everyday....... purposely shit & urine all over except into the toilet bowl)
The Most important thing when you are down is never give up coz you never know what life has arranged for you tomorrow ;) Que Sera Sera

Right on bro Lone Wolf, I always believe that life is unpredictable...you may be basking in your glory this minute and loss everything the next...Durai is a good example...like they say "Not everyday is a Sunday"....

1. You have to pay tax
2. You have to check in with the Grim Reaper sooner or later..

My thoughts on this is, as long as we do not give up, our luck will surely change and all this problems will probably be resolved. If not in months, then at least in years to come. Of ocurse there will be other problems coming up next. BUt then we can say their life does not have problems leh..

Birds of a Feather Flock Together.
If anyone has a recollection of the song "I Will Survive", its kinda motivational.
Every house has its own story, so no less anyone's circumstances mayb different, but each are also as difficult on its own.
I am also going through a rut, and juz duno when will b bankrupt, growing old doing odd jobs (if there's any even), failure in relations, etc..... it's juz a matter of time. Everyday seems depressing, but it appears that they don't let you go easily. Always a ray of hope, to see that at the end of it, the color is black (hopeless).
There are people out there that takes advantage of you, well mayb you will find peace if you forgive them, and remember not to be generous and kind anymore. And everyday you hope and pray for divine intervention to open a door of opportunities, or a person who will give you a lift at the opportune time, hope it's isn't too late by then ......

Life is always full of ups & downs. If life is plain sailing, it will be quite boring. A minority of us are borned with a Silver Spoon whereas most of the rest of us has to work & work to pay for our life's little luxuries.
We work hard to pay off our vehicles' loans, Housing loans, PUB bills, Electricity bills plus many other bills that need to be settle every month.
At the end of the day after all the bills are paid, there is little $ left for ourselves.
In order to survive here, some of us needs to hold 2 jobs. Some of us are lucky that we can earn a 5 digit figure salary but most of us has to make do with a 1K or 2K+ salary.

Bro,
What u say not always true. Like my situation, me got do sum calculations b4. Even i got a job now wif the previous salary I'm drawing, maybe by the time I retired, I may clear off all my debts if i'm very thrifty.
But then, by that time, I'm an old man with zero networth, no family, no kids, what am I going to do then?
Debts cleared, but what sort of life will that be, from now till then? I got no answer to that. But if carry on like that, I dun wan, so got to do sumthing now to change the situation, be it for the better or worse, cos seems like i got notin to lose..... :(
Of course I agree got ppl worse than me, but who wanna be the worst rite? I also hope that I'm in the position to be able to gif out aid to those needy, but I'm not.
Dun get me wrong, not against yr points, juz my own frustration..........that sumtime things r not that easy as stated.

.....................
U need so much time to pay back your debt ?? why dun u ask the bank to declare u bankcrupt ?? or self-declare bankcrupt ? what is your monthly salary ? if u are a bankcrupt, u only need to pay off a percentage of the debt and u may get dischange after 3 years with good performance .............

hi bro...no problem i understand your plight and agony u are going thru...
sorry...not aware of your actual debts amount .
actually i was asking bro boopbopp to re-look his financial situation as
his debts is around 15k which is still manageable if he really put in some efforts.
Had a friend who had declared bankcrupt yr ago for debts of 60k to various bank due to gambling and cheonging and told me he feel so relieved nowadays tho there are a price to pay. At least , he can sleep soundly since then Simply to weigh the pros and cons if this decision is to made.

Yo Bro,
I also tink of that b4, but after careful consideration, cannot. reasons:
1. My line of work is in management (operations/business development/general), if I ever get bankrupt, no hope at all to get a job cos company will never ever hire a bankrupt as manager. Even if after discharged, the record is there n I realized that a no. of company application form does enquire if u have ever been bankrupt b4. BTW, currently, me is jobless.
2. My debts, as mentioned, consists of personal loans from frens, relatives n family. These personal debts, i intend to pay in full, even upon my death, as I feel that I'm not a bastard, how can I sabo those who help me during my bad time. Thus, declaring bankrupt dun serve the purpose for this part.
U need so much time to pay back your debt ?? why dun u ask the bank to declare u bankcrupt ?? or self-declare bankcrupt ? what is your monthly salary ? if u are a bankcrupt, u only need to pay off a percentage of the debt and u may get dischange after 3 years with good performance .............

