Hi, my real name is Hansen

Residing in sunny Singapore where the food is great, weather is either too hot or too wet, where the worst drivers in the world are found and cars prices so high that car owners feel they own the road.

    Singapore jokes....

    This will leave foreigner scratching their heads in wonder but I don't care!
    In Singapore, living in Highly Dangerous Buildings (HDB), people have already got used to Paying and Paying. In fact, you don’t just pay, you Pay Unit Bankrupt (PUB). If that’s not enough, somebody still Purposely Want to Dig (PWD) from you. What can you do if you are in a Money Oriented Environment (MOE).

    With the current Mad Accounting System (MAS), you are forced to Pay the Sum Ahead (PSA) which make some people Permanently Owe Some Banks (POSB) and live on Loan Technique Always (LTA). When you are sick, you might be able to use your Cash Prior to Funeral (CPF) fund, if you happen to be admitted to the Money Operated Hospital (MOH) on time.

    If you are out of luck, you may meet doctors who Never Use Heart (NUH) to treat you and you would be Sure to Give-up Hope (SGH). When that happens, Call Home (CH), you deserve a better place to recuperate. To help to ease the traffic, motorists have to pay Cash On Expressways (COE). If that doesn't help, the Lousy Tax Accounting (LTA) can always Effectively Raise Prices (ERP). If you don’t own a car, you can always go for the Mad Rush to Train (MRT) and get squashed Side by Side (SBS).

    Under all these pressures, there is not many places we can go to relax not even the good old place we used to go to because it has become So Expensive Nothing To See Actually (SENTOSA)


    The Moneytree Authority of Singapore (MAS) launched a brand new Singapore Dollar bill, which has been named the "Peanut Series". Each peanut series bill is legal tender equivalent to 600,000 Singapore Dollars, henceforth known as 1 Peanut.

    The CEOs across the Republic have been quick to applaud the launch of the 1 Peanut bill. In an interview with a Mr. Durai, a CEO of a philanthropic organisation, who wished to remain anonymous, he said, "Now I don't have to carry suitcases of money home. Prior to the issuing of the Peanut, I had to carry a whole suitcase of small change home every month. This is because the people who paid me tend to do so in small amounts, like $5 dollars each time, and it can be very irritating. Now I am just paid 1 Peanut with a single bill, slip it quickly into my wallet and off I go. It's very convenient!"

    The reaction by the general public was however cool. Most said that it is unlikely that they will ever use a 1 Peanut bill. With a average national income of S$3000 (0.005 Peanut), the average Singaporean will need about 2 lifetimes to save a Peanut. Said a Mr. Tan, who is a plumber, "The other day, I installed a golden tap in some CEO's bathroom and he paid me using 1 Peanut for the $1000 golden tap. I tell him where got enough change?

    Watch out for the newest security features on the 1 Peanut note, including a new watermark which replaces the traditional lion head. The new watermark can only be seen under an intense bright light and close scrutiny because of its extreme lack of transparency.

    According to MAS spokesman, the added security features are extremely important given that 1 Peanut can probably buy three 4-room HDB flats, or 10 Nissan Sunnies, the average Singaporean will be very tempted to lay their hands on a Peanut.
