MG wanted to know what I would do if I had one million bucks. Since I’m in Malaysia, let’s assume that the currency is RM. Having joined the workforce just less than a month ago, I have been thinking about plans and stuff. Most of them though, are dreams. (Sure la, first paycheque also haven’t taken yet). But hey, who knows if they will come true? In Chinese, they say 美梦成真! Anyway, let us now dive into dream mode:-

Contrary to what most people would do, my first priority is not to get something I truly like. I would dive into investments. In other words - make the money grow! Invest in the stock market, funds, properties, etc.. Of course, I’ll need to study, do research and analyze thoroughly the market because I could make losses. I may get an expert or two to help me with this. The returns may not be immediately noticeable, but they’ll bear fruit in the long run.

I could also decide on buying my own house. It’s not gonna be a cash-and-carry kind of thing, because I could always work out a flexible financial plan. So now, what if I have some money to spare? This is where shopping comes in. Maybe upgrade my wardrobe, buy a new guitar, a nice watch, etc.. I don’t have spend it all right? I love cars - I’m a motoring freak but come to think of it, my job does not require me to drive alot. Maybe a cheap one would do, until I’m really earning enough.

So, if I had one million ringgit, yeah - I’d probably do as mentioned. Now let’s snap back to reality. It’s not gonna come easy. Although I think my job can provide me a decent lifestyle, I am not sure about becoming a millionaire. Maybe I could, if I get promoted to top-management level. Otherwise, it’ll take ’something else’ to make me a millionaire. I’ll need divine intervention, lol.

P/s: Would I have thought the same if I had a girlfriend? *Food for thought…*

I am not gonna pass this meme to anyone, but I hope you guys enjoyed reading my version!
