Hi Velox,

I have asked a friend (Geoff) if he was willing to help you. And he said that he was more than willing.

Geoff lives close to Sydney Uni.

Geoff did win the University Medal for Asian Studies at ANU.

Geoff has lived in & travels often to China & Asia in general.

Geoff does business quite regularly with the Chinese both in person & over the internet.

Geoff has been part of some of the world record Base-Jumping efforts. The Chinese & Russians (I believe) are mad on base jumping.

Please contact Geoff at oujie13@gmail.com

Good luck Velox in your future.

Beware I may or may not have a financial interest in this referral.
Will you let that thought affect your decision to investigate my friend further?

 

[velox]

Thanks for the advice, but no thanks for your stupid comment.

Do you know what he charges?

 

[Robert1961]

I have given you Geoff's email address.

The ball is in your court.

So ask him yourself.

Sorry I was joking about the arts bit. I wouldn't bother with the arts degree. You are going to be studying for 10+ years for med, why bother studying another year.

 

[ViRtUaL]

so youre not doing arts? why u learning mando then?
yeh i dunno i might not do the arts, coz the workload would get pretty intense as well. i might give it a shot and then if i cant handle it i'll drop it. i'm only considering doing it out of interest for the things i mentioned. i wanna formulate my own political ideology (LOL kaivanism ). i wish.

 

[velox]

cmon there has to be a mandarin tutor somewhere.

 

[Robert1961]

I can lead a horse to water.
But I cannot make him drink.

So much for me just trying to help.

Geoff had offered other ways to help you too, which I did not mention. Since, I did not want to do all the work for you. I wanted to put you in a position to help yourself.

Geoff is a very decent & special person. If you ever get to meet Geoff you will understand why.

I know that either Geoff can help you himself, & if he can't, he will be honest with you, & direct you to someone who can.

In the future, when you make your fortune, through many years of profit - you may come to understand that, while the profit motif is not perfect, it can be good. Maybe even a win-win.

Good luck Velox.