Bro i think since your debts consist of personal loans at least still can cham siong with them better then banks...but me even after declaring bankrupt i still honour personal debt owed to a good friend...at least lidat hopefully he still trust me...

Bro,
If u ever declare bankrupt and u wan to repay yr frens etc.. then make sure u do tat first. Cos once u declare BK, everything will be under the charge of an executor/or something liek that ... in the end even if u have a job, the pay will go to this person who will manage yr funds. u will still be given enuf money for yourself and family etc... the rest they will take to pay off yr debts. At the end of 3-5 years u will be discharged, and does not matter if u manage to pay up everything. If u never do what I told u firs then u still ahve to pay yr frens etc.. but if u already do that befroe , then when u finsih the BK, then u have no more debts even to yr frens etc.
Just some word of advice. Cheers

Of course, those personal 1 I have not so much worry, if they r willing to loan me, means they trusted me n I wun betray that trust. Everytime I travel out of country, I will leave a note in a sealed envelope n tell my parents to open it if anything happen to me. Inside is a list of all the ppl that i owe to n the amt, n instruction is given that priority is to pay them wif my insurance $$.
It is the instituitional ones that I worry, if there is any wind blow grass move (风吹草动),then there will be a domino effect which will bring abt an immediate downfall.

Yo bro,
Tks for the adv. If I have $$ to pay off my debts, I will definitely pay off the personal 1 1st. Though these debts got no interest, but it got relationship ties wif it, even i repay them oreli, I will still be indebted to them. $$ can pay off, 人情债 hard to repay.
However, I dun have the ability to pay them back, if have , oreli done it.

Thanks for the advise bro, the court told me my fine will be between 1k to 5k, and i just started a job with a basic of 1200, should i ask my boss for an income prove to show it to court?
Yup, Show them your monthly salary u get from the company and prove it to the court, then when court summon u, you better inform them that you have $$ problem, willingly to pay monthly installments, hope u can get a life out from the court....and start fresh. :D

Cheer up guys, the job market is picking up. Once china is in trouble over WTO issues & their currency under value by 40% & forced to revalue up. Most biz with be back to ASEAN cos cheaper. I myself just got a job after 2 yrs after dept shutdown & forced to leave. And I was very down for last 2 darkest part of my life, went to so many interview with no offer finally got offer with 20% pay cut. At times feel like jumping down like one of my block resident over money problem. Only recently, for the last six months there are really jobs in the market. Guys don't give up hope, take a pay cut & hope for a better tomorrow.
With tearssss... for those who are not out of the woods yet.
MAy good luck be with you for those is need.

It better u work out a plan for payment to the court.....don even get in the cage , it's very hard for you to find a job plus....even got job...it a very low pay job like cleaner or sweeper.......you need to prove your job pay and monthly installment back to them......that the only way out for you Fuckster bro.... :)
Hi bro paul25,
being in the cage and after getting out wont land u in a job as a sweeper or cleaner la, being in the cage wont rip u off the working experience and the academic qualification u have before u enter the cage.
i have been in the cage before due to fines and summon but im still holding a ok paid , mid management job now earning close to 5k since im release. guess im one of the lucky one, the most impt thing is to be honest and frank to yr employer when doing interview (no doubt some company will not accept the fact that u are in the cage before) ..
its normal for pple now to be in the cage for fines , summons, town council overdue payment..etc...i have personally meet a lot of this type of pple in the cage . Sometime i wonder what the government is thinking...maybe they have alot of spare room in QRP ..knn
cheers

Bro Fuckster,
yr fine amount is small and the advise i can give is to look for the MP from yr area to write a letter to the organization that issue u the summon (URA, HDB...etc) and tell them to compound the case out of court.. usually, it will be easier for u to plead for instalment plan with the ura , hdb then in court as the court fine will be much higher and also the court will required u to pay at least 50% of the fine amount and the bal 50% settle by 2 or 3 instalment..
Im unable to seek for MP help due to im being warrant arrest and was bought to court immediately..knn..never even give me time to appeal.. :mad:
Hope this information help..
Cheers

