Plan-D

I never care much about Donny Trump, but the "Create Wealth and Protect Wealth Summit" on April 3 had changed my course of action. Before that I have hoping to get into Business School and make 6 figures after graduation. After the summit, I found out that there are so many ways to amass wealth.

Trading in the stock market is one of them.

I have found that there are actually ways to study patterns and trend. It is a scientific process with repeatable and predictable performance. I signed up for the Stock Class. And in the Stock Class they showed me the power of "spread" trade. With the support of my wife, I signed up for the PhD program and 24 grand tuition, but I am hopeful to get them back within the first year.

I have learned that it is fun to have a wife with the same life goals as you. Her support has meant that we are going to be successful and by the time I am 40 years old, I will be a millionaire.

Good Deed #2, Thank You and Thank You

March 31, 2007. Markkus was running a high fever, and after talking to a "nurse" on the phone from Aetna for 15 minutes about it is not necessary to go to the Hostpial. We decided to go to the Emergency Room at 10:00 pm.

I am certain that the working guideline from Aetna is to "keep the cost down". Yeah, and our health is actually of no importance!

10:00 pm, I raced to the ER at Medical Center of Plano. It was raining very hard and I dropped my wife and M off first, then I parked.

Using a rainbow color golf umbrella I kept my self dry and walked toward the ER entrance. There was a car there with the door open for another old lady exiting from the ER. So I walked a bit faster and used my rainbow color golf umbrella to gave you a cover for 2 seconds! I received thank you thank you from her and the driver moved over thanked me.

I felt so good :)

Are U Venemee

NO! I am not!

I don't understand why this is always the first question for so many Vietnamese to ask me.
I am sorry to tell you that I am an AMERICAN!

Here are what I am going to react next time:

Situation 1) if I am in a normal mood, and don't care much ab0ut this person:
Answer) No, I am Mexican, my dad was a Mayan Chef and my Mom was Finnish, they moved to China during the Sino-Lassie War and I was born on the out skit of an Island close to the broader of Madagascar. And I speak six languages, they are all African native languages, none of them is Vietnamese.

Situation 2) if I need this person to perform some service for me, such as to do my hair:
Answer) No, I am not. .... Silence.

Situation 3) if I am in a bad bad modd.
Answer) Why did you ask, what part of me resembles Vietnamese? My friend told me I look like someone from Peru. BTW have you been to Peru, I heard the national language is Perish, just like people in Switzerland speaks Switzerish. You know I can sue you for discriminations because you are trying to pick me out from a group to treat me differently.


Please don't ask this question anymore. I am grotesquely annoyed by it!
Especially the questioner is not particular easy on the eyes. I have no problem if an Asian version of Tom Cruse asks me in perfect American English (or British English) the question. It annoys me the most with someone is just asking for it so they can speak Vietnamese to ANYONE else!

I sure have a knack to find the worst intention of anyone, and in this situation is no exception :)

Flurries and Tornadoes in April

How about that!

The Herald Democrat

It was strange enough to have flurries in April, luckily that did not cause any problem. But the Tornadoes? Humans are just to minute compared to the grandeurs of Nature.

What is your name (young man)?

It was March 29th, 2007. I visited a local Bank of America branch to inquire some business procedures.

As I walked into the bank, there was an old lady dressed in purple suit and a white hat. I remember her dark skin and a denture-front tooth. She is not exactly a fast walker, and she is in fact a little bit on the slow side. I held the door for her..oh a good 10 sec, she said "Thank You" and "What is your name?" I replied in earnest, seeing that she won't be a bad witch from the Garden of Oz. She then goes "you will be in my prayer tonight." I was all in awe. For a 10 sec good deed, I've got to be in someone's prayer.

I am not exactly a Saint, nor am I drawn in sin. But I have not been to a service for over a year now. Maybe this is God's way to remind me.

Die(d) Hard Battery

I have stop shopping at Sears for almost 3 years now. In fact the last item I bought from Sears was the "Die Hard Gold" car battery. It came with 36 months of replacement warranty and 100 months of pro-rate warranty.

After a week of sitting in the garage, while we vacationed at Breckenridge, CO, my faithful Camry failed to start on Monday. It was kind of strange because I had it sitting in the garage for 3 weeks in December and it still started ok.

I hooked up the boaster cable, from my wife's Xterra and drove to work.

It started ok at lunch and after 5:00 pm when I left work, but Tuesday morning it needed to extra boaster again.

I checked the sale receipt and it was just 33 months old! Luckily Sears kept their promise and replace a new battery. Living in Dallas is no extreme weather, well maybe if you count the days over 100 F. But still it should not shorten that battery's life by 10%. I really doubt if I ever want to buy there again.
