After Hong Kong we took a ferry and went to Macau. Stayed at Best Western Taipa and went casino hopping.
Finally I was able to try my hands on the slot machine, not much luck though but it was fun. Shopping was amazing in St. Paul’s Ruins. It was jam packed with people native and tourists alike and I had a good time looking through the variety of pastries for pasalubong.
To those I missed out … sowwweeeee … am going back this month anyways.
St. Paul’s Ruins.
As usual some of the photos are in his cam and am hoping he’ll send them via email soon. For the ones I took, check em out here: Macau : March 2009 Album
It is hard to find a good source of trust fund to finance your investment in the future. Especially for a young adult like me who is earning more that the minimum wage, it is the best time to think about how I can look beyond the present and save. However, searching for some good establishments is no effortless task. I should have a basic understanding of how money works when it comes to the plans that I will apply. I need to know if the money that I will be spending will be worth it or will it have a good return of investment.
Because it is really difficult to see a good bank that is safe and secure, I ought to research more information about bonds and the like. It is not easy to just risk all your hard-earned money for an overnight scheme. You don’t want to see your capital to all go to waste just because you oversaw a particular flaw due to the lack of education or in other words, ignorance.
I have to understand the concepts and issues of credit unions versus banks. It would be best to have a good knowledge on the language of finance and investing because there are a number of people who get duped and fooled everyday due to people who know something taking advantage of people who know nothing. Also, in these trying times, you can not expect to just trust anyone because they will guarantee you huge proceeds of the bonds that you have signed. We should face the reality that aside from the recession, everybody has been wary and afraid and skeptical whether to engage themselves in a particular program which is actually a good thing. Most people will definitely provide some proper investigation before venturing into uncharted territories where money can lead you.
The trip has been planned months ago and I’ve been looking forward to it since then. We were able to save on the accomodation in HK because we stayed at his cousin’s house. We arrived Tuesday night (March 24, 2009) and went to Ocean Park the following day. Spent the whole day roaming around Ocean Park. The place is huge and packed with tourists like us.
Was amazed to see real live pandas up close and they’re just adorable. Since I can’t take a live one home I settled for the stuffed toy available in the souvenir shops within the park.
Some of the photos were in his cam, am not sure when he’d send them via email. But here’s a few snapshots from my cam.
