Being a company director for more than 5 years and then going out to seek employment was not easy. However, many uncles and family friends were willing to give me chances.Nevertheless, after 3 solid years of working like a coolie including in one rubbish collection company, I called it quit and decided to go into investment instead.
However, the fire in me never die. It was 3 solid years of hell then. As I was unemployed for that long. Every now and then, my smart alecs cousins reported how much they earned as a CLEVER salaried professional. Some as high as S$30,000 a month. It was a strong and hard knock into my pride and ego as my beloved grandmother also began to doubt my ability and character. She told me that one should be gainly employed and not to laze around doing nothing for society.
I told her and reassured her, that Heaven made me a special person different from the rest. Heaven gave me a third eye.
After 3 years of good insults, the tide all turned at the end of it when I finally used the seed money of S$500,000 birthdday gift given by my grandmother when I was 19 years old and turned it into S$2,000,000 in a mere 2 years by property investment.
By then, one of my cousins noticed my car getting smaller ( from a Merc to a Ferrari ) and was very interested in my venture. I told him he can try to buy a private condo. That was in 2000 when the market dipped. He never did, although he was a CEO of a company.
8 years later in 2007, he asked me again. I told him to buy a private condo again. He told me he would not pay more than S$1000psf for a lousy Singapore property. By then, I have my own property company. So, he missed it again.
The rest I think you know what happened.
WOAHAHAHAHHAHHAHHHEHEHHEHEH
Hard to believe that a CEO of a company does not own a PC since he is earning a few hundred grand a year? Unless he got a few GCB already 
When you have eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth
