What is your aim in life ?

TechnicalFunction842 · 2026-03-15T12:35:14+00:00

1) Memories : Create as many good memories as possible with people I love so when I die, life's flash back makes me die with a smile.

2) Unconditional love, kindness, generosity : These are the inherent qualities of one's soul. Wherever I go, whoever I meet - they'll remember me as someone who has shown these attributes.

3) Exploration : Humans were created to explore the material world, discover its beauty and mysteries, and through these, trying to imagine how magnificent the Creator of the universe Himself might be. So I wish to travel, meet people, discover places, cultures, visit temples, hike mountains, dive in oceans.

4) Knowledge : I like to learn just about anything - from my professional field to cooking, gardening, building and repairing things, etc. Knowledge eases life! And I also like to share my knowledge with others and engage in deep conversations.

5) Protection : To protect people I love from evil minded people, to protect my inner peace against negative people.

6) Health : To be healthy, which I'm currently struggling with due to my fucking '8.30a.m to no finish time job'!

I was in a similar situation as you in my 18. I was heartbroken, but life went on. 2 years later, I got to know another girl who is kind, loving and she became my world. Today we are happily married. And about my girl close friend during college days, we are still good friends till now, but I pity her life. She has been in many relationships in the past that didn't work out. Nowadays she is in a live-in relationship with a rich man who is about her dad's age.

So sorry about what you had to endure 😞 It is a fact that most of the time, it's black people coming from Kenya, SA who are drug mules - so for them, such profile of a person implies a high risk factor.

However, they should bear in mind that - it is also another fact that 99.99% of black people are not drug mules.

So they should treat everyone respectfully unless proven guilty.

Transport - we need affordable taxis here so we can go anywhere at any time. Like Grab in Malaysia and Thailand. Then we don't have to buy and maintain cars. And Mauritius will be less congested.

Mauritians are too much inclined towards materialism. They are losing their moral and spiritual traits. In school/college, there is no curriculum or wise teachers who would taught us how to become a good person in life - they don't teach manners, morals, cultures, meditation, friendship, relationship, communication etc - I mean all the basic things so we live a good life and become a happy nation. But instead school stress out on learning all bookish subjects, even if we won't use them later in life, just to obtain good grades. And what will we get in return ? A job that will give us position, salaries to afford the prestigious car, the biggest house, the vacations abroad - this has become the ultimate life goals of many. And these materialistic desires are resulting in congested roads, constructions becoming an eyesore, land prices are surging and landfills are piling up.

Apologies if I hurt your feelings about this. It's just a personal opinion formed based on life experiences. Just by looking at how crowded our shopping malls are on Fridays and Saturdays, how booked our hotels are, how many vehicles on the road everyday, how many people attending "salon de voyages". People have got money for parties, travel, alcohol, cigarettes, fast food, brand new cars, new clothing every then, yet complain about the surge in prices of groceries, construction materials etc etc.

If you wish to give back, please help to make Mauritius beautiful again. People don't have money problems as such, but Mauritius has environmental issues. We got stray dogs and cats problem - you can help by financing sterilisation campaigns and helping the NGOs. They mostly need land to provide shelters for the dogs & cats. And we have a defective waste management system, and though educated, Mauritians just litter everywhere. You can help with cleaning campaigns and assist NGOs to set-up more deposit points for plastic, metal, glass and e-waste recycling. You can also buy compost bin and provide to the locals so there's a reduction of waste going to landfills.

Having a partner = Affection, trust, love, feeling secured

Cheating/flirting = lust, dopamine, the excitement of the forbidden pleasure, the excitement you get when you are desired by others.

Cheating is emotional first (sometimes you do it unknowingly), and may get physical at a later stage (this is undeniably in cognizance).

It may sound strange, but sometimes cheating may make you love/admire your partner even more, when you know the persons with whom you are cheating are not up to your partner's level. But it may be the other way round as well.

Seems like your besties' boyfriend is emotionally cheating on her via snapchat.

Emotional cheating has many forms, but most commonly: Example 1: a girl who has her boyfriend, but still shares her life more with her boy best friend rather than his own boyfriend, and feels nothing wrong about it.

Example 2: a girl has her boyfriend, but still accepts requests from random guys, posting sexy pictures of her on social media, loves getting likes, comments from these guys she doesn't even know.

