This is madness... $800,000 bucks a year earning as "host" (male club companion).   Interesting sharing by the woman who viewed her relationship with the paid male companion as "the person she is closest with now": "Couples in the foreign films I watch Stay together forever.
When Japanese marry and have kids, as soon as the kids grow up, their love fades.  "Dating, marriage and eventually babies" being chucked aside.  Sad.  Falling birth rates have put Japan's fertility at 1.4 children per woman.
 The population fell by 244,000, according to Health Ministry estimates released yesterday, a seventh straight year of decline. Births fell about 6,000 from a year earlier to 1,031,000 and deaths increased about 19,000 to 1,275,000.

Human behaviour is getting bizarre... as a result of life becoming overly stressful?  -Complicated primary school admission scheme.. Parent Volunteers scheme need to be interviewed...balloting for 2C phase within 1 km.... - Secondary school selection system .. need to undertake Higher Chinese to gain 2 marks to add to PSLE aggregate scores.   I like this practical and hassle free suggestion on Facebook:  "Very simple solution.......just wheel clamp her car for illegal parking and walk off. Let her pay the 200+ bucks to unclamp. The rest of the traffic could've been managed via the entrance barrier."

Hmmm. ... Preparation, coupled with hard work pay handsomely for this woman with BIG dream.   How to snare a millionaire: Sick of working as a shop girl, Kim reinvented herself with the sole aim of landing a rich husband - and got one
A recent survey showed most women still dream of marrying a millionaire. A year ago Kim Perez, 43 and working in a chemist’s shop, set out to fulfil that ambition. Here she tells ANNA PURSGLOVE how she succeeded …
Last spring, I flew to New York for a date with a man I had not met before. As I walked towards the arrivals lounge I frantically smoothed down my clothes, fretting that my carefully selected wardrobe (Moschino shirt, Mulberry holdall and fake-but-convincing diamond earrings) wouldn’t be showy enough to impress an American multi-millionaire. This, after all, was a man who owned a penthouse in Florida, a ski lodge in Colorado and a business pad in New York. He ate in top restaurants, drank the finest champagnes and, I was sure, could have dated any woman he set his sights on. But he wasn’t dating any woman, he was dating me — a pharmacy counter saleswoman from the dull old town of Brigg in North Lincolnshire. And, yes, I’d targeted him not just because he was attractive, but also because he had serious money. The simple fact is, I’d spent months changing my appearance, and even my accent, all so I would meet a rich man. And if that sounds shallow, then let me explain a little about my past. I come from a very humble background and left school with no qualifications. I married my boyfriend Steven, a mechanic, straight out of school and, aged 20, gave birth to our daughter Claudia. I worked in my local pharmacy, but I always felt I deserved a better life. Just like people who believe they have been born the wrong gender or in the wrong era, I felt like I’d been born into the wrong social class.  First, I decided to invest in elocution lessons. I spent £600 seeing a private tutor twice a week. After six months, it was virtually impossible to tell I had been born in the North. Secondly, I needed to know where rich people ate, and where they holidayed. I needed to educate myself. I read glossy magazines to find out about the best restaurants and the most luxurious resorts, and I got books from the library on etiquette. I didn’t want to use the wrong knife or pick up someone else’s bread roll by mistake. www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1352664/How-marry-millionaire-Shop-girl-Kim-reinvented-land-rich-husband.html#ixzz2rgqi32I3 |
