Today, aside from preparing for my exercise physiology exam,

As some of you may know, I like to think of myself as a struggler in terms of finance.  I enjoy living on the subsistence offered by my doctor-investor father (he’s recently been awarded a Malaysian National Honour, much like the New Zealand Order of Merit, or the British Knighthood System).  However, I also enjoy making my own ends meet (especially with violin lessons, petrol, food costs and amenities), so I recently tried my hand in the share-market too.  Wise investments are hard to call unless you can see the future – but my dad’s recommendation of Auckland International Airport shares are pretty good so far.

So yeah, I’m happy about how God planned it out, serving up a big market increase to offset my previous faux pas share-trading story.  Basically in that instance I invested in a company on the down, and I pulled out to cut my losses (hence the loss of value), but then took a risk in re-buying at a lower Auckland International price at the time.

Bla bla long story short I made my money back (brokerage taken into account).  Plus $14.12!  Yay that’s like, what most part-timers earn in an hour!

Anyways, hope all your studies are going well.  I know some of you are on holiday, you guys suck.
