Why I am reluctant to start up on my own

How do I use my facebook and Linkedin?

some more insignificant thoughts

I foresee that this new year will be tough, in the economy of oz and even tougher for s’pore. I was brought to attention that oz has much-accumulated wealth from families, on par like many sg families. The old saying the predecessors planted the trees for their descendants to cool under it.
