where's the card, mr postman?

a surprise mail came for my sister the other day. she got a registered mail for a visa and mastercard pin code, a credit card she never registered for. i can imagine the thoughtfulness of the credit cards issuer, who is kind enough to offer my sister their services without her having to apply for the credit cards, 2 months after her car loan got approved, she has a pretty impressive bank statement i assume.but the thing is, what do you do with two visa and master pin code, when they forgot to send your the plastic credit cards you're suppose to...

rent. buy and sell

while other's get their hands on the stock market and currency investment to make the big bucks, i personally think that New York real estate is where the big money is. after all, isn't that how mr. donald ended up so filthy rich? i mean, if you have extra cash in the bank that sits there earning pathetic interest rate, you seriously need a wake up call from me.though i'm no investment guru, but i sure know one thing. property investment can never go wrong, provided you know where and when the property will bloom. take Florida real estate, the...

trick and trade wine with black currant

down the aisle dangling with gold accessories

the one thing that we chinese cannot do without in a wedding ceremony is presenting the bride with gold accessories. especially for the bride's parents, buying gold accessories for their daughter has become a tradition for decades. it somehow portrays that the brides family is wealthy enough to present gold as gift and thus, they earned the respect from the bridegrooms family member. especially in the case where the bride is married into a wealthy and well-known family. for decades, gold remains as the main valuable gift, though the idea of earning...
