Shoppingmum’s Office Life

Personally, I feel that women are bigger spenders than men, but we spend differently. Just tell a woman that she can look younger by 10 years with an anti aging product, most likely she will buy it, even if it cost her a bomb! Let’s not forgetting about shoes and bags and jewelry. All these [...]

I’ve just received a notice about our car insurance, so we have to renew it by next month. How time flies. We are here for more than a year, and even if our business is still quite slow, we are striving fine in this foreign land. So far, I would say that staying in Bangkok [...]

Our business picked up a bit last month, but I am not sure if it’s only a temporary effect. Maybe some of our customers need to get some replacement parts, but not the whole electronic industry is picking up. This year is slower, as comparing to last year, so we have to work harder. Let’s [...]

 I realized that I have never bought myself any jewelry. All of them were given by hubby and some by my close family members on my wedding day. Frankly, I don’t wear jewelry, but I like to see how pretty they are, especially the stones and diamonds. I’m a bit tight to get myself those [...]

 I’ve just read the news about more people are getting jobless now, and things are getting pretty bad in Thailand. I used to be a big spender, but since I moved here, I hardly buy anything too expensive. I think I better plan out my money well, even if I won’t invest in Monex and [...]

I have CIMB accounts, but I found this email is not convincing enough.
Dear CIMB Bank customer,
We are hereby notifying you that we’ve recently suffered a DDos-Attack on one of our’s Internet Banking server. For security reasons you must complete the next steps to verify the integrity of your CIMBClicks account. If you fail to [...]

 I heard that it’s only best to have not more than RM60k in the banks in Malaysia, so I quickly called my dad and ask him to transfer his money. I know that he has a lump sum of savings, and I really don’t want him to risk losing his money, if the economy is [...]

I know that it’s predicted that the economy is getting worse, but then, I still see people shopping and spending money like crazy during the recent sales. Maybe they are spending with credit cards so they hardly feel the pain until they receive the monthly statement. I know someone who lives lavishly, but owns the [...]

I’m a shopaholic who enjoys shopping for clothes, shoes and bags. If I don’t spend that much every month, I should be able to save up a lot and use that money for investment. I am not sure if I will make a profit in the future, but investing in shares or rare coin is [...]

I don’t have a bank account here but sooner or later, we will have to open an account for our money. I think I better keep some money in the bank instead of spending it off on shopping trips!
I haven’t tried online Savings Account before, but it seems like WaMu will be one of [...]
