Art Deco architecture @ Napier

When visiting Napier earlier in Feb this yr, there is the famous Art Deco buildings that we should visit, or at least walk 1 round around their street to see the Art Deco buildings that are within walking distance in the city as plotted in the map above. (Add route to google map). We took the free method with the help of google, the paid method is you can buy a guide map for $15 or take a guided tour.

First stop is the fire station

Followed by the Public trust office

The Daily Telegraph building
Masonic hotel where you get different looks from different side of the building
The library 
Australian Mutual Provident Society 
The Waiapu church
Along the way you could see some interesting buildings and wall paintings too.
Finally if you do have a car, you can drive a while to the tobacco building as well
During Covid 19 period, if you are interested, you can use google street view to take a look at those places instead. As the chinese phrase says, 望梅止渴 ma. 🤣 since we cannot travel, can look at it to drench the thirst instead.

I feel that it requires strategy and some form of luck to win the game. So far, I always get good property cards sets but it always get taken away 'cos I don't have the "Just say NO" card and it tend to get taken away, especially if I've a complete set. Then, I tried the strategy of not putting up a complete set, then it also doesn't really work 'cos in the end, I don't end up putting my sets on the table. Perhaps, I'll need to play a lot more times and try different methods till I get the idea right I guess. If you do have the chance, try playing that game. It's really exciting, 'cos you'll never know how long will your properties stay with you! As well as, how much money you can have in your hands. T...

Amazing Business Networking Primer Workshop

Yesterday evening, I went for this Business Networking Primer Workshop by Roger Loh . It basically a free session conducted by Roger on how what is Business Networking and how it should be done. It's a rather enlightening session and since it's free, I strongly recommend that if you do have a business that you wish to go in full force on, to register for a seat in the upcoming workshop that they'll be having.

MMI Day 1

As I'm blessed with a VIP ticket, I attended MMI ( Millionaire Mind Intensive ) program today. I'll also be attending the event on both tomorrow and Sunday. Although most of the contents are in 1 way or another being covered during some of Executive Direction 's programs, I still learned some things. The truth is that, when I first attended Wendy & Jerome's program, it's actually a lot more interesting than this one. Some of the declarations sounds rather similar to Ken & Clive's program as well. So sometimes, I'll confused and cheer with "I'm a Millionaire Investor" instead of "You have a Millionaire Mind". LOL! It's good to be able to understand more about myself internally and the root cause of our money concepts. By understanding that, then it'll be easier to correct the issue(s), if any. In fact, one of the main reasons why I'm there is because I want to see how they upsell things. As I've heard about ...
