Being a copycat, and starting my own tblog...

This is the floorplan of the resale flat I just bought 5I. It is urgently in need of renovation, as the seller rented the place out to at least 10 tenants at last count.

I am not sure if i uploaded the link to the pictures correctly, hope u guys can see.

Anyway, we have been searching for IDs and we have been quoted by the following companies:

1. Sense Ideas Design P/L

2. Plush Conceptz

3. KoongYee Renovation Works P/L

I am still waiting for quotes from:

4. Interior File

5. Ideal Design

I contacted a few trusted contractors to do the job but unfortunately they are all busy till end September. I will be collecting my keys on the 18 Aug. Due to me mum's Geomancer requirements, we need to do a "ceremonial" moving by 19 September, hence I would like at least the flooring to be done by then. Too soon?

first a welcome to RT!

erm...pics u hv to use pic link. click on the tab which says insert iimage and copy the photobucket link to the box that pop up. then it shd be shown liao.

not so sure abt ur flooring...u will still need to talk to ur contractor/ID. Let them know ur requirement and schedule then for them to tell u whether can or not.

thanks. Yeaps i will be at 500+. It looks like a quiet neighbourhood, that is why I chose this place.

The problem I have with my current place is that there is just too much noise in the day time, I trade American hours, and the noise at my block (Ang Mo Kio) is relentless. They are upgrading the park and the lifts in the opposite blocks, so i have been inundated with construction noise. And during the rare occasion when there is no construction works, hokkien karoake, malay weddings, toaist funeral wakes or kids running around will fill the airwaves. I think i will stop my ranting here...

Based on his blog, looks like he trades ES futures and Gold futures. I may be wrong I would say it's full time although usually you don't need to sit there and stare at the screen once you enter a position. Perhaps on average 3-4 hours per day(night)?

thanks ossify, helpful as always.

Most welcome

Yes it is real hard work, never worked so hard in my life. And ossify is right, my favourite instruments are Eurostoxx 50, ES, Gold and AUD futures. Taking a 2-3 months break to go for a holiday and taking a hands on approach to renovation.

Great success!
