Thank you for sharing. Your story is very inspiring.

Hi, want to share my experience…

My wife and I came from middle class families. Both of us graduated from Australian universities in the 90s, courses paid for by our parents. I managed to attain 1M net asset 7 years after working. However, due to financial obligations to siblings, parents from both sides and own family, wealth accumulation had been slower than I expected. Things only brightened up the last few years after obligations to siblings have been fulfilled according to my parent’s wish.
Now I work 11 hr day, 6 day week, including public holidays, down from 14hrs previously, will reduce to 8-9 hrs next year to spend time with family

Salary – 25% our monthly income.
Private fund management. – 75% of total income.

Age: 50+

Assets:
Five properties, estimated 22M
Two 10-year old cars worth 30k
Equities invested in various countries about 12M.
EPF 1M
Business – Not appraised.

Liabilities
Loan – 5.5M
