Cigar DD, give you my fair and hearty opinion, I like your writing and wish to read more d&[.=M\E8
of it. Because of this, the least thing for me to see is the broken relationship between w`F4.e
you and your MM. One thing I can be sure is that you won't live in poverty for long. SSG}'W!z
As long as you have the motivation to improve your financial situation, you will be able mtu`m6Xix
to achieve your financial goal eventually. Bi|XdS$G

The "Rich dad, Poor dad" serial of books are good to read. There is one main idea I %b(non*
agree the most "Don't say you can't afford it, ask yourself how you can afford it." b|z_1j6U
@Zd/>'
One thing I don't understand and wish you can think it again, why you insist selling the p?+*R@O
house your MM purchased? Do you know there are thousands of foreign investors ILq"/S.
each year from all of the world especially the USA to invest in China's real estate? CkA

And the RMB is still in appreciation, the trend will go on for a while. Keep the property

for long term investment is not a bad idea. YJEL'k<l

If you are not happy that the house is under your MM's Mom's name, you can try to En]+mIEo
persuade your MM to add her name on it, so the house will be indirectly owned by you I%fz^:[#<
as well after your marriage. As to the request that you pay off the mortgage for that YQk<1./}I
house, if you have that much money, you just don't feel comfortable to pay it at once X1{U''$

how about asking your MM to open a joint account in both of you/MM's names and ^9PB+mz
deposit the money into it? By doing this, you can show your highest sincerity to MM ??.9`3CYo
and extend the solid proof that you are not out of money. You can earn the interest 2V 9vS
and when the RMB appreciates to a certain level, you can either sell the house or Ib665H7w
close the joint account and exchange the money back to whatever currency at that tlz)V1L
time. (Sigapore dollar or Hong Kong dollar or USA dollar) sVJwe\!

Anyway, keep your relationship with your MM, I don't think you should explore too WQT;k0;T]
much on why her family ask this or ask that, honestly ask yourself, if you love her or d

not. And DO keep on your writing, you have the talent.