Dear Friends,
My heart goes out to the brothers that are genuinely "affected". I have been in the slumps before but I am very lucky and thank god for what I have now.
Nevertheless, for those brothers who "asked for it" ....well all I can say....time to feel the pain. I mean issues like drink driving ....well...U had your fun....now taste the slumps.
For those affected by divorce, well......cheer up bro......life goes on....just to let u know...you are not the only sucker in town...
However, 1 thing that really frustrates and pisses me off is the fact that some IDIOTS here....who claims to have tried so many FLs can have the cheek to flame me for my reports even though I clearly said was not mine are actually, as clearly stated in the topic, in bad times. Some here highlighted that they dont enough have enough money to eat but can claim to have tried so many FLs !! ??? After that, that same stupid idiot can flame me and deduct my points for "stealing" other people's FR ???!!!Am I wrong to share my contacts which were given to me all in the good spirit of sharing ?
All I can say to that JABRONI.....is......U DESERVE IT BITCH !!! U bitch about me stealing FRs when you are now broke and dare to claim to have tried all the pussy in the world ? Nice LIE !!...but eh eh !!....You cant fool me.....for the others that have believed the said faggots........good luck.....All I can say is ....a good turn deserves another......its all a matter of time......
Lastly for the bros that have been genuinely affected...pls be patience...."it never rains all the time"....My best wishes to everyone here for a brighter future ahead.
best of luck gentlemen......

i know that feeling... i was actually a happy-go-lucky teenagers with many frens. But as i grow older, i found it harder to make true, close frens.
anyone feels that way? I think one's best frens ate usually made in pri & secondary sch. The bond formed during childhood & teenage yrs are usually the strongest.
As an adult, u wld meet more ppl, make more acquantines but less true frens..

during sch days, everyone seems like your best friends cuz everyone doesn't really have to worry bout anything and the friendship is not tested.
during army, more concrete friendships are formed due to the fact that you bunch of ppl have gone thru SHIT together
during university? nah forget...maybe can find a few close ones n stick with them...university is good for finding future business partners or opportunities
during working life? out of 10 so called friends u have, 7 are prob backstabbers...so...do your math bros
for me, my best friends are my childhood friends, 1 of my pri sch friend and 1 sec sch friend...we've really gone thru deep shit together type.
Now i've been working at my office for 1 year but i'm wary of ppl there cuz i just don't trust ppl easily now that i've been betrayed b4

My best friends are those I met whilst serving my NS, followed by some primary and secondary schoolmates. Those at work are mostly just colleagues. Funny thing is that we do not need to keep constant contact with close friends but they will always rally around when we are low and need
someone to talk to whereas those we may meet more frequently are no where to be seen when our chips are down! Here in SBF, are a few samsters that I will consider good cyberfriends whom I feel I can trust fully altho i have yet to meet them...

