Who Is Vincent Rich?

Vincent Liaw (廖泓智) is 26 years old, currently living on the tiny island of Singapore but will be moving out of Singapore in 2009. He is “unemployable by choice” and absolutely proud it. After serving his compulsory military service (from June 2002 to October 2004) in the Singapore Armed Forces and a string of unhappy jobs, Vincent made a promise to himself to become free of JOBs to create a life of his dreams no matter how hard it takes.

In his free time, Vincent enjoys reading, writing, watching movies, playing with his cat, building Web sites, swimming, running, listening to his favourite band Oasis and other relaxing activities.

Vincent has been obsessed with Web development since he was 17. He firmly believes that the Internet is the best thing since sliced bread. He continually searches for ways to leverage on the Internet to make money, build communities online, have fun, make friends and a lot more!

Vincent enjoys reading and learning about the latest trends on the Internet. He is constantly reading about topics like XHMTL/CSS, PHP, MySQL, blogging, social networks, Google AdSense, banner advertising, affiliate program marketing, Ubuntu Server, Linux, XAMPP and search engine optimization. Therefore you will see stuff like that posted randomly on this web site.

Vincent understands that he can be a bit blunt and irritating at times but most of the time he’s nice.
