I met this chap about 8 years ago but I wonder if there are others like him.
He runs a small business but claims to be an astute businessman. Here are some interesting traits ;
- everything that he orders must be specially ordered and he goes to the wholesaler to get it. Durian season, special order from Malaysia, brought in by special contact.
- go eat Chicken rice, must go to East Coast 5 star and the guy there will prepare special plate of steamed / roast etc.
- Order cake for birthday, must go Ghim Moh and cake will look different
- buy car, car seats will be different and specially ordered.
- only goes to places where they know and acknowledge him.
- claims to have good contact for mechanic, house contractor, politician, customs agent, etc
There is nothing that he does that is not special. In the 8 years that I have known him, he has since lost his then business and sold his HDB flat to prevent bankruptcy. He is running another business now. He now rents a place and stays with the family. Son before passing driving test already got car. His 3 kids have the impression that Dad is a whiz in business.
