tbh i think i am probably below normal for sinkie's standard...

i dun really envy ppl's achievements now and red eye alrd, pass that stage... now i just hope my life can soon soon calm calm until i uplorry...

I started giving tuition for my own pocket money at Secondary 2. Supported myself through university and now at 40 I have a family and financial means to retire by 50.

None of this is a result of any inheritance from family or any connections from any relatives.

I do this because I want to change what is wrong from my previous generation.
There is nothing to be envious about living off other's achievements, even if it is own parents.

There is also nothing to be proud about achieving it on your own. This is not a sustainable motivation.

It is a destructive mindset. For those children who genuinely wants to achieve on their own will also be seen as succeeding due to their parents effort. Its nothing glamorous or to be jealous about.

There is also no need to impress anyone who have no bearing on your live whatsoever. This is low achiever mindset.

Jelly already then what? You jelly them, they Don’t even know you exist. They enjoy the fruits of their parents or grandparents labour. So your life is to make it rich so that your next generations can do the same. There must a starting point somehow

I know some, after graduate from University of the Pacific in Hawaii, come back to Singapore, straight away given a Sentosa Bungalow by their parents. Dun even need to look for job, which will be pointless anyway, because UPC Hawaii is a Degree Mill and not recognised in SG.

Eh I know someone like this also, same person ah??

which is why we all need to continue learning. I did not stay at my basic degree. Through my career I have completed a few professional and academic certifications.

I cannot be going to prospective employees and ask for a job with my 15 year old degree.

Whether I am applying for a fresh grad job or a experienced high level one, its both a laughing stock.

Actually, the numbers of this "privileged" children are many many....... too numerous. That's why people always says, "Singaporeans are Rich."

Singapore got a lot of Cardboard Aunties and Uncle, but also got many many Ultra Rich.

A few, actually, die die do not want to study, can get kicked out of 3 Degree Mills in quick succession, but the Parents refuse to give up, keep throwing money at a "lost cause." So after many many years, eventually the rich "Dunce" kid will graduate with a half past six Degree.

TS do start to use these rich friend as a target.

Set yourself a target what age u want to achieve what and most importantly how u going to achieve your goals.

Of course don't tell me toto or 4d or soccer. These are random luck not a real solid plan.

All the best. Remember money is everywhere only diff is into whose pocket

Jelly doesn’t bring one anywhere.
Make that jelly into motivation. Fail? Work harder, fail again? Work harder again.
Why, because LL have to put foods on table.
When reality hit, life goes on.
Also don’t know what I’m saying liao...

A half past six degree means the person is also half past six. It is not equitable. Respectable employers will scrutinize such details.
