Hi. Meet Tod's D bag, the no 1 item on my lust list.
Unfortunately, i foresee that it's going to stay on my lust list for quite sometime...given that I have neither the money nor the guts to splurge on a 2k bag
BUT. The bag will be mine someday. Maybe when I get my bonus. Or when I am done saving up and have started growing my investment cash stream.
Tell me about delay gratification!! It's like the pain from a paper cut. It's ignorable but hurts enough to let you know it's there.
(Paper cuts. Got one yesterday and another today...evidently inspirational)

"Salary credit" says my savings account summary.
It's been 3 months since I've started work at you-know- where and I must say, I'm settling down into the 9-630 routine comfortably.
I sat down for lunch with my ex colleague who left 2 weeks ago for "Brolly". Apparently, working at brolly can get overwhelming. Poor colleague of mine didn't even manage to finish his food, which is very uncharacteristic of him.
According to him, he stayed till 830pm on his first workday. Worked throughout his first weekend and has to learn to work on the job. (I was formally trained - a luxury maybe) Then again, all the above negatives are negated by 1 positive: His pay increased substantially.
At the end of the day, it all boils down to what you isn't it?
What trade offs will you make?
I don't think I have any complains with where I am now.
Work is manageable but challenging enough to keep me occupied.
My weekends are undisturbed because we're not allowed to bring work home.
It is good place to be. As I am told.
Hence....I see more paper cuts and more lust in the near future.
ROA and ROE is sufficiently high with short-medium term outlook stable.
Primary evaluation: B+ with validity of 6 months.
Subjected to secondary and third evaluation in time to come!
