Indeed, it's the new normal indeed, haha :) But anything above 50k would have required a different model of business because as it is, I'm quite stretching it already.<br /><br />Things can't move until I get myself a flat first :)la papillionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01372278083694506953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-27438184110506278012010-11-03T02:29:41.720+08:002010-11-03T02:29:41.720+08:00Hi JW,

As the plans get more concrete and I know exactly how to do it, then I'll set more progressive goals :)la papillionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01372278083694506953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-8739924264834296762010-11-03T02:28:43.488+08:002010-11-03T02:28:43.488+08:00Hi PG,

Thanks for always sharing your pt of view...Hi Ali,<br /><br />Thanks for always sharing your pt of view, I learnt a lot from them :)<br /><br />Yup, I realised that it's not possible to get 100k/yr based on what I'm doing. I would have to use a different sort of model, that's why I needed the 2-3 yrs to realise that. I think it's very possible.<br /><br />You raised the pt about how non-issues becomes big issues - totally agree. Starting to see more of such things coming up, haha :) Would take your advice on compromising seriously :)la papillionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01372278083694506953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-10268585971768869352010-11-02T13:40:09.410+08:002010-11-02T13:40:09.410+08:00LP,
It is not impossible to save 100k /year. But ...LP,<br /><br />It is not impossible to save 100k /year. But your mode of income generation will have to be different. A better way would be like what Momo is planning, i.e. setting up of a business or leveraging on others. In your case, it would be having bigger classes or setting up a centre if you continue in your current profession. Otherwise, think of doing another thing that you are passionate about on the sideline first while being supported by your current income.<br /><br />Don’t be in a hurry to achieve all those that you have planned. Most of what I have today started coming in at age 40 onwards. I have being in the same engineering profession for the last 25 years and I am only in the third company, of course with a minority stake. Even then, the director’s fees and dividends are a few 100k, all of which are used for investments.<br /><br />Congratulations on you marriage. Just remember, that there is another point of view you would have to take into consideration from now on. You would be surprise sometimes how non-issues can turn into big issues. As always, I would advocate compromise, giving more than taking. You get the drift.<br /><br />AliAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
