Ini tweet pasal kumpul harta semasa lockdown, terutama kepada yg muda2 dan baru bekerja.

Jgn kecam kata “skrg nak makan pun susah, bukn nk kumpul harta”

Harta ada mcm2 & portfolio harta kena betul dr muda.

Baca bebenang #hartalockdown 🤣
Rezeki saya lebih baik dr sebahagian besar org lain, alhamdulillah.

Bergaji besar pertengahan 20an & bebas hutang awal 30an.

Perspektif saya mengenai harta sgt berbeza dgn rakan2 yg lain - dr zaman muda smpai skrg
Kebanyakan yg ada kerjaya baik semasa muda sibuk berlumba2 menggayakan wang yg mereka ada.

Semasa saya bergaji besar, org lain yg gaji mcm saya sibuk beli kereta BMW/Merc & rumah yg mortgage juta2.

Saya beli apartment RM200+k & kereta Honda. Masih duduk di apartment yg sama.
Sebabnya bila kita ada wang lebih & wang itu digunakan utk menambah hutang, kita hilang peluang:

1) peluang utk bebas buat keputusan kerana terikat dgn bayaran pinjaman bulanan

2) peluang utk menggunakan wang lebih utk menjana harta yang ada potensi lebih baik dr makan gaji
Nasihat pertama saya kpd staf saya yg muda:

Be practical, buy a quality car & a decent home. Jangan mahal tp memadai fungsinya dgn yg kita perlu.

Simpan selebihnya sebagai cash utk beri kita opportunistic investment value.
Wang simpanan tunai saya melebihi RM1 juta menjelang saya umur 30 tahun.

Perkiraan saya, kalau saya tidak kerja pun ia cukup utk bbrp tahun.

Sbb itu saya ada lebih ruang utk ambil risiko dlm kerjaya saya: tinggalkan makan gaji bergaji besar, kmdn buka startup dll
Sebelum kecam saya pasal anak muda skrg xde kerja, ini pandangan saya:

Harta yg paling berguna dan perlu dikumpul semasa muda bukanlah wang ringgit atau kebendaan.

3 harta paling penting masa muda:

1) kematangan melalui pengalaman
2) kemahiran
3) nilai & jati diri
Hanya dgn melalui pelbagai pengalamn baru kita mendapat kematangan.

Belajar dari org yg lebih berpengalaman - belajar dr kejayaan dan kegagalan mereka.

Ikut yg baik, jauhi yg tidak baik.

Jgn tolak peluang utk menimba pengalaman x kira apa pun kerja atau keadaan.
Bila sudah matang, kita boleh proses mana yg baik & buruk dgn lebih pantas.

Org muda yg matang boleh menilai sesuatu keadaan dengan lebih jauh melangkaui apa yg dia nampak di mata kasar.

Sbb dia ada pangkalan data mengenai contoh2 org lain yg telah melalui keadaan itu
Harta kemahiran ialah kebolehan teknikal dan peribadi kita.

Klu jurutera, jadilah jurutera yg sgt mahir. Klu akauntan, jadilah seorg yg tajam angka bukan hanya auditor cabuk yg kerjanya salin kerja tahun lepas ha3.

Membina harta kemahiran paling mencabar sbb kena terus belajar
Apabila sudah jadi disiplin kita dari muda dahagakan ilmu, kita akan terus belajar. Harta kemahiran akan terus dikumpul.

Kalau majikan tak hargai, ada banyak pilihan lain sbb kita ada kemahiran yg org lain tidak ada.

Dgn kemahiran & kematangan jg datang keyakinan.
Harta ketiga yg menjamin kebahagiaan dunia akhirat ialah harta nilai hidup & jati diri.

Hidup biarlah jujur. Jgn sesekali mengambil hak orang. Jgn nak kaya cepat atau curi tulang. Jgn pijak org sbb nak naik.

Kalau kaya harta kemahiran & kematangan ttp tiada nilai, rosak jadinya
Bila dari muda kumpul harta nilai hidup & jati diri, kita melindungi diri kita dari penyakit minda yg akan merosakkan kita di hari tua - sama ada kaya atau miskin.

Ramai org cerdik bawa bencana kpd diri & masyarakat kerana tiada nilai hidup.

Ramai org bodoh (sambung sndri) ha3
Nasihat saya, dikala kita didatangkan ujian spt sekarang, ia peluang baik mengumpul harta.

Mulakan dgn mengumpul harta yg kekal sampai bila2 & lebih berguna:

1) kematangan melalui pengalaman
2) kemahiran
3) nilai hidup
In Sha Allah apabila pandemik ini sudah reda, ada banyak peluang ekonomi & buat harta benda yg akan datang.

