Nestle Dropped Drastically

As much as Nestle went up exponentially, the counter also dropped drastically since it was published in the press to sell or to hold on as it could go beyond its intrinsic value. I did make some money through Nestle share counter and right now it is paper loss. I will hold on for it to go up again, hopefully before elections. The dividends will be given out on 31st May 2018 according to the press. By the way, it is the most expensive share prior to the drop for a consumer product. I do make a few hundreds to a thousands here and there via the stock market investing using technical analysis.

Nestle - the most expensive counter on BURSA Malaysia

Since its last trade, it was a high of 128 ringgit a share! This is easily the highest counter or most expensive share on BURSA Malaysia. For the record, Nestle is the biggest food producer in the world; selling products like Milo, Nescafe, Maggi noodles, Cremaria ice-cream, Purina pet food, Omega-3 milk powder and more. I do buy 1- 3 lots of shares of Nestle and made good profits, in the thousands and hundreds. It is so much easier than writing articles for so much work and little income. For Trip101 travel articles, you need to write at least 1,000 words plus editing pictures for a mere USD 10.

More than 1 Million Freelancers in Malaysia

There are more than 1 Million freelancers in Malaysia, estimated to be about 1.35 Million total. This is big number and it might get bigger. People are choosing freelancing at home compared to working in a formal environment with much pressure, office politics, back stabbing to get ahead, others taking credit for the work you do, or you do the work of someone else and not getting appreciated, etc. The list is endless. Hence, it is better to be your own boss, calling the shots and working when you are in the mood and take power naps when you are tired. Thank goodness, my boss, despite all his inadequacies, is still bringing in many jobs constantly and this could be blessings from heaven.

Staying Safe in my Cocoon

I feel safe from the world, especially in-laws, out-laws, and what not. Just get preoccupied with blogging and work by the computer writing articles and doing student assignments to keep me mentally active. So far, I had written student assignments for a medical student on Cryotherapy, a hospitality and hotel student in creating a menu and explaining my choices and opening a restaurant, for a Computer Science student on a written article about the effects of technology on Children, Business articles, etc. WriterBay is a good platform but tries not to be penalised for plagiarism, delays, etc. The fines can be quite hefty!

Saga, Persona drive Proton sales up 13% in October to 5,083 car


Proton recorded stronger sales in October 2017, up 13% from September with the Saga and Persona being the most popular choices.

The national car maker said on Sunday the sales in October rose to 5,083 units from 4,498 units in September 2017.

During the January-October period, sales rose 6% to 61,380 units compared with 57,734 units in the previous corresponding period.

“The Saga and Persona continue to dominate the trend, both contributing 70% to the overall Proton car sales, with 26,343 units of Saga and 16,833 units of Persona sold,” it said.

“Known as the Value for Money Car, the Saga continues to remain as Proton’s most popular choice among Proton owners,” it said.

From as low as RM35,590.29 (excluding insurance and road tax) for a 1.3 litre standard to RM44,342.25 for a 1.3L Premium CVT, the new Saga offers great drivability, performs much more smoothly and has modern and practical convenient features like three USB ports for mobile charging and excellent audio play.

Proton said in terms of safety, the Saga has also been upgraded to four-star Asean NCAP with the Premium variant having advanced features like the ESC, ABS, EBD, traction control, brake assist, hill hold assist, airbags, ISOFIX and top-tether, with all-around sensors.

The Persona, which received an award for Best Compact Car after it was launched, saw a 57.5% increase year-to-date with 16,833 units sold compared to 10,687 units a year ago.

The new generation Persona has not only received an entirely new look but also has 510 litres of boot space, making the car a popular choice among a wider range of customers.

The Persona is suited for college students, soccer moms, young executives, small family or even active souls.

Its starting price is RM44,831.09 (excluding insurance and road tax). The five-star NCAP car is equipped with all-around sensors, ESC, ABS with EBD, brake assist, traction control system and hill-hold assist as standard features across all variants.

Proton vice president of sales & marketing Abdul Rashid Musa encouraged customers to take advantage of “our Amazing 5 Value promotion that is currently running, with RM0 maintenance fee for up to five years and savings of up to RM8,000 for a Proton car”.

“The RM0 maintenance includes parts, engine oil and labour charges for a hassle-free maintenance and peace of mind to our customers. From just RM398 a month, you can bring home a champion,” Rashid added.

Many Articles to Write

There are many trip articles to write like Trip101, TripZilla, TripCanvas, TripHobo, etc. Trip101 is from Singapore while the rest could be from Malaysia, India and Indonesia. They pay quote all right, not too much and neither too little. You are paid just enough to motivate you to continue but you won't get rich this way. It is hard work with hours of research and curated articles. But it certainly keeps me on my toes all the time. Also, need to save up some cold hard cash for my coming overseas trip later in December, just before Christmas, where I shall return to Penang.

I love reading

My writing has improved by leaps and bounds. I read a lot of daily newspapers, financial magazines and the like. It has helped me in my writing work and blogging for some revenue. I am always hustling and hate to idle; because an idle mind is the devil's workshop. When you are free and idle, you start thinking of ways to get back at people and hurt them to feel better - some obnoxious people are born this way. Anyway, I shall dwell on the positive and hope to improve myself even further by doing a successful e-commerce so that I am not at the mercy of my boss cum friend with a very hot-temper and unpredictable. Then, I can have time and money freedom to do the things that I love like writing, blogging, selling and fulfilling orders.
