QUOTE(Ralna @ Jul 19 2018, 12:28 PM) Again, see, didn't read my other posts. I can't be putting everything into the first post, can I? That would be too long. Thats why the rich will go for the 25%, who is rich and not sought for premium productRead Post#17, in which I wrote: "Just last night, I was sleepless, as I was planning my life up to age 40. I have many goals to achieve in life, so I plan from year 2018 to 2027 (10 years). I'm a highly future-oriented person, very practical and strong in executing plans and goals." What these plans are, well, biz plans, including CSR. I emailed him about it. As for my savings, it's used for other purposes; he knows where it goes to. Otherwise, he'd have complained long ago, thinking that I'm leeching him. Yeah, based on this: More than 85% of young adults and adolescents aged 12 to 25 are affected by acne, a common skin disease If having acne = poor gene, then what? >85% young Malaysians have defective genes? *** About giving back to the society, yes I do volunteer. IMO, being rich is one thing, but being rich + influential + contributing to the society is another story. If we want Malaysia to be high-income nation, people need to change their mindset from poor to rich. Therefore, financial literacy is important, but sadly it's not taught in schools. That's why many young adults getting bankrupt. After PH won the election, we decided to move from SG back to KL, to serve the nation. Long way to go, but will definitely wanna give back to the society. & If I don't pursue aggressively in my prime time before having a family, then when? After having kids? In my 40s? When? |

QUOTE(Ralna @ Jul 18 2018, 07:03 PM) If you wanna marry a rich man, you gotta have the qualities that they want, and be as perfect as possible. You gotta work on yourself first. If one day your husband to be got struck in a string of bad luck, hit the ground badly, what would u do ?Based on my experience & feedback from them, their checklist of ideal wife material is as follows: 1) Appearance (tall, pretty, attractive) -- presentable when bringing her to attend biz functions 2) Brain (intelligent, ambitious, highly educated) -- to be their partner, and help them in biz & career 3) Filial to his parents -- most of them are the only/eldest son, so what their mum thinks of their woman is very important 4) Can be a good mum -- they want to produce the best offspring 5) Talented -- have other hobbies or talents, e.g. singing, dancing, cooking, socialising etc It took me 5 years How did I do it? In terms of looks, I have spent nearly RM50k in the past few years on various skincare treatments to look beautiful, such as going for facials, mani/pedicure, hair treatments (rebonding, colouring), doing my eyebrows, lips, skin hair removal & polishing, body massages etc. Yeah, I look naturally pretty without any makeup; no need to edit photos too. With makeup, I look way more gorgeous. (Yeah, spent so much $$$, will of coz look fabulous.) On a side note, a woman being able to spend RM10k a year on beauty enhancements without getting bankrupt or in bad debt is a sign of high earning power & prudent financial management. Men find rich/high-earning women attractive too, so be one. (Yeah, easier said than done, but can be done.) Having good looks alone is not enough. If you are an empty flower vase = look good on the outside but have nothing solid inside, rich men will lose interest fast, coz you're no different from those hot chicks they meet. So yeah, I spent lots of time reading books, esp. biz, finance, investments etc ("dry & boring" for most women), so that I know what to chat with them, and impress them. Then I also developed side interests, and learnt how to cook delicious meals, sing songs etc. & I work out to shape & tone my body; going to be age 30 but still look around mid-20s. *** Hard work does pay off. The outcome? Attracted many high-earning professionals, and went on dates with them. (Birds of a feather flock together Also attracted several rich men, who pursued/proposed to me: 1) M, eldest son of a bizman who owns a transportation company. Lives in double-storey semi-D, now runs his father's company. Stole my first kiss without consent. Yeah, punched him after that, but he was still happy. 2) L, eldest son of a bizman who owns a timber lodging company. Lives in double-storey bungalow, drove a Mercedez to fetch me at my house before, for an expensive lunch date. Confessed to me and wished to bring me home to meet his parents. 