Are You Interested in 6~15% Return Annually from Stock Market Investment: Insight

Most of my friends know that I have involved in stock market investment for years. The very first question they tend to ask me is about the amount of return.

Should We Serve Our Companies during Notice Period: Benefits to Serve Notice

Of course, we should serve our notice period as stated in the contract that agreed by both parties (you and your company). On one hand, it is our responsible to fulfill our agreement or contract.

However, we should bear in mind that there is no free lunch in this world. The amount of salary is always equavalent to the amount of workload and responsible in workplace.
