what is rich?

( https://www.facebook.com/share/v/171xvrrQUP/ Johnny Harris has a great video on how centiMMaires spend vs centiMMMairs )

I love talking about this stuff because it's so completely irrelevant to ordinary people. My usual points are

1. if your kids think their goal in life is to make money, they're probable aiming too low unless they have THIS scope of the landscape

2. it's irrelevant to personal desire for material things, because at this level it is purely reasonable to diversify into owning a variety of material assets

3. all that said and done, you can still tell which of the cash rich are really just intellectual plebs based on which experiences they buy

tugas ADRM

Sebenarnya tugas Ahli Dewan Rakyat :

✅ Gubal undang

✅ Bahas undang

✅ Ubah undang

✅ Tebang undang

❌ Pergi majlis2

❌ Ketuk bandaraya

❌ Kejar penguatkuasa

❌ Jaga dana tempatan

Tapi Malaysia tak matang lagi. Jadi jentera politik satu negara kolot, kemelut, serabut. 

questions on consistency of style

I had some training in writing before 2001, though I have not identified as a writer. But given that my social life for most of a quarter century centres around my public notes, I hope that curated artifact performs its function precisely, regardless of what people call it.

Sometimes I have individuals commenting on particular notes, or specific phrases used. But since I think very little of the notes as individual tools, I struggle to reply on particulars. And generally as a matter of politics, I wonder if and when it may land me in court or jail or other penalty. Those considerations are just like air, in this country I was born in, for the time being, while I have been here.
