Ceritanya lagi mau belajar main saham, jadi dari awal Agustus kemaren, ikutan sharemarket game – jadi kita dikasih $50000 virtual money, terus bisa di-mainin di ASX sharemarket. Prinsipnya mirip kaya main saham beneran, tetep harus bayar broker fee & data-nya juga real. Pas pertama2, sempet dapet profit $500-an… Tapi profitnya juga virtual… ^^
Nah akhir2 ini, sempet panik karena kondisi Wall Street yg ga menentu, ditambah bangkrutnya satu company besar di sana… Langsung saham2 yg aku pegang, jatuh semua. Sempet stress pas ngeliat chart-nya yg notabene, semuanya merah…
Pas tadi pagi bangun, lagi bikin breakfast french toast – trus nyalain TV. Shock waktu denger kl senate di Amrik sana ga menyetujui bailout bill… Kemaren kan mereka udah ada tanda2 u/ setuju! Aku langsung nebak kl saham2ku bakalan anjlok lagi…. Dan bener aja, pas jam 10.15an liat chart-nya, rugi banyak… Hix..hix… Jadi skr lagi agak2 stress lagi, biarpun ini virtual trading & cuman game doank, tp aku bener2 anggep ini serius. Kerasanya kaya bener2 kehilangan uang beneran.. 
Ternyata, kita ga bisa menebak global economy. Bisa tiba2 aja jatuh, meskipun secara logisnya, dari bulan Maret kemaren tuh udah keliatan bakalan bisa seperti hari ini, tapi tetep aja ga nyangka satu company besar bisa bangkrut. Bener2 dari kejadian ini, cuman Tuhan aja satu2nya pengharapan kita.
Nah sekarang, daripada stress, mendingan bantuin hubby bikin assignment-nya dia aja deh… Hihi.. Biarpun tetep aja berhubungan ama finance…

“Thoughts of you come drifting back
Within this heart of mine
I take a trip to yesterday
Another day in time.
A time when I was growing up
And you were always there
Put to the test, you did your best
You handled things with care.
For holding out, not giving in
When others got their way
For saying no, my strength did grow
I thank you dad, today.
To you, I owe so many thanks
For teaching right from wrong
For many lectures you bestowed
I sing a different song.
I thank you for the sacrifice
Of working everyday
For all you’ve given in this life
I’m thanking you today.
I thank you for your faith so strong
For many days in church
For leading me to Jesus Christ
I did not have to search.
For all I am, I owe to you
You surely led the way
So many lessons learned in life
I thank you dad, today.”
Poem by Marilyn Ferguson
