Patrick's Diary - 12/2/2015

Coming back home tired everyday, I had fallen into sleep until 10 minutes earlier. However, I plan to wrap up my diary before midnight, then I can go back to sleep and go to gym to work out at 5:00 am. 

Several dramatic things happened from yesterday to the end of today. MZ's wife gave a birth to a new baby girl and MZ is going to donate 99% of FB's stocks to charity over the course of his lifetime. I expect to make a million bucks on FB stocks by 59 1/2 years old. 
Two suspects shot 14 people and wounded another 17 in San Bernardino, CA and were killed by police. Obviously, it's related to terrorism but whether this triggered by this couple's own personal problems or was related to organizational scheme hasn't been ruled out. 
Ok, we have to wait for another two days for the weekend. Great, I am going to get my biweekly paycheck tomorrow and pay the balance of credit card off for last billing cycle. I managed to pay off the huge balance of my credit card driven by travel expenses for our trip in Scandinavia in summer and my son's dorm charges as well as dining plan for Autumn Quarter on time. In addition, I also managed to pay property taxes on both houses. The only thing I paid through savings reserved for my son's college expenses was his tuition for Autumn Quarter, which was in my plan. From November, I have started saving monthly rents on my rental townhouse for my son's new car to be purchased in July, 2016. If this can be executed as planned, by then, I will have 10,000 dollars extra. Of course, I won't borrow car loan for his car. So, in the next 8 months, I will be very careful with my budget. However, I won't cut expenses on daily necessitates.