Ttp hanya anak muda yg matang, berkemahiran & ada nilai hidup yg akan dpt ambil peluang buat harta sbb dirinya berada di kedudukan yg lebih baik.
Selamat mengumpul harta!

Klu ada wang lebih, simpan. Jgn berbelanja lebih2.

Klu kurang wang & tahu banyak benda tidak kena dlm masyarakat, angkat bendera hitam.

Klu tiada wang & perlu bantuan, angkat bendera putih.

Klu tiada wang tp nak jatuh hukum, angkat bendera hijau 🤣

My dearest Ben -

Daddy cannot sleep (again!), with your hand on my face deep in your sleep, I thought I spend the night saying things I had always wanted to say to you.

You are the best achievement of my life; whatever you grow up to be.

#thread

#tweetsforBen
I remember the first time holding you in my arms and I instantly cried.

There was nothing more beautiful than your little eyes looking into mine.

I knew from that moment that I didn’t deserve you.
You taught me the meaning of unconditional love.

I struggled from day one to be someone worthy of you, yet everything about you remind me of Allah’s mercy.

You came into my life while I was busy searching for some meanings; and through you I found the meaning of life.

Gambaran paling tepat nasib rakyat biasa sekarang ialah #kalahkalah

Minggu depan mungkin diumumkan PKP (lockdown) sekali lagi.

Saya pasrah dan saya faham, tapi bagi jutaan rakyat spt saya yg ada tanggungan dll; lockdown ada harga yg besar

#thread
Jangkitan COVID semakin di luar kawalan.

Saya faham tidak ada cara lain utk hadapi keadaan ini kecuali dengan lockdown.

Saya ingat semua akan pandai2 sendiri bila ada lockdown sekali lagi, dah faham sangat #kitajagakita
Tapi bencana ini sepatutnya boleh dielakkan.

Kalau siri curi mencuri kerajaan tidak berlaku sejak Februari, PRN Sabah September lalu mungkin tidak berlaku.

Tanpa PRN Sabah, gelombang ketiga COVID tidak berlaku.

How does one go through life disappointments when you feel you are let down?

Know your value.
Preserve your value.
Only extend your value to those who value you.

Valueing your selfworth is key to being a focus person to achieve whatever you want.

#valueThread
Why do we face disappointments?

Because we are let down. Sometimes by ourselves but mostly by others around us.

Our loved ones. Colleagues at work. People we care.

They let us down because they don’t value us. They take us for granted.

It happens to anyone who has ever lived.
Once you are on a downward spiral, it’s difficult to get out.

Most of the time the spiral is unavoidable.

You’ll keep trying to protect whatever harmony you value but the only constant outcome is to be taken for granted even more.

You get even more crushed, hence the spiral.

I missed my wedding anniversary last Thurs.

She was smiling in the am when I had bfast, she was smiling when I came back late from a game. All along waiting for me to realise it was our wedding anniversary.

This thread will not make up for the neglect, but I hope you read it.
We have always taken pride that we are unconventional.

After all, we only met once when I was 15 before I met you again at 32.

Met 5 times before I proposed through an email (ha3), and you said yes.

Then I forgot to reply to the email.
I remember meeting your parents for the first time.

Your mom asked me: "Betul ke nak kahwin ni?"

I guess everyone thought it was a joke.

Your dad was simpler: "Please imamkan solat Maghrib"

I guess I passed ha3.

Have you ever had a friendship so intense that it influenced your life so much?

Well, I did.

Much of what I did since he died was living a life that he would have wanted.

This is a thread about a beautiful friendship that was taken away too abruptly. Image
The photo was taken somewhere in Durham in late autumn 1998, about 2 months after Reformasi broke out in Malaysia.

I still occasionally smoke then - was an on-off social smoker ha3.

Ben left Malaysia en route to Germany and spent a few weeks with me in the UK.
I first met Ben (Adlan Benan Omar) in MCKK in 1990. He was my debating captain and coach.

He went to Abingdon School in Oxfordshire for A-Levels and became the head boy, then read History and Law at Cambridge University.

He founded @UKEC and co-founded @KalsomMovement

Everyone should aspire to own a business because nothing beats the freedom of working for yourself.

I thought if I could run multi-billion business before, starting and running a startup should be easy.

Well, not exactly.

If you have a similar dream, read this.
A startup is not just about starting a business. It is about solving a problem that affects many people (“pain points”), which doesn’t seem to have a solution yet.

It is about innovating the way we do things. Doing things differently.

That’s why startup is always abt tech.
Stories abt startup founders are almost similar around the world.

You experienced a snag. You felt things should have been better.

You get curious & feel you have a solution to the problem.

You explored the idea and thought this could work.
