  • 又一個door-to-door 24 hours的旅程！叫taxi去logan是7：40am US time on Fri，上爹爹車係7：40pm HK time on Sat.
  • Cathay is the best!! 超強entertainment system，雖然已經搭了這麼多遍都係gum話。同埋special request了要特別照顧，調了去aisle seat！下了飛機後還有空中先生拿著我的名牌，問我要不要幫我拿行李。哈哈 如果leng jai d 我應該會應承 :p
  • 看了No Strings Attached, I am Number 4, 婚前試愛 and how I met your mother. thing is, 好多電影我都已經看過了。連big bang theory整個season我都看過了。orz …my favorite quote from No Strings Attached XD
    Adam: Wow, you go to MIT. You turned out to be a lot smarter than me.
    Emma: Yeah, sometimes my neck gets sore.
    Adam: Oh, why?
    Emma: Cause my brain is so big!
  • 讀了蘋果，WSJ同埋 Reader’s Digest. the gold market caught my attention this time..coz it is extensively covered in WSJ and 蘋果財經. dun know much about the gold/commodities market..beside those ABC-level definitions when I was preparing for FICC interview hahha. good to learn!
    1.  In 2011 Q1, China surpasses India as the top buyer of gold/metals in the world. China and India now each accounts for around a quarter of global gold demand.
    2. jewelery/industrial demand — apetite for gold: inflation x soaring RMB –> growing middle class and wealthy individuals in China –> want luxury goods that symbolize power and wealth (not just gold..brand products, jewelery, antiques, collectors items, real estates..etc)
    3. Investment demand — valuable portfolio diversification/hedge:  historically, physical gold holding is one of the safest long-term hedge against inflation given its low beta. Its even more attractive with its stable upward momentum –gold price rose by fourfold in the past decade, outpacing all other major US stock indexes.
    4. Government reserve demand: China central bank is incorporating more gold holdings into its reserve. For US.. came across another opinion column on whether US should sell assets like gold to cope with the recent budget crisis. When dollar is weak, ppl shift to gold.
      (yes..that’s what I do when i have nothing to do on the plane -__-)