Dear all,
I recieved a PM from 1 of the bros here and he is asking for some advice on how I did it. A lot of people who knows me in international forum know how tough my life was when I did my first step into China.
Been a N level drop out I kinda believe it sealed my fate as a failure, I was in Bukit Merah ITE, during the first year a big fight forced me to quit school and hang my head in shame.
I was the worst kid in Bukit Ba+++, also leading a gang collecting debts as ah long and shit like that. I tell u that was the worst time of my life. My dad wants to disown me and my whole family is breaking apart because of me, until I was saved by a same surname same name person. Irony life I tell u.....
EC was my friend during that time, he is short whereas I am tall, he is smart whereas I am stuipd. Everything is vice versa for me and him,. He decided to coach me on my English and tell me what is good for myself, I begin to change.
I got my first job as a bartender and he visited me freuquetly togather with that ah long friend of mine (Before NS). They will calm me down when I am mad (I will do anything to get my hand on any idiot that provode me), they advise me on everything.
For this job what I learn? I learnt that there are strange people out there, it is not their fault to be strange so don't blame them. When people say u r wrong just accept it, think about it and then remeby it. Always respect people in regardless of who they r, u nvr know....
Life isn't hard when u based everything on challenges, u think Lee Ka Sing (HK Tyoon) never got ups and downs? Wrong I tell u... He have his own woes too, the port he bulit in China is making a lost huge lost. Life is strange too some of my friends U gradute and those who are under me b4 ask me too... How u managed to do it????? I will tell u soon....
During NS I am posted to driver unit and life was tough but again I learn. I learn that if ur life is bad some people are worst, so don grumble. I love cars so my next job u guess....?
Yes as a mechanic, I repair cars with pride and solid car like Merc, BMW, Mini and stuff like that. My next job repairing of Porsche, yes with Suttgaurd Atuo. I met a lot of boss fig and noticed how they react, how they question people, how they post their air and what they wants.
I learn too again, like I say learn nothing wrong with learning just don say F**K I CANNOT DO IT. I always tell my stuff here in China, if u cannot do it I will replace u because a lot of people can do it. Positive is all it is about.
I got my next job (within 2 year I change a total of 3 jobs), require me to be a IT engineer but I know nuts about IT. They way I put it is I know, but the actual fact I don. I am employed through a little clever plan of mine.
1 year into the job I fought very hard to climb, I nvr back stab so that gives me plus in everyones book. End of the day I am 1 of the engineer posted to Microsoft Training in Orchard forgot where already, I make my mark my dad is impress by me and start to forgive me bit by bit.
I was then retenrched but I found a new job in less than a week, higher pay and better benifit. I told myself no fish srimp also can, but I landed into another new place. The spirit of nvr give up is working. I was in the manager level after trying for 1 year and during that time I managed to sercure alot of business, personal business.
Like I say u might ask what is good for yourself, I don know. U must ask urself what u r good in and what u r not, I am not a god but am just a advisor to all the situation here.
If u r not good at where juz change it, don say u don know. How I managed to climb all the way to the Manager with juz a N Level Cert?? I try my best in everything, if u cannot do it the best then don do it, u r creating more shit for people to clear then. Work smart not hard. My pool of worker will die for me if they need to y?? I treat them as human being and only then will they respect me. RESPECT MY FRIEND IS EARNED NOT HAMMERED.
I am posted to China just last year, I nearly gave up and return to Singapore. But I persist knowing that this land is filled with oppurunity, I heard from my friend Roanldo in the international forum.
"U know that guy u met got an offer $XX, benifit XX and he took up the job."
I know that I must challenge myself to go up again, I took all oppurunity that I have and finally I myself got an offer.
The next job is here but I made a mistake in not looking far, because another guy came hopping with a GM post and pay of SGD$8***...
I am only 26 and I have been through a lot, I tell u my life story because I have fallen into shit before and I have climbed out.
I will now tell u the method....
1) Never admit lost until u have found no way.
2) Never say that you are good because there r people who r better.
3) Never stop learning.
4) Never say that life sucks because it have not.
5) When u r down to the bottom the only way out is to go up.
6) Everything is life exprience, do not look down on people.
My motto to survive is u need to have good friends and only good friends are the ones to support u. I learnt how people work and correct their mistake to make their merit into mine. I try to mingle around with people and change my habit from time to time.
Life is not all about money but rather investment, if u r willing to look beyond the line you have reached ur goal by half. I have lots of friends who cannot cross the barrier, they do not know how to invest in friends.
HUMAN BEINGS ARE SUCH SMALL CREATURES, AREN'T THEY?
SO DON'T BE TOO WORRIED ABOUT EVERYTHING,
TREASURE EVERY MOMENT, DO WHAT YOU WISH TO DO.....
BROADEN YOUR VIEW, BROADEN YOUR MIND,
DON'T WORRY TOO MUCH ABOUT THINGS THAT ARE BOTHERING YOU.
This is the magical statment I will give u all....

Dear all,
.......THINGS THAT ARE BOTHERING YOU.
This is the magical statment I will give u all...

