Ranking for 2009

Jan is coming to an end. This means that our performance ranking for year 2009 is out already. I went to meet my ex manager in cck yesterday. I was confident i could get good ranking. Even though i left the branch in oct last year, i see no reason that my ranking could be affected.

We had a small talk, she gonethrough with me, what were the areas i'm strong at, and what were the areas i could inprove on. At the very last page of the report, she congrats me! I was ranked a Band 1! I was happy though, and i thanked her for fairness, as i wasn't her staff anymore, she could have given her own staff this ranking...

I joined DBS in March 2006, its about 4 years. Met many kinds of ppl, and of course get to know that sporean are VERY VERY rich. And the only way to get rich, is to make your money work harder for you. That is, through investment. There are simply too many types of investments, you have to more or less have some knowledge in it. Coz if you're going to keep your $$ underneath your pillow (inside your bank account), one day you will find your 50k becomes 40k, and 40k becomes 30k, and so on. Inflation rate is definately higher than the interest rate in our savings account.

Of course i'm not asking ppl to speculate stocks, or to risk your hard earned cash. It really depends on your risk appetite.. High risk high returns. Low risk minimal returns. I just hope my new zealand dollars can grow faster!
