Very inspiring. I always thought the same, but not as early as now. Maybe in a few years time when the finance is better. For the children, I mean. Shahrin and I can just settle in a small pondok with some land. Maybe in Perak. But you know, make doa banyak2...we can always plan, but Allah plan as well. Sometimes deep in my heart I know that what I really want is those that i won't get. Allah will test me instead....Go for it Elisa...Akak will always want to share your experience...<br />May Allah help us all.almunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18301412586461794171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7458095.post-49445165836157836032011-02-02T21:07:36.458+03:002011-02-02T21:07:36.458+03:00Elisa,

Dah berapa kali I cakap, everyone has their own preferences and priorities, kan. Yours are just different from mine. There is no wrong or right ones (except those explicitly mentioned in Qur'an and Sunnah lah kan).<br />Whatever it is, you need to make your own retirement plan. The earlier you start lagi bagus, but it is never too late. Well, maybe 'too late' would be when you reach retirement age lah kan.. then it'll really be too late for a retirement plan. ha ha ha.<br />I am sure your husband already has one, even if it's just in his head.<br />Cuba tanya.<br />I am praying for the best for your family too!elisataufikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07902667406204808580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7458095.post-22819447522030957322011-01-27T00:18:13.543+03:002011-01-27T00:18:13.543+03:00salam kak lisa.