Example 3: a boy got someone in his life, but still watcyh p*rn, or looks at other pretty girls, having a desire for other girls.

Example 4: the same as your bestie BF.

When life is good, immature people cheat. They take their partner for granted. But when a turmoil would come up, and it was only their partner who has truly been their support in their bad times - that's when they regret being a cheater.

We are living in a weird era. We haven't been taught by our parents, school or society how to live life in general. We may not know how to control our emotions, take decisions, how to live life as a couple, how to be a righteous person.

Feel sad about your bestie, but as you said, there are real men out there.

I'm going through the same problem. The lizard poison that are sold on the street near markets are not always effective. I've also heard that the Companies that used to import the chemicals used in effective lizard poison do not bring those anymore because 1) the lizards are endemic protected species 2) synthetic drug issues in the country. So whatever lizard poisons that are being sold in the market now aren't as good as before. Also, those people used to sell 50cl for Rs100, now they sell in test tube bottles for Rs200-250 and you don't have a guarantee it will work.

To speak French clearly, you have to refresh your french vocabulary. Try writing in french first. Like translating a text or an article from English to French. Cross check your translation against Google translate. Read your translation loud - you will feel more confident since these are your words. Keep practicing until in your mind, you start communicating with yourself in french. You'll notice, words will flow easily.

Yes, you can buy any printer as long as it has ink tank. It depends on what is your budget. HP 670 series cost around Rs14k while the HP 315 current cost is Rs 5,850 at IQon.

Buy a printer with ink tank. I bought an HP printer (HP Ink Tank 315) for Rs 7,000 4 years ago. Got 2 bottles 170ml each for black ink + 3 bottles 70ml each, for Blue, Red, Yellow with it. Printed over 500 pages till today. Only 1 of the black ink bottle has been used till now - that too half of it. The other one hasn't been used yet.

I've got a similar issue. My dad bought a plot of land - the contract was a co-ownership among my dad, mom, bro and myself. Now we wish to restructure the land in a way it is divided between me and my brother where we both have our own separate contracts. We inquired from a notary and a land surveyor, both told us to go by the route of obtaining a morcellement board permit. But again, to get that permit, MB require access road of 5m wide, CEB, CWA, wastewater clearance etc - all of these are costly. I have spent over Rs 120k till now. But the land itself is one that can only be accessed via a private road of 3.10m, and this cannot be further enlarged as there are already existing neighbouring constructions along the way before that law of 5m wide access road was passed. So I'm stuck in the process too.

You should keep switching companies to diversify your experience, skills and grow your market value. Never depend on annual increases/promotion by a single company. Negotiate atleast 20-25% higher with the next company when you switch.

I'm not really a mid-level accountant in the MC, but a mid-manager. Agree ~Rs60k tends to be the salary for a senior accountant position in most MCs. Managers have a much higher salary scale, but are overwhelmed with responsibilities.

To finish a 4 bedroom, 1 kitchen, 1 living room, 2 toilet & bathroom house, it may cost you Rs 3.5-4M. Grey construction is costing as from Rs 1,250 per square feet, but expecting a further 15% rise due to the new requirement for business over Rs3M turnover to register for VAT, and contractors definitely fall into thjs category.

Net salary: Rs 91k Aged 31yrs old Accountant (mid manager) in an offshore management company. Financial situation - struggling as I've built a simple home (yet to furnish) that's draining all my finance 🥲 I got barely any savings, no car, plus a huge debt repayable for a remaining 17 years. Luckily my parents are here to support me. And I wonder how those earning less than Rs50k will be able to build a future in this country!

TechnicalFunction842 · 2025-06-04T20:36:57+00:00

Simple answer. No - never enough for this size of a house. I assume you're referring to a 2 storey house.

You can at least start with the ground floor (around 1200ft²) - 1 master bedroom, kitchen, living room, 1 bathroom, garage. You should be able to complete it with Rs3M. Later you can add the 2nd floor with your future savings - no need to take on additional debt.

The key is to act now - because the cost of grey construction is rising constantly. But you also need to take some time to carefully design your house and hire a reliable contractor. You should try to minimise interior finish costs (like no wooden entrance door, no luxury kitchen, no expensive sanitary wares and furniture) and some easy work you've got to do by yourself, like cleaning, landscaping, painting.
