Cook at your own risk

What would you do if you have RM100, 000 (or SGD42, 000) during recession like this? FD? Keep the money under your pillow? Buy a property? Blue chips? Or something else? If you have no clue, one great Singapore civil servant proposed an interesting idea how to spend that money. Please read following:

This so-called breaking news created many discussions and criticisms that struck against the civil servant of being "sensitivity and ill-judged."

Somehow, I must agree that way of spending money belongs to "his/her own business". However, when someone is trying harder to mitigate the downturn, personally don't think this article should come into public, It's just like when you are purposely tell your peers who got retrenched that you have just quit your job during recession.

Besides paying a high price to learn how to cook a French cuisine, he should know the how much price he should be paying when writing this article. Spend the time meaningfully? Go join a charity.
