Clockwatching

" Let’s keep talking anything to stop clock watching
Lately we’re running out of time.
aren’t we crazy for running all the time? M-M-M-M-Maybe
Let’s forget we’re running out of time. " - Jason Mraz

Count down to exams begin!

The thought of managing my money just crossed my mind. Was listening to Ms Lim talk abt it on the ride to her home. Interesting how one of my possible essay questions is about 'The Human & Social Development theories of Poverty".

Asset poverty: If you do not have sufficient net worth to sustain yourself above poverty level for 3 months, you're considered Asset Poor. Caner & Wolff (2004) highlighted that asset poverty was greatest during young adulthood (18 - 35 years old) but decreases as individuals reach 40s, 50s & 60s.

Name: Sarah Jane Tan
Age: 23
Working period: 1 year 11 months 3 days
Able to sustain self for 3 months: By God's grace, Yes. By world standards, No.
Asset Assessment: 65% Asset poor, 35% concerned about being asset poor. HA.

Random thoughts.
