What Does It Mean to Be Wealthy?
Distinguishing between “truly wealthy” and “pretending to be wealthy” is important. At minimum, one should meet the following two criteria to be considered “wealthy” — Andrew Hallam shares this view:
- Being able to choose not to work without worrying about making ends meet.
- Holding investments that guarantee lifetime earnings at twice the national median household income. (In 2020, Shanghai’s median household annual income was 240,000-600,000 RMB.)
iOS Workday Smart Alarm
iOS alarms have never supported automatic on/off based on China’s official public holidays. Today I came across a fully automated solution via Shortcuts on @scomper’s blog. It works by subscribing to a Chinese public holiday calendar combined with Shortcuts, or through an online API plus Shortcuts processing.

iPhone 12
The iPhone 12 is finally here — pre-orders open at 8 PM tomorrow. I’ve been using my iPhone 7 for four years, so it’s finally time for an upgrade. This time I won’t be buying through the official Apple Store. I’ll look into supplier channels or Pinduoduo instead — the price difference should be enough to cover installment fees.
Resume
I’ve been helping Teacher Wu revise his resume recently, which has also sparked the idea of updating my own. My past few job switches didn’t require a resume, so the current version still reflects my time as a designer. I can set aside some time this weekend to put together a product-focused resume and take stock of my years in product management along the way.
