Goodbye 2008
icon1 admin | icon2 blog, Life | icon4 12 31st, 2008| icon31 Comment »

Sometime I feel like 2008 over too fast. There are still few things that I am not able to achieve in this year. Anyway, I know I shouldn’t blame on time, I should blame myself being such ignorant.

I don’t have any special plan for New Year eve. There are many events in town, but I don’t plan to join any. It is too crowded for me and I hardly to enjoy in this environment. Perhaps I am too old for this.

Today is the last day of 2008, wish all of us could enjoy this day peacefully~

Many people are affected with the recent world economy downturn. I have a friend, Stella who take the Voluntary Separation Scheme (VSS) from her company and start with her own business. Before she makes the decision, she had paved a way to start her own business.

She has limited money to start the business right now. So, she studied online and learned about incorporating her business. For me, this is a new concept of doing business. With incorporate a new company, you could save cost far less than people realize. Besides, it could be done without lawyer and can provide many benefits from lowered personal liability to favorable tax treatment. This is one of the different between a corporation and LLC. Besides, there are few different between corporation and Limited Liability Company (LLC), please refer to the figure for the summary.

I wish she can success in her business venture with the help from clickandinc.com. Please visit to their website if you want to start your own business. Wish you good luck too!

After more than one week holiday in hometown, I finally back to the real world. Since Monday is a public holiday, so I expect that would be a hectic traffic in highway. I purposely drive back to KL on Sunday to avoid jam in highway. But, I was wrong.

I encountered few traffic congestion in PLUS highway while I drove back. This is due to bad weather and many cars on the road. At the end, I spent four hours plus through this journey. Normally, it is only about three hours.

Anyway, it was a safe journey. I am back. Then, I have to start to work now…

Do you have problems in managing your personal finance? If you do, I have a story to share with you.

I have a friend, Jessica. She is a big spender. Before the economy crisis, she spent all her income on luxury goods, such as shoes and clothes. She didn’t have much saving in her bank account. She was so unlucky to become one of the ‘victim’ in the company’s retrenchment programs. Then, she became jobless three months ago.

Her financial problem occurs when she lost her job. She needs to pay for the credit cards, living essences, housing loan, and more. As a friend, I could not give much helps in term of money. But, I can give her advice to find the expect to help in her financial management.

As I know, there is an excellent debt management company at cleardebt.co.uk. They have a lot of Debt Management Plans to help people who need financial advice. Their products include debt consolidation, bankruptcy advice, credit card debt help, debt management, debt solution and more! I encouraged Jessica to contact them for helps.

Few days ago, I met Jessica in a shopping mall. She told me that the debt management company did help her much in her financial problems. Now, she has solved the problem and found a new job. As a token of appreciation, she paid for my lunch on that day. I am so happy that I can help her!

Then, I decided to write this in my blog so that I can share this information with wide range of my readers. I hope every one of you can find an effective way to solve your financial problem~!

I have a friend who is doing e-business in the internet. He is one of the successful young entrepreneurs in town. Last week, we were having a sharing session with him on Search Engine Optimization (SEO). I learned a lot of things from him and he just enlightens my day!

He recommended a CRE Loaded SEO to us. This tool could change dynamic URLs to static and well-structured friendly formats. This can improve Search Engine Ranking and readability effectively. Current, my friend is using this tool in his e-commerce website and he is satisfied with the service. He told us this is something worth to invest if you want to have a successful e-commerce website.

After the sharing session, I visited to the website that given by my friend. I found there are few advantages from this tool. As a summary:

  • Maximizes Page Rank for successful SEO!
  • Supports heavily modified CRE Loaded shopping carts
  • Allows website indexing by web crawlers in multiple languages
  • Does not break any installed CRE Loaded add-ons, modules or templates/themes
  • Includes a free SEO XML sitemap add-on (Sitemaps)
  • Features easy installation requiring only one line of code
  • Comes with a free installation service

So, if you are looking for a effective SEO tool, I would recommend it to you as well~!

Start my holiday

Today is the last working day for me in year 2008. I will start on leave from tomorrow until 4th January 2009. But I didn’t have any plan for holidays.

I will go back to hometown tomorrow onwards. This is to do the spring cleaning for the coming Chinese New Year. I know it is still early, but this year’s Chinese New Year is on January. Then, I will come back to town and do the preparation for next year.

Perhaps you would think I am having long holidays. But, as my previous boss said, the holiday is for you to improve yourself. You are actually working, just no need to come to office. Sometime, I think this is true.

I believe there are a lot of reverse phone lookup services available in the market. But, most of them are having a same limitation. Normally, their service is restricted to landline numbers only. So, you are not able to find unlisted, blocked, and mobile numbers by using their service. This is something that impractical to our business needs.

This Reverse Phone Lookup service is not only fulfilling in business needs. It could be for personal usage as well. Who knows someday you missed a call from an old friend. By using this service, it is possible to locate where your old friend is. Hope you would enjoy with this service!

I believe most of us are clearing the annual leave at the end of the year. Most of us will thought that on leave at home will just sitting back, relax, and enjoying their own life. But, I noticed this is untrue.

I am on leave today. I took this opportunity visit to dentist in the morning. Then, I will take LRT to KL to collect my free movie ticket in this evening. Then, I will go to FF on my way back.

Now, I am doing my laundry and other house chore. So, do you think we really have time to enjoy in one day leave? But, I know it is better that nothing. I just can say I have too little time but too many things to accomplish. Or, I am poor in time management?
