but overall he did good....

cheong wrong business, you in s**t. best go and buy something where there is passion and you can develop it.

But at the end of day, honesty is the key in business, no honesty - your effort is wasted

start somewhere, and develop from there. Something as simple as collecting second hand goods, can get you started. The key is to get a cash flow going, once you have that, you can look to other ideas.

Now I am freelance sales for watches and advertising material. It starting to pick up, so now must learn to stand up on the surfboard, and start surfing.

Wow... NP got such program........ maybe I develop idea and approach them

even if you dont have enough money, you can get venture capitalist to come and fund your project. just make sure your project WORKS!! Otherwise the financier come in and take everything.

many foreign universities are currently having corresponding programs with local education centres. with economic crisis, one can have the option of doing a degree with foreign universities.

however, some courses are run with lecturers coming in for like 2 weeknights and entire weekend to conduct one semester of course material. usually not all topics are covered comprehensively. so some topics are left out and students have to do their own study.

another downside, students do not have access to lecturer face-to-face after the weekend. it is very rush and you wont possible have thought of questions to ask in just 3 full days. this is because you have digest the entire syllabus in 3 full days compared to if you do it overseas where u have 10 weeks to digest and think about the subject content.

i have never attended local university. i dont know what is it like compared to doing it overseas. my grades for A levels were deemed not good enough but foreign universities gave me an opportunity. i appreciate them and that is why when i was given an opportunity to tutor for them. i took it.

im currently back to university studying doing corresponding program. i hope to be able to do my thesis with the university overseas, provided i reach that stage.
