Ninety Cents A Day

I promise to invest ninety cents every weekday, or four dollars fifty cents every week, or eighteen dollars every month, on a copy of The Straits Times. I haven't been reading the newspaper for a long while and its high time I buckle down and get to doing it. I've been procrastinating for too long and I've been wasting too much time. Reading is a good habit and it doesn't matter if I don't read the newspaper from cover to cover; at least I'm making a concerted effort to keep abreast with daily news from around the globe. I think eighteen dollars a month is a small price to pay for the many benefits I will invariably gain from reading the papers regularly. 
I wonder why my office doesn't offer free copies of the newspaper though...
