It is not easy to get rich and quick as some presumes. It takes a lot of courage and biz acumen to accumulate wealth and prosperity.
Some whom developed such traits DO HONESTLY get rich at young age, of at least a comfortable early retirement to ponder upon more than wealth alone, such as social stability as they know from experiences HARD LEARNED, such wealth accumulated can only come from a 2 way street communication - I take the risks, you help me with guaranteed monthly salary and CPF, in good times or bad, and prosper TOGETHER.
Some learn such experiences at older ages, but ultimately, realities are that in our World, there are courageous risk takers whom became successful and uplifted lives, and risk takers whom are only fools, whom let down hard working workers and supporters....
Often, it is those whom had PROVEN their successes in life, either as an entrepreneur or a proven successful manager or team leader with an already high income and savings, would volunteer to help uplift others in one's society thru political hardships, as they are not fortune tellers by way of the democratic vote, even sacrificing their precious time which they could had EARNED MORE in private practice, with their hardwork, intelligence and diligence......
Thus, it is NOT true on what the threadstarter had claimed, as this is SINGAPORE, based upon meritocracy, openess, and democracy with its trusted institutions for checks and balances......
