Cigar DD, give you my fair and hearty opinion, I like your writing and wish to read more 73]8NVm
of it. Because of this, the least thing for me to see is the broken relationship between F+GX{e
7E\
you and your MM. One thing I can be sure is that you won't live in poverty for long.

As long as you have the motivation to improve your financial situation, you will be able "*t0

to achieve your financial goal eventually. FZW`ADq]

The "Rich dad, Poor dad" serial of books are good to read. There is one main idea I [& Z-
*a
agree the most "Don't say you can't afford it, ask yourself how you can afford it." IuT)?S7O*k

One thing I don't understand and wish you can think it again, why you insist selling the 1Y&W>p
house your MM purchased? Do you know there are thousands of foreign investors .k-6LR
each year from all of the world especially the USA to invest in China's real estate? ; o

And the RMB is still in appreciation, the trend will go on for a while. Keep the property `U b*rOMu
for long term investment is not a bad idea. U[|5:qWs

If you are not happy that the house is under your MM's Mom's name, you can try to gL-kI*Ra
persuade your MM to add her name on it, so the house will be indirectly owned by you l

as well after your marriage. As to the request that you pay off the mortgage for that Q"B8l[
house, if you have that much money, you just don't feel comfortable to pay it at once @HiGc^X(
how about asking your MM to open a joint account in both of you/MM's names and Kc95yt
deposit the money into it? By doing this, you can show your highest sincerity to MM IC5QH<.$C
and extend the solid proof that you are not out of money. You can earn the interest \|9B:y'y
and when the RMB appreciates to a certain level, you can either sell the house or 'l=>H#}<B
close the joint account and exchange the money back to whatever currency at that nGe4IY\-w
time. (Sigapore dollar or Hong Kong dollar or USA dollar) J

Anyway, keep your relationship with your MM, I don't think you should explore too 6T|Z4f|
much on why her family ask this or ask that, honestly ask yourself, if you love her or lVQE}gd%m
not. And DO keep on your writing, you have the talent.
