This is the luckiest of all signs, a person with this animal is very talented and articulate. Affectionate, yet sometimes shy, you seek harmony throughout your life. Marry a Sheep or Boar. Warning!! Stay away from the Cock. Bad news.

haha that's me.
 
Yes finally year of the Monkey. We rats were "fan tai shui" for two consecutive years, meaning our zodiac was prone to unlucky events.

According to this (Chinese)
Rats 1972, 1984
They should have a very good year in everything.

Even though this is the year of the monkey, the people with this zodiac is actually not going to have a good year according to the website.


Also, I am certain my home in Hong Kong doesn't have flat 4.

YOU are totally wrong. Only Japanese hates 4 because 4= die. Some buildings in China may have no 13th floor, but they definitely have 4th floor if they have more than four floors.

4 = die. No 4th floor in Chinese buildings, sorta like how there isnt 13th floor in buildings in US.

Uhh dude... I'm Taiwanese and I've been to China and Taiwan. Many buildings don't have 4th floors. I do speak mandarin and 4 does sound like Death, so does my last name. It's a joke in my family. I don't know where you're getting your information.

I think you need more friends....and if you are going all the way back to Taiwan, discount or not to get pictures done....that explains a whole lot.
