The Story Between You and MeThere was a time ..

where I used to think that owning a house was an easy thing. That was back in 2003 though. With 2011 coming to an end, the prices of house are at an astronomical level, one could wonder what sort of salary only you could own an intermediate house at a location nearby. The photo above shows houses built by Kenbest just opposite my neighborhood. Asking price ? RM 728K. Insane isn't it ? With my own calculation the only house range I could afford based on my salary would be around RM 180k only if I wanted to include all those furniture and electrical stuff in. If I went to buy a RM 280k house, I could expect to have an empty house at least for another 3 years while I eat grass every month. But that was all ... a... "there was a time".


I went to have some peek at mattress some few weeks ago and was again dumbstruck once again. Why the mattress are so expensive ? They always advertise so many new technology built into the mattress to ensure supreme sleeping experience. So why not invest in technology that lower the prices of this exorbitant stuff ? Even with such a comfortable mattress, I highly doubt I could get a good night sleep knowing my pocket is burnt as deep as the rabbit hole. And rabbit hole goes very very very deep.
