Wild at Heart

The sky rocketting petrol prices has sparked off a hot topic - Conversion to a cleaner and cheaper fuel - NGV or sometimes referred to as CNG.

NGV stands for Natural Gas for Vehicles whereas CNG is compressed Natural Gas. Both terms can be used interchangeably.

So I did a quick calculation of my petrol spending for the last few months and average just RM240 monthly (125litres). Yeah, I don’t drive that much, just sending and picking up kids from school.

If I do convert to NGV, I could save the price difference between petrol now at RM2.70 and NGV priced at RM 0.68. Making my savings just RM250 monthly or just RM3,000 yearly.

NGV conversions cost between RM3,500 to RM5,500 and with some banks 24-36 months easy payment plans, I could easily pay the installation costs, with the RM250 savings I get monthly.

So will I do it, well I will go check it out today, as the NGV conversion centre is just 2 km from my home.

Everyone needs to do something about the environment and I guess this is my contribution to green the earth and use a cleaner burning fuel.

Will keep you updated soon.

I liked this so much, so I want to share this with you.

Unfortunately, everyone is looking for good, cheap and fast. But you only can select 2 out of 3.

I guess with everything I do online and offline, I fall into the good and fast, but never cheap. Which brings me back to one of Gucci’s famous quotes: -

“Quality is remembered, long after price is forgotten”

It’s nice to be treated well and honestly, and most people will not mind, paying a bit more, to enjoy the quality service they get from you.

It’s always easier to explain once, why you cost a little more, rather than make excuses why your product or service, failed to meet your customers expectations.

Good products and service, costs money and most people, do not mind paying a bit more, for peace of mind, rather than finding a cheap bargain that will ultimately cost more in the long run.

Here are 2 screenshots of my feedback scores from eBay.

And that is why, people continue to buy from me!

June 15th will be Fathers Day and also my late Dad’s birthday!. To all fathers out there, a very Happy Father’s Day!. I do hope you are proud of your kids as they are proud of calling you dad.

Almost 9 years has past since my dad died. I do have fond memories of my dad, and regret not spending enough time with him, when I really should have.

If you do have your dad (and mom) still around, it’s never too late to show your love and appreciation, as it’s no use regretting later when they are gone.

So what will you get Dad this year, another shirt, cologne, watch, dinner or holiday? Or will you get him some health products to add years to his life and life to his years. It’s worth it and at least you will not have regrets like me.

Some of my popular Father’s Day presents selling well this year are

a) Bioslife - for cholesterol, diabetes, blood pressure

b) CM Plex - for arthritis and joint pains

c) Enjuvenate - anti aging and energy and

d) Hawaiian Noni - general health

Happy Father’s Day to me!.

My friend Mun Leng just told me her Kelisa full tank used to be RM60 but yesterday, it cost her RM90 to fill up after the 40% increase!.

I wonder if the credit card companies will give a 24 month installment plan, when a full tank costs RM500…..hahahahaha!.

I wrote a blog about the 2 choices everyone has - either to spend wisely or to wise up and start to earn some extra money in a passive business.

Enjoy the weekend and happy reading.

Tomorrow will be a sad day for many people. Petrol goes up 78 sen to RM2.70 - a 40% increase and Diesel goes up 100sen - a 60% increase!.

Public transportation will grind to a halt, as their fare increases have yet to be approved, and there will be chaos.

And 1st July, electricity prices go up 17%. Double whammy, but with some grace period, so everyone has a chance to die slowly or take action from today!

So near to Euro 2008, I guess those not interested in football will have something else to talk about.

2 options are open to everyone. Change your lifestyle, get a NGV kit, downsize to a smaller car, motorbike or bicycle, buy a fuel saver and electricity saver to save more? Or just go increase your earnings by at least RM500 - RM1,000 and earn more?. Earning more is of course much more fun!.

But you know people are so stubborn and wil give me 101 excuses why they cant sell, promote or do any word of mouth advertising. I can only help those who are willing to change with the times and adapt to the real world today!.

I’ve just helped a friend get started and in 4 days, she’s already earned over RM 500 and by end of June, she is targetting to earn close to RM2,000.

Its 10.30pm and the 2 petrol stations in front of my house are filled to the brim!. Trying to save RM20-30 for just a tankful and wasting 2 hours getting stuck in the jam and polluting the environment.

Gee is their time cost RM10 per hour so cheap?. I’d rather spend my 2 hours doing something more productive and creative, so I can earn more online/offline.

Such is difference between the millionaire minds and the broke minds.
