After settling everything, finally I’ve the chance to touch my blog. KL is notorious for its hectic lifestyle, and there is a need for me to catch up with it. I am still imagining the challenge that I will face when I receive my car most probably in November. The challenging part isn’t driving in KL, but the car’s transmission, which is manual!

Right now I am staying behind Tropicana City Mall. Good or bad?

Staying somewhere near to the mall should be a good thing for me. Buying groceries and enjoying my free time shall not be a problem. One of the good things I love this mall is, my favourite Chatime is inside! (Well, even if it isn’t inside, there is another branch near my workplace)

Surprisingly, I found out that there are no shops selling men’s cloths inside the mall!

Another thing that I was worrying before I came here was…

Yeah! Food!

I am a person who cannot bear any hunger. I was worrying that around my area there were no places to dine. Well, Tropicana City Mall and the 7-Eleven nearby my house have given me the solution!

I remember last time somebody told me that KL is a place without nice food. Now I officially prove this statement is wrong! Malaysia’s food rocks! Despite the price level of the food here, I enjoy dining in KL.

Life here after working is somehow relaxing. I enjoy reading books that I’ve bought but never had the chance to read before. Stop studying enables me to gain industrial experience and do what I wish to do after working. I often believe that the way one spends his free time determines who he is. Reading books about business and investment is definitely one of the best ways to spend my free time.

However, knowledge isn’t everything. It’s just the first stage. Knowledge doesn’t give one a fortune. In fact, applied knowledge is the thing that enables one to create something.

Everyday, I’d glance at this thing.

It’s given by my good buddies. I often called them “Monkeys”. They’re a group of graceful juniors and few peers. Before I left, they actually made this for me. Inside the book, everyone wrote paragraphs of wishes and inserted a photo.

After those wishes, they fill the pages with our memories. The moment we celebrate each other’s birthday, the moment we go out shopping, the moment we gather and do something crazy, the moment we rock Miri & etc…

Everyone has emotion. Every time when I see this cute little hand-make booklet, I will remind myself: No matter what happen, there are always people who are supporting me at the back.

Life can be very meaningful and interesting with the presence of these buddies.

I haven’t actually told all my close friends about the greatest decision I’ve ever made in my life. However, people are spreading in the campus and also outside of campus. I’ve been asked several times regarding my decision. Is it true? Why? When? How are you going to bla bla bla?

I posted this in Instagram. This is the first one-way ticket that I’ve bought in my life.

I am going to KL next week and start another new chapter of my life. I’ve stopped from studying and get out from the freaking academic stress.

People have been asking…
“Why don’t you finish your degree? It’s a waste?”
“Not having a degree is risky! At least finish your degree. It’s more secure.”
“You’ve spent so much time and money. If you give up now, you lose everything!”

Well.

At the first place, I never think of getting a degree. It’s just because my family isn’t rich enough to finance me and start a business. Jumping into degree and finance with loans is not actually what I want. But it’s a norm, whereby people nowadays think that everyone shall follow it.

I don’t like to follow what the crowd do. The reason I got into Curtin at first place is just to shut the mouth of people around me and also, during that moment, I had no money and good idea to run a business.

After about 2 years of studying, I founded my own business, and also joined a private franchising in this year. All in this year.

Right now, my company, Silver4u Malaysia, has organized a seminar in Curtin and also a seminar spoken by Jonathan Quek, founder & CEO of True North Asia Sdn. Bhd.

Besides, I am doing physical silver bullion retailing. The sales isn’t big, but it’s growing and I see something. At the same time, of course, I am investing in it.

People say, I am wasting my time and money.

I am being honest to myself. Studying is never my cup of tea. It’s just a “standard” whereby people follow, but it doesn’t mean that it’s a must.

I’m offered to become a Business Developer Executive in a one of the fastest growing companies in Malaysia. If I continue my study, I would be wasting this golden opportunity that many people out there are looking for…

For many other people, continue my degree is mandatory so that I won’t be wasting the effort (money & time) I’ve been putting in the past 5 semesters.

For me, if I continue studying, I am wasting more money and time and get a paper that I don’t need in the future. I’ve to be honest to myself: Getting a safe, secure job is not the option I want in the next 5 years, or 10 years.

When my customers buy physical silver from me, they never ask me if I have a degree. They ask for information, knowledge and news.

When I register my business in the resident office, they don’t ask if I have a degree. They ask for my IC.

When I register my CDS and trading accounts, my broker doesn’t ask me if I am going to get a degree or I have a degree. He asks for my IC and Bank Statement.

Sometime, people just feel insecure if they don’t do something that people are doing. This is why not getting a degree is insecure because other people are getting the piece of paper that cost us a vast sum of money and time.

It’s time to follow my passion and what my heart says…

If life is a book, then now I am flipping to the next chapter.

KL here I come!

Yesterday was a fantastic day. Silver4u Malaysia’s Official Website (Silver4u-my.com) is finally being completed! It has taken quite a while for me to complete everything, from designing and searching images to content creation. Right now, the next few assignments of mine would be writing my very first ebook about silver investment and also register my business.

Stay tuned for my upcoming ebook! It will be available here when it’s done!

Running my own business is always my dream, and I committed in my dream list saying that I want to become a self-employed by the age of 21. Surprisingly, opportunity comes when I am just 20! I said in my previous post that good dreams will always motivate you and bring you to that direction.

And yes, I consider myself as a self-employed now. One of my dreams in my dream list has officially being achieved!

However, I am looking forward to learn more instead of earn more with my Silver4u Malaysia’s Management Team. I’ve a great team to work with right now, and I believe we can make things happen!

It has been about half year JeenHao.com is being operated as a photoblog which symbolize the artwork and my photography lifestyle. I was crazy in photography last year, building my photo portfolio as well as improving my photography technique.

For the past few months, my photography journey slows down. It doesn’t mean that I am no longer showing interest in photography. Eventually I have been spending a lot of time in enhancing my knowledge in several fields, such as financial intelligence, business building, as well as investment.

Why are you giving up photography?

Some of my friends think that I am stupid enough because I stop building my photo portfolio, simply because they think I’ve “invested” a lot in photography, in terms of time and money. They claim that I should continue my effort in photography because freelance photographers earn a lot of money!

Well, freelance photographers do make a lot of money, and I did contemplate about becoming a freelance photographer. After I’ve been into business and investment, I find that it isn’t something that can satisfy me in a future. Even if I am a photographer who can earn five figures per month by pressing my shutter and post-processing  my work, the income stops when I stop doing that.

However, I do not give up photography. I am now enjoying this interest in another perspective. Instead of learning photography and building my portfolio for freelancing purpose in the future, I am now treating photography as a lifestyle. I do hope that I can travel the world and snap fantastic photos in the future. It’s possible that in the future, I’ll create another photo portfolio website of mine.

What you’ve been doing recently then?

I’ve been drafting out several business plans that will be carried out in the near future. One of the business is Silver4u Malaysia, which I am working it out currently and I estimate that it’ll be completely launched by the end of next month.

Besides, I am also involving myself in a private franchising business while I am studying for my Bachelor and building my businesses. Not forgetting that I’ve been spending a lot of effort and time in enhancing my financial intelligence, as well as business and investment knowledge.

What you’ll do in JeenHao.com now?

I will be sharing all my findings in business and investment in this blog. I wish all my readers and friends can be benefited from the information shared in this blog. At the same time, I will also blog about my life and personal rambling as the clock ticks. No worries, craps will never be posted here.

Hereby, I welcome you to JeenHao.com.
