Rule of 72


The “Rule of 72” is a method to determine how long for an amount you invested will be double, by given a fixed annual rate of interest. This rule will quickly tell you how many years to make your money double by knowing the interest rate, all you need is by using this rule.  
This can be easily calculate by using formula below:
Year to double up = 72 / Interest Rate
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For example:
With a constant  6% interest rate per annual, mean your money will need 72/6 = 12,  12 years to become double. 
To make your money double in 6 years, mean you need 72/6 = 12, 12% per annual interest rate.
This rule also can be use for expenses such as inflation rate.
For example:
If inflation rates go from 2% to 3%, this means that your money will lose half its value in 36 or 24 years.

易桀齊 - 一如既往




 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

一如既往

/曲:易桀齊

電線竿那一支風箏
風吹日曬它終於剩下枝架
那年我們並肩站在同個窗口看
我看見遠方 愛情的模樣

如果有忘掉的力量
這個窗口就不會變成老地方
你選在一個最晴朗的一天出發
天空那麼亮 放大了憂傷

* 我的愛 捨不得最美的時光
曾經擁有相同的信仰
總算帶來過歡笑
我們的愛 像風箏的線那麼長
我這樣濕了多久眼眶
有什麼不能原諒 不想原諒
因為我的愛 一如既往

如果有忘掉的力量
好把這窗口砌成記憶的磚牆
你選在一個最晴朗的一天出發
天空那麼亮 你別來無恙

回去那告別的地方
站在同一個窗口再來一次眺望
電線竿那一支風箏
不知飄到那裡了 不是那支風箏
是我的心一直卡在那兒

Value of Engineer Title



The value of Engineer Title

A fresh graduate engineer with a qualification of Bachelor Degree, the monthly salary normally in Malaysia will be around 2.2k-3.28k Ringgit Malaysia. Only some of talented (maybe) people can get higher than 3k above/month. After deducted the EPF, SOCSO, and income tax, the amount will be around 2k++. I can't imagine how to survive with this such amount of monthly income if stay at KL. For those people that stay at Penang, maybe can consider this as enough only. As the living fee at Penang is much lower.  

Really not dare to think about it for the next 5 years living expend, as the inflation rate is increasing. 

My point of view is still Penang the best place to find a job and build up the career.
