Financial Freedom - Howard Hughes

Many must have seen the movie "The Aviator" starring Leonardo De Caprio as Howard Hughes. I enjoyed watching this movie and decided to have it in my financialfreedom101 blogspot.

Howard Hughes was born with a silver spoon. After inheriting 75% of his late father's multi billion fortune, he soon dropped out from Rice University, married and moved from Houston to Hollywood hoping to make a name for himself making movies.

Hughes's move is right.. He produced quite a number of success movies like Everybody's Acting and Hell's Angels . He had spent a then-unheard-of $3.8 million of his own money on Hell's Angels.

Hughes was also into aviation. He set many world records which he designed and built several aircraft himself. Hughes ownership and plans of TWA had a clash with Pan Am on international air travel.

Unfortunately, Hughes suffered obsessive-compulsive disorder.."he was obsessed with the size of peas—one of his favorite foods—and used a special fork to sort them by size before he ate. While producing The Outlaw, Hughes became obsessed by a minor flaw in one of Jane Russell's blouses, claiming that the fabric bunched up along a seam and gave the appearance of two nipples on each of Russell's breasts. He was reportedly so concerned by the matter as to write a detailed memorandum to the film crew on how to fix the problem." Source from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howard_Hughes

Hughes died on April 5 1976. Although many percieved him as a "weirdo", but his contributions had helped the entertainment and aviation industries soar to a greater height.

Financial Freedom - “Anything” and “Whatever"

Every Singaporean must have heard either from the news or seen their "seductive" ads around. For those who do not know what it is, “Anything” and “Whatever" is simply a beverage can drink.

Mr Robert Tan, the Managing Director of Out Of The Box Pte Ltd started this concept when he and his friends often encounter replies like "Anything" or "Whatever" when one being asked what beverage he/she would like to have. That's how Mr Robert Tan used these 2 words to his own branding of can drink.

Whatever : Non-Carbonated drink i.e. Tea (you may get apple tea, lemon tea ..... etc). Anything : Carbonate drink (you may get coke with lemon ..... etc)

My curiousity has made me wanna try out the drinks. Guess what, I chose the "Whatever" drink and its barley.

Financial Freedom - A Different Business From The Norms

Came across this article from our local newspaper, thought would be interesting to have it posted in this blog. This person known as Mr Ronnie Pang, was the man behind the sex tour business in Singapore. He wanted to make "business out of a hobby".

Mr Pang's business is conducting tour to sex conventions and erotica shows in the US. He market his campaigns by giving out flyers and emails. The trip cost about US$2000-$3500 and there's one rule to be obeyed. That is NO hanky-panky business is allowed.

I feel that this kind of activities should be discouraged. Agreed with this financial advisor who was interviewed by the press on this issue, he stated ".....Even if there are no sexual activities involved, these tours encourage Singaporeans to look at females as sexual objects and that in turn ruins our Asian upbringing."
