When it comes to money or finance, information or knowledge is powerful. We make decisions about our personal finance based on what knowledge or information we possess. Information does not come freely to us and most of the time, we have to do our own research and studies either to enhance what we already know or to learn something totally new.
Luckily for us in this Information Age, there are many people willing to make the effort and share their knowledge, experience and opinion about money or finance through blogging. There are many blogs to choose from and depending on one’s preference, several will become personal favorites. I checked a Malaysian web directory,blogmalaysia.com to see how many blogs there are dealing with finance and found 67 blogs listed (as of writing) under the heading “Economy & Finance.” Another directory you can check is allmalaysia.info, search “finance” or “personal finance.” There are quite a number of blogs listed either in English or Bahasa Melayu. However, I did find some blogs that are no longer active.
Out of the many blogs easily accessible, I have picked out several as listed below (in no particular order) which I find interesting and informative for my own reading (in addition to KCLau). It all depends on what information you wish to learn and then choose the blogs you want to focus on.

All these blogs provide endless reading material for me and there are many more great blogs out there providing useful information about money or finance. All you need to do is find the time to research, then learn and benefit from them. The people behind the blogs deserve to be acknowledged for working hard to provide the rest of us with useful contents that would certainly boost a person’s financial knowledge.
Which blogs do you find useful and meet your preference? What information do you wish to learn about the most?

Trekking in Nepal…Family Adventure style
ReplyDeleteThe towering Himalayas are, to many travellers’ minds, the chief reason for visiting
Nepal. The country tumbles steeply down from the 800km stretch of the Himalayan
battlements that forms its northern border, and can claim no fewer than eight of the
world’s ten highest peaks – including, of course, Everest, the highest of them all. The
mountains are more than just physically astonishing, however. The cultures of highland-
dwelling Nepalese peoples are rich and fascinating, and the relaxed, companionable spirit
of trekking life is an attraction in itself. The Himalayas have long exerted a powerful
spiritual pull, too. In Hindu mythology, the mountains are where gods go to contemplate,
while the Sherpas and other mountain peoples hold certain peaks to be the very embodiment
of deities.
Most visitors to mountain areas stick to a few well-established trekking routes. They have
good reasons for doing so: the classic trails of the Everest region with its famous trails
like Everest Base
camp trek and the 3 high passes are both mind blowing ventures and highly popular in
the world. And Annapurna regions are so popular because they offer close-up views of the
very highest peaks; this includes Annapurna 1 & 2, fishtail peak and Ganesh Himal trek.
Famous treks like the Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek, Annapurna Base
camp trek & the Annapurna Circuit trek are some of the most famous on earth. Dramatic
scenery and fascinating local cultures are most known in this area. Lodges on the main
trails – some as sophisticated as ski chalets, these days – make it possible to go without
carrying a lot of gear or learning Nepali, and without spending too much money, either.
While trekking, you’ll likely eat and sleep for $20–30 a day. For those who put a high
priority on getting away from it all, there are plenty of less-developed routes, of
course, and simply going out of season or taking a side-route off the main trail makes a
huge difference.
The Helambu and Langtang regions are less striking but conveniently close to Kathmandu,
attracting a little fewer than ten percent of trekkers. The Langtang valley
trek & the Ganja-La pass are known trails in this area. This leaves vast areas of
eastern and far western Nepal relatively untrodden by visitors. To hike in these areas
you’ll need either to get set for camping and carry your own supplies, and live like a
local, or pay to join an organized trek with tents and accept the compromises that go
along with that.
With a good operator, you can anywhere in the wild. A Great Himalayan Trail now runs the
length of highland Nepal – though it will be for some time, if ever, before such a route
will be serviced by lodges.
Treks in remote far eastern and far western Nepal are mostly restricted to two kinds of
globe trotters, both adventurous in their own way. The majority come on organized camping
treks with agencies – in fact, this is obligatory for those areas that require a permit.
The minority are independent trekkers prepared either to carry tents and food or negotiate
with porters, or to seek food and lodging in local homes and basic lodges. Some great
camping outdoors include the Manaslu circuit Trek, Upper Mustang trek
the Dhaulagiri circuit, Rara lake trek and the great Kangchenjunga trek, both north and
south.
