Bold Predictions Not for the Faint Hearted

* Take advantage of 2016 $500 Training Credit now, not 2016 at here *
After reading the world's analysis, these are my 7 predictions for 2015 (as written on 21 Feb 2015):

Low Interest rates in USA will not only not rise (as promised by Yellen), but remain the same or even decline. The recent rise in the US Dollar will be reversed by the second half of the year
If you think that the market is awash with liquidity, there will be even more hot money floating around. This is because Europe and other nations like Canada, Japan, China and Australia are now embarking on 'Quantum Easing', or printing of money into their economies
Financial crisis will not materialize, instead there could be an Energy Crisis and Commodity Crisis. This means that everything will become cheaper due to the persistent low oil prices. (note: I predict oil price will be below US$60 a barrel for most of 2015)
Slow economic growth (less than 2%) will be the norm, and 1% to 1% growth is considered 'very good'
Property prices in Singapore and most of the world will not go down, but in fact rise slightly towards the last quarter of 2015. Note that property price in Singapore has less to do with demand and supply and more to do with government policies. The Singapore government will not allow property prices to collapse in 2015. Some easing of the cooling measures will happen by May 2015.
Unemployment will rise in all countries as the world's economies are moving towards MI (mobile internet). With mobile, less people are needed for economic activities.
Mobile Rules. Mobile will not only rule the economy but rule the world in other areas like politics, sports and travel. If your business has little mobile presence, your business is either very special or very quiet.

The Secret Under the Mattress: Why would a 79-year Man Bet So Big on 4D?

It was 2007 when we discovered his secret. While moving my father’s mattress, we found them: heaps and heaps of Singapore Pools 4D tickets. They were stacked in layers, a paper trail of lost hopes. What shocked us most wasn’t just the volume, but the stakes. He wasn’t betting a few dollars for fun. He was punting hundreds of dollars per draw—nearly ten times a month. At the time, my siblings and I were furious. Our father was a 79-year-old retiree. We wondered, with a mix of anger and confusion, why a man at his stage of life would need to win such "big money." What was he going to do with the money? We saw it as a reckless habit, a sign of poor judgment in his final years. Some of us would say, "If I were to give him money to buy 4D, why don't I use the money and buy 4D myself? At least I have better discipline". It has taken me two decades, and the experience of raising my own three grown-up children, to finally see the truth that was hidden under that matt...

Have You Found Your Sun Yi and Teresa Teng?

I n the long, unfolding history of the Chinese-language music scene, "The Moon Represents My Heart" 月亮代表我的心 stands as an unsurpassable milestone. Yet, the journey of this globally renowned masterpiece, a song that would eventually captivate the world, was fraught with setbacks: it was once dismissed as "trash" by its own creator and tossed into a wastebasket, later suppressed by official policy as a "banned song ," and initially failed to gain any traction when performed by two different singers. The dramatic turnaround in this song’s fate is not merely a musical legend; it offers a profound life lesson: the greatest stroke of luck in life is not about how perfect you are, but about encountering the "right people", those who truly understand you, support you, and help you realize your potential, at exactly the right moment. I. The First "Right Person": A "Talent Scout" Who Recognizes Your Worth In the early 1970s, composer T...
