“Selling” for 0% Profit!
Today I just found one way (though not so “good idea”) to have a 45-day loan with 0% interest……!
I got approx 800,000 rupiahs today, cash, in less than an hour, that I can return around end January.. it was very easy.
I was shopping with my friends (actually my Entreprenur University Kediri classmates), at Gramedia book store. I’m not really sure if I want to buy a book, but seeing my friends take up a few books, I decided to buy a book and ask them, “hey, why dont you help me. what if you pay to me, and I’ll pay all of our books using my BCA credit Card?” In short, he said alright. And I start “marketing” my scheme to the other friends. So they joined.
I Love Satan! ^)^
Menonton film The Secret secara “tidak sengaja” memberikan aku inspirasi baru dalam hidup. Keesokan harinya secara “tidak sengaja juga” mendengarkan berapa lagu terutama punya Samsons, semakin membuka pemahaman liarku tentang peran kejahatan, keburukan, dan keterpurukan dalam hidup manusia di dunia ini…
Lho, apa hubungannya?
Makanya, sabar dulu atuh…
Duplikasi warning sebelumnya: Posting ini mempunyai muatan filosofis yang lebih padat daripada posting harian gw. Dan warning yang lebih lagi adalah, gw jarang banget, ato bahkan mungkin belum pernah, menemukan orang yang bisa “mengepaskan” pemikiran gw dalam kerangka berpikir orang tersebut. Either you’ll be surprised, you’ll think I’m crazy, you’ll reject me outright because of my baseless interpretation, or you’ll simply have to break your old and dusty and inflexibly restrictive frame of reference first.
Beyond The Secret: Regresi Sebuah Simfoni
Film The Secret mengisahkan bagaimana semua kejadian kepada diri kita adalah hasil dari buah pikiran kita sendiri.* Film ini menjabarkan dengan caranya sendiri, tentang hukum alam universal bahwa semua yang terjadi, adalah “proses perpindahan energi”, di mana pikiran yang positif akan menarik hal-hal yang positif. Dan pikiran buruk akan membawa hal-hal yang buruk pula.
Film ini bisa dibilang cukup mewabah. Di-review di Oprah, Larry King, dan di mana-mana termasuk di Indonesia saya kira bakal heboh juga. Saya kira, The Secret bukanlah yang pertama dan terakhir. The Secret adalah bagian dari regresi sebuah simfoni.

Uncensored: My Personal Amazon.com Affiliate Report
It’s not so bad this month, I guess 
(I really hope Amazon has no forbidding policy in disclosing earnings to the public.)
I guess I should work harder $14 just in 17 days? Simply by posting Amazon links on a blog? Life is so easy.
I think one day I can really achieve financial freedom “without working.” Amiiiiiiennn.
Note: To give some perspective, most Indonesians working full-time get an average salary of 500-800 (US$60-90) thousand rupiahs per month. Skillful diplomas and bachelors may get up to 2-4 millions a month (US$250-450). Anything beyond that is definitely considered above the riches. That should give you a reason why $14 for half a month is a wonder considering the [minimal] amount of work needed.
Thanks to Trizle’s Andrew Trinh: The Accounting Game Book is Here!
It begins with a simple question to Andrew Trinh, founder of business consultancy firm Trizle: “Any good accounting book?” His response: The Accounting Game.
But then comes an uber-pleasant surprise: He sent me the book as a gift!
And the day had just come:
You shouldn’t have to ask if it’s “good,” as it’s easily one of the most entertaining (and useful) reads I’ve ever had.
Again, thank you, Andrew!
Note: I may sound biased, but if you have a business, I heartily recommend Trizle should you need any advice. Besides, they have a free business journal, so you can get loads of fabulous tips for your rocking business without paying a dime!

Financial Accounting Basics
I just asked for advice from Andrew Trinh of Trizle (a business consulting firm, if you haven’t heard–and a kickass one, if you ask me.) Here’s the reply, verbatim, so you could kick more asses than most guys do:
Hi Hendy,
Yes! The best accounting book I know is called “The Accounting Game”. It’s an amazing book that’s so easy and efficient to learn from.
I think the best accounting software (is this for personal finances) is anything from Intuit ( e.g. Quickbooks, Quicken, etc.)
I wrote this way back: http://www.trizle.com/how-to-read-a-financial-statement/, but you can learn a lot more by Googling for accounting info as well.
Ruby on Rails E-Commerce Book from Apress
Sometime ago I got this Ruby on Rails book from Apress. I reviewed it.
It’s gone from me now. For a very good reason. And I’m really, really happy about it.
