Guess what…. I have just submitted my resignation letter last week. Yes, it is not a joke…. I am going to resign from Nokia.

It has been a long journey for me at Nokia. I started working at their R&D site in Bochum, Germany 5 years ago. I took for a couple of months “pause” before re-joined Nokia at their R&D site in Vancouver, Canada almost 3 years ago.

Personally, I think Nokia is a good company. It is one of the most innovative companies in the world. Unfortunately, after a couple of years working for the same company, I feel that it’s time to move on. I need new challenges, “fresh air” and new experiences.

What am I going to do after this era? I was thinking to work as a full-time trader. Unfortunately, I am not ready yet. I need more time learning how to handle stock market downturn; like the one that has just happened recently. That’s why; I will still be working in the high-tech industry.

Ok. Here is the deal… yesterday (April 1, 2008), I wrote a posting “Moving to New York“. I said that I just bought a 2-bed room apartment at Trump Tower worth more than US $6 million. It was actually April Fool!

Here is the fact…. I am still living in Vancouver, struggling from paycheck to paycheck… still wondering when I can retire and become a full-time trader.

After making a lot of profit in the stock market recently, I and my wife decided to buy a 2-bed room apartment at Trump Tower at Fifth Avenue Manhattan. Next week, we will be moving to New York.

Bye bye Vancouver and see you in 2010 during winter olympic….
