Hello, taking a leap of faith just like you mentioned.

Honestly, life since graduation has been all about grinding and farming more money. In the past few months, I've been settling my investment portfolio, insurance coverage and discussing with my financial advisor about retirement plans.

This has been nothing but DEPRESSING and it feels as if adulting has been all about chalking up numbers to save up for a comfortable inevitable demise.

This year, my resolution is in line with my view towards life. While I do feel that retirement planning and having a stable career is important, I also think that one should place more emphasis on enjoying the present. That's why in 2021, I want to set aside some $$ to focus on bettering myself in aspects that I feel is meaningful to me (probably exclusively), and not just concentrate about progressing in my career. Besides the same mundane "I want to earn $xxx by dec 2021", here is the crazy resolution which I want to work towards (p.s. if I told this to my Asian parents I'd be kicked out of my house with immediate effect):

I want to be recognised in the ESports scene- more specifically in Hearthstone, a game which i have been playing as a free to play player since army days ( close to 8 years now). I have only started paying to catch up with new game features when I've started work, simply because I no longer have time to grind for free resources.

Throughout these 8 years, I have reached the legend rank (usually at least top 5000 players) each month and I want to continue to be part this exclusive list of players even during my hustle. As part of this process, I want to bring the hearthstone scene in Singapore to greater heights. I see the current hearthstone environment in Singapore as quiet, with much room for improvement as the player base is huge. I envision myself doing this through streaming on Twitch and sharing my best moments on Youtube while gaming during my spare time.

This, however, takes alot of time and effort. Streaming is time-consuming and requires me to invest in my existing electronics and gaming equipment. In addition, Hearthstone as a game is getting more expensive and while I stay committed to this resolution, I will probably feel bad for spending an exorbitant amount three times each year ( yes- they suck your money during each expansion cycle). So will be nice if seedly can be my sugar daddy and support me :).

So yes, please don't judge and support thank you. Have an awesome weekend everyone and see you at the hearth.

In 2021 I hope that I can

1. Save $12k in 2021.
2. Take up digital mkting courses and also social media management course
3. Upgrade myself and start a side hustle to earn additional income.
4. To be more patient with my family.
5. Learn to invest more and to generate a passive income.

I want to increase my income so that I can increase the quality of life for my family and still save up for my future.

Thank you Seedly team! You've helped me so much in my financial journey 😊
