Fred said: is saving $30,000 per month wasting your life?

No, Fred it isn't. Wasting your life is doing a job you don't like in a place you don't like with people you don't like. That is wasting your life. You'll have been doing this for what ten plus years? What percentage of your life span at that point and of your total life then will have been spent in this indentured servitude? Although to be quite honest I doubt you were much use before you started this.

Not quite. I studied.

I like how you don't even try to defend your life now but revert back to your student days as a haven before the sellout.

I've said it before about people like Mr. Frederick here and I'll say it again (although by posting this, I'm breaking my own advice)...

Ignore him. Of course, at times it may be necessary to set the record straight, but beyond that, just ignore him.

He's not worth the time or energy to engage.

People like him never change and never go away, so let him live how he wishes and just ignore him.

I think this thread started by someone asking about the Korean Int'l School, so perhaps it ought to go back to that topic.

If you guys really want to dissect Mr. Unbelievable, just start another thread about that topic- I'm sure Frederick will revel in the attention and the rest of us can continue to ignore him.

Cheers,
ryuro

Ryuro, why are you breaking your policy just for me. Did I get under your skin?

I will start a Freddie Poll!

'Hong Konger', it is 5:10. Sorry if it does not match your version; but as you will understand, there are after all many various translations available. I can neither claim to be overly religious nor particularly well versed in the art of translation.

I was (roughly, and 'from the cuff') translating from my Afrikaans-language (Dutch Reformed Church) version. No offence intended. I simply chose not to express it in an older form of English. The underlying semantic messages are cognitively synonymous anyway.