Bro Oak, indeed it was an overwhelming insightful life experience that you shared with all brothers here who are "temporarily" in the soaking mud-pit in their life!! ( Will up your pts for sharing with us!!!)
True indeed as what you said that we should not give up in our life or any obstacles that comes along!!Ironically, I came a across a quote today saying "WHAT DOESNT BREAK YOU WILL MAKE YOU EVEN STRONGER"!! So, let's not despair and seek for absolute solution rather than dwelling into our problems negatively.
Just want to share what I have experienced during 1 of my "downtime". I was in complete different scenario unlike Bro Oak. Throughout my life, I was blessed with reasonable upbringing.Not fantastic but good enough for me to complete my school education. Life was a breeze and I managed to find a decent job as a marketing executive after my army days. With a supportive management behind me, I managed to rose quite fast and rolling in all these $$$ into my bank account. As big-headed 25yrs old young chap, I was disorientated in my life with all these sudden "perks" which I dont handle quite well. I spent tons of $$$ on boozing, woman, friends etc. I dont give a hoot about anything in my life and to me..Life is just a party and the party never ends for me.Definately and surely, I"m into troubles for such irresponsible act which I felt it's so unfair for my beloved wife, family and all the people who loved me.
Slowly, alcohol started to take over my life, my soul and everything I have built up for myself and my love ones at home.
Sometime this year, I was caught drink-drinking while making my way back home. I was so intoxicated that I did not know how bad it was until the next following day. I was in completed daze when things started to settle in.What should I do now without a valid driving license for work??Why I"m in such a state which I should have know long ago??Lots of Whys..whys..and more whys...
I was very lucky that I still have my supportive wife who standby me despite all these silly troubles I"m in. I'm really stupid for my act that causes so much troubles & agony for myself and all the people who loves me. I regretted till this very day which I think I could avoided if I"m given a 2nd chance. Despite this respite, I tell myself I MUST moved on and stop dwelling in the problems itself. Nobody will give you a 2nd chance and tell a hoot about how you should live your life. You must standup, think for yourself, move on and dont repeat the same mistake again. We all go through trails & tribulations in life. It's just 1 chapter of unhappiness in our life that we need to learn and master before we close it.
Bro Oak"s personal experience indeed enlighten me which also brings me to share my own little experience with all brothers here. I hope we should encourage all with our own little personal experiences to make this world a better place to live in.

A lot of people will ask, why are u guys so lucky???
I will tell them it is not that I am lucky, it is just that I managed to cruise my way out of problems. My friends used to tell me if money can solve the problem it is no longer a problem. I agree with him, I think it is the best way to solve pro without me cracking my head.
I don use money to solve all my pro but rather sincerely to solve, I got into a accident in 2004 Chinese New Year. My car flipped from oncoming to incoming lane, end of the day I still climbed out. I tell u I spent so much buying that Lancer of mine (2005 edition) and less than 6 months it flipped, during that time I told myself luckily I have no pro otherwise how much more money also cannot buy me back.
I read this statment somewhere b4 and I will share it with u guys,
" When it is dark it means there is no light. It does not mean that light does not exist, it is just that light cannot be seen, heard or felt but if you have faith you will find it."
This statment means a lot to me now, I know people will find me bullshitting but if you talk to people from international forums they will know.
Life isn't that hard when you look at it positively, instead it will be bitter when u don.
Good luck to all bros here, there are light at the end of the tunnel. Choose your road well, plan far ahead and make sure you plan sereval road instead of 1.

Oak

Where got? Haha but it is indeed shitty here in China, now in my new company doing some check list and preparing myself for my new job.
At my previous job I am paid peanuts but in there is my best friend, he had faced some pro and I wanted to come China to expose myself. So it is a stone killing 2 birds, I fulfilled my wish and my hunger.
But this new job I will try not to stay long, I still have a long way to go. This is waht I felt now.
I am tired but I cannot stop,
I am trying to stop but spirit is strong,
I am who I am trying to prove,
I cannot do anything that goes against my wish and faith I have in myself,
I will be strong and will not submit to defeat,
I will not admit defeat even though it seems a easier way out,
I will not take an easier way out because it makes me lazy,
I will not dishornour the name that my dad gave.
My life is blessed... Y I said that?
My family helped me when I am down and out, I have a good galfriend who refused to give up on me. I have a lot of good friends good do not wan to see me fall.
My pay now is nothing comparedto what I have heard, a manager earning SGD $1.6million per year. I view it as a challenge not as a goal, once I do that when I fall I will not get into shit.

