In the year 2022, we intend to send T1 to boarding school in England so she can take her IB or A-Levels (though, probably IB even though I did the A-Levels) and that gives us exactly 10 years more or less, to start saving up money for that purpose. The fees right now are equivalent to University fees when I was in the UK, which was about 15 thousand pounds then. But when the time comes, I won’t be surprised that it goes up to a total of 40 thousand pounds which is really what we should be budgeting for, inclusive of school fees and boarding.
It’s really not cheap having kids, huh? But I think a good education is so important and if all goes well, we would really like our girls to attend Preparatory School in England because it will give them a solid international education and open their eyes to the world. Of course, I shall accompany them there. Do you think I’d leave them to their devices? After what I went through as a student? No, we live and learn. I’ll be there to be their best friend, chef and agony aunt; shopping partner and disciplinarian. Perhaps we should move to the UK instead of down south!
Now, the question is, how do we save up RM2 million purely for the higher education of both our girls??? We have 10-15 years to do this, do you think it is possible if we were starting from scratch? I absolutely do! No more shopping!!!
**************************************************************************Who is Mamapumpkin?
Mamapumpkin spent 7 years in London committing crimes to gain her Bartlett degree in Architecture. She then spent 7 years as a Stay At Home Mom raising her children as documented in this blog of over 15 years thereafter returning to the Corporate World stronger than ever as the Country Director of a British Multinational. She sets out to prove to all, that you can have anything and everything that you want; if you have that fire of desire burning within and the drive to work hard. Even better with much love.
Mamapumpkin has not only grown corporate businesses successfully in the past but has grown not one but TWO network marketing businesses in the notorious MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) industry, achieving success in under 2 years. She believes in the MLM business model but realises the DRASTIC PITFALLS and great stigma attached to it, understanding EXACTLY WHY the majority would shy away (or RUN for their lives) from ANY MLM business. But open your eyes and take time to understand it intellectually, remove your hang-ups, confirm your research, and you may just want to seize an opportunity. She did. And no, she never went about chasing people for sales. She had a sophisticated system work for her through technology and a smartphone.
She now impacts lives authentically with proven strategies amassed through the last decade of her own transformation offering online coaching programmes and always supports the underprivileged. She believes that we can all have a life of our own desires to enable real contribution into the world. But first, one needs to understand what this all means.
A beautiful life without limits.
If you wish to learn some tools to propel your life forward guaranteed, be brave enough to make contact as her life's purpose is to build people. She operates through a discovery call after which she will commit to helping you. Or not.
Most lose out on an opportunity because they are afraid they would be sold to, conned or whatever fear resides in their brain without even trying. And that's on them.
Mamapumpkin is a living testimony that women really can have a lot. Being financially and time free has enabled her to travel the world anytime, anywhere, doing anything, and she spends most of her days with her children, having fun, and supporting others wherever she can. Also having fun.


May be by then we both can be yummy mummies to our girls….. and while the girls at school, we can have our coffee mornings, shopping afternoons, etc etc….. ;P
Boarding schools are 25 thousand pounds per annum these days….
And most likely, my boys will do IB instead of A-levels too…
She will get a scholarship!
Or she can go to K TuankuJaafar or Eton in Cyberjaya.
