A reader writes in, asking: “I’d like to ask your opinion on the announced reduced lot sizes in SGX coming in 2015. Do you think that with the almost certainty (in my opinion) of massive buying starting Jan 2015, many stock prices would rise significantly? Therefore if I have some capital now, would you advise […]
Quick question: How many hours of sleep did you get last night? 6 hours? 7? 4.5? Some people are secretly proud that they don’t get much sleep, and they wear their sleep deprivation like a badge of honour: “I’m damn shag today because I had soooooo little sleep last nigh…..zzzzzzz.” But when you don’t get enough
(Pre-post note: A bunch of you were psyched about using Lift after last week’s post, so I decided to do a series of posts on apps that I’ve found useful.) Sooooo – let’s talk about to-do lists. What’s the difference between a good to-do list and a crappy one? Here’s my definition: A CRAPPY to-do list

For some of you, it might be a no-nonsense article on investing in your twenties. For others, it might be one of those fluffy “7 Signs You’re in a Healthy Relationship”
Don’t tell anyone because I’m embarrassed, but I used to be a HUGE Eminem fan. I’d come home from school, use my comb as a makeshift mic, and lip-sync to all the songs on The Marshall Mathers LP on full blast. (Since I’m such a huge nerd, that was about the most gangsta that I’ve ever been
I have a terrible habit of blogging about topics long after they go out of fashion. If I were a journalist, I’d probably get fired because I’d always be reporting news 3 weeks too late. So in true cheerfulegg style, we’re gonna talk about football this week (because the World Cup just ended. Whoops). First
