In this blatant materialistic world we live in, money certainly appeals to everyone. And for those of use who do not have the money, well, it doesn’t hurt to dream, does it? And dream away I did. First Joanne gave me a million bucks to do as I wish. And then Suzette also added another million to my bank account. But when I still didn’t do anything with all that money, my good gal friend Rinnah put the icing on the cake and gave me an additional million.
So folks, I have 3 million to burn now….what to do, what to do?
Well, the logical thing to do of course is to be politically correct and invest or save this money in some unit trust fund or something, right? But since I am allowed to dream big, I’ll go out on a limb and say that the first thing I’m going to do (short of quitting my job) is to spend it on my family ~ I’ll put a downpayment (or maybe even pay cash) on one of these babies in Seri Tanjung Pinang. I know for a fact that my hubby and Ethan will just go crazy over this new house. Oh, before that, I will pay off my existing housing loan and car loan first la. The selling price of one of these semi-detached houses in Seri Tanjung Pinang is at least a million bucks! We’ve seen the show unit and it is sooooo gorgeous, I almost pengsaned! Even Ethan was amused by the interior! I love the locale, the way the houses are built and the adjacent roads. It really feels like I am in a totally homely place when I drive around that area. Landed property in Penang is scarce nowadays…. good landed property, make that. And this piece of property is worth every penny, if one can afford it.
And if I have a house like that, I can finally get myself a golden retriever and a beagle 🙂 Having a dog (or in this case, two) has been my dream for ages.
Of course, I am a filial person, so some of the moolah will go to my parents too. I’m sure my folks would like to travel or perhaps retire comfortably in a new house. But I will leave it to them to do as they please.
After spending that obscene amount of money on the house and the renovations and furniture, I doubt I will have much left. So with the remainder I will invest or save for a rainy day. Of course I hope I have some left over to go for a shopping spree!
Oh, and what about that beemer I was talking about? Well, that would be left to my hubby…. *wink*
…and finally when I have all this, I will quit my job and be an SAHM 🙂

Buy some commercial properties and rent out and become “wrap a rent lady” (pau chou poh) 🙂 That way you can also have some more income mah. Quit your job then become a full time writer for your blog and earn some more. You become rich and become richer again ahahahahaha