Well... thats a vey nice motivation Oak !! Thank u for ur advise ..
Atfer reading thru the whole of this post again, i realise one thing. Good friend n partners are really hard to find. Do treasure them.
In fact i too went into the darkness moments of my life, life was in a mess.
That time still very young to handle it.. but i am really lucky (like u Oak) that my current bf never give me up. He was always there for me.. What he have done for me i will never ever forget....
I rem i heard an old ah ma at the old folks home (that time do volunteer),
"Find someone who can go thru bad times with u not those share the good times"
Like bro H24, no matter how good is that ger, Bro H24 refused to give up his wife. Me too....

Good for everyone that shares the same views with me. To find something good is hard to find your own direction is even harder.
For me I have my directions and I have moved into that direction now, I am still young compared to alot of people here. If there is a chance given to me I will prove to everyone that I am who I am, I need not answer to anyone at the end of the day expect to myself.
Find things that you really need and treasure them you nvr know when u might need it.

Oak

haiz....... :mad:
sell the car.
i know that feeling... i was actually a happy-go-lucky teenagers with many frens. But as i grow older, i found it harder to make true, close frens.
anyone feels that way? I think one's best frens ate usually made in pri & secondary sch. ..
when ppl grow older, they got less time lah, whr got time to hang out make friends. that's why. it's priorities changes.
me even worst..
got promoted again, since the last time was 2 mth ago
condo/car loan cleared
20k monthly salary don;t know how to spend
bank keep call me everyday, asking to invest my 900k deposit..still growing
just broke off with 2 girlfriend
ready feel like killing myself..sign
neh'mine! in every cloud, there is a silver lining. no matter how much money u have, it is still difficult to find a clean public toilet when u need it most!
that is the most important thing in life. being able to find a clean public toilet.
i've been lucky. someone up there likes me, cos i've always been able to find a clean public toilet just when i needed it most!
how about you?

For once I realise that there are experiences even worse than mine. Looking at your experience only tells me one thing, and that thing is to thank you for sharing your experience cos till now then I know I'm "focusing" on the wrong thing which is I "worry too much about things that are bothering me"
Your magical statements are very useful indeed. I will definitely have them properly typed & deisnged in powerpoint & then have it printed and paste everywhere I can see as it's a motivation for me. Once again, thanks.

Whenever I go thru shit, i always remind myself that
"Tough times don't last, but Tough people do"
I have been blessed in my life so far and I am grateful for it. I hope I never take this blessing for granted by thinking of it as a right instead of what it really is, which is a gift.

Bro Fuckster,
yr fine amount is small and the advise i can give is to look for the MP from yr area to write a letter to the organization that issue u the summon (URA, HDB...etc) and tell them to compound the case out of court.. usually, it will
Cheers
Thanks for all the concern from all bros who had given advise to me. I had finally paid off the fine of with the help of my buddies and my gal fren. I tried to ask that stupid judge to allow me to pay the fine in installment but guess what that fucker said? HE SAID I NEED TO PAY 95% OF MY FINE BEFORE HE WILL ALLOW ME TO PAY THE REST OF THE 5% WITH INSTALLMENT!!!!! I REALLY FEEL LIKE GIVING HIM A GOOD FUCK....IF I HAVE SO MUCH MONEY DO I STILL NEED TO ASK FOR INSTALLMENT???!!!!! Luckily i manage to raise the amount with the help of my dear frens and my gal fren ,or else i might be in the cage by now, forgive me for my dirty words bros, but i still want to curse ALL THE FUCKING JUDGES IN SINGAPORE AND HOPE THEY WILL ALL DIED OF TRAGIC DEATH AND GET FUCK IN THEIR ASS BY A DOG AND CURSE THEM TO HAVE A ROTTEN DICK AND CANT BONK FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIFE.
