My beloved friends,

Shanshine’s M&Ms of playfulness was unanimously an award-winning inspirational! In my next talk on Shanshine’s ka-ching! and Ha ha ha!!!, ka-ching! is the sound of money, and Ha ha ha!!!, the sound of happiness! In this affluent consumer age, is money really the ultimate determinant of happiness? Can we create happiness with or without money? I will address these questions and share the secret of having BOTH money and happiness!

I invite you to the seventh of my Positive Psychology series tomorrow afternoon in Singapore. Details as follows:

• Topic: Shanshine’s ka-ching! and Ha ha ha!!!
• Venue: Grassroots Toastmasters Club, Grassroots Club, Singapore
• Date: 3 May 2008
• Time: 2-5pm

I look forward to seeing you there!

With love,
Pei Shan