3) C, only son of a rich family, lives in single-storey bungalow, works in Oil & Gas, earning 5-digit MYR a month. Came to my house one late night (around 10pm+) to give me a box of imported chocolates. Parents are family friends. 4) W, only son of a rich biz family, studied in the U.K. Lives in a bungalow, inherits his family business to supply automobile parts to major car manufacturers. Wished to bring me home to meet his parents. 5) K, eldest son of a rich biz family, studied in the U.K. Inherited family wealth, earning 5-digit SGD a month. We're engaged now. Our anniversary trip this year is to Phuket, pre-wedding photoshoot will be in Taiwan, and the reception + honeymoon (destination wedding) will be in Maldives ← he suggested these countries. Btw, I'm not working currently; he's supporting me financially. I have 1-2 years to relax and go travel, and upgrade myself to tip-top condition so that we can start own biz and family. He and I have discussed earning in MYR and also in USD, and sending our kids to international school. *** When you become the best, you will deserve the best. I didn't come from a rich family; was poor and starving before, but I worked hard to the top in terms of studies and career. That made me into a confident and ambitious lady, and not just sit there dressed in rags with self-pity, and passively waiting & daydreaming for some prince to rescue me. Nah, it doesn't happen that way in real life. A few things to take note: Firstly, rich guys don't like it when girls covet their wealth. They can easily sense if you are after them, or after their money. Money is important, but greed and materialism is a huge turn-off. Secondly, of course, not all of us have the luck to meet/date rich men. It depends on the social circles/social class you are in. If you life is confined to just work and home, then chances are, you ain't gonna meet any of them. You need to actively go out and express yourself, be it in events or gatherings, or online. Thirdly, it's not easy to manage wealth and multiply it. If you only wanna be a rich tai-tai who can't help much in your husband's biz/career, chances are, years down the road, you're out of the game, as you become liability and no longer asset. With great power (privileges) comes great responsibility and expectations. Fourthly, if you're dating a guy who is earning an average income, please develop his potential and push him to success. Your aspiration, dreams and energy level can fuel his ambition to give you the life both of you want -- enjoy comfort without worry, and perhaps, a life of luxury one day. Don't just sit there and complain about him (look down on him and make him feel like a loser) when you yourself have done nothing much to upgrade yourself. It must go both ways/ reciprocal. In order to receive, you need to give first. Sow first, and reap later. Btw, if a man feels he can't catch up on you, he'll either level up his game to be on par with you (great!), or feel insecure enough to let you go/ become controlling. Lastly, love a man not for his money, but for his personality, his character, dreams and ambitions, and earning potential. The truly rich man is one who can lose everything, smile and start all over again, and earn the same pot of gold in a decade or two. Now that is what I call true wealth. :thumbsup: *** OK, done sharing my part. Feel free to add on any tips and comments. No trolls pls; it's annoying. Btw, if you're a rich guy, feel free to share what you think/ what qualities you're looking for in a woman/ what type of women deserve you. & maybe give a tip or two about how you achieve success/ build wealth for our fellow forumers to learn from. like get sued, bankrupted that type This post has been edited by AllnGap: Jul 19 2018, 12:52 PM |

Before I create a strawman out this "sharing" and beat the crap out of it; may I know what's the objective of this sharing?
Rich men do comes with pretty good anti golddigger radar. Correct me if i'm wrong, u seemed found a way to get around it. It's either u got around it or he has a broken radar. But that's not the point. The point is, that doesn't change the fact that you are still gold digger u know that right? The title should be "Golddigger's Guide to Effective True Gem Disguising to Con Rich Men". P.S. That's pretty good title. Maybe u should write a book about it. And I will write "Men's Guide to Walkaway from a Bad Deal". QUOTE(BrendonStar @ Jul 18 2018, 09:38 PM) Congrats to TS. It was an interesting read indeed. You explained your back ground and the environment you were so judging you by the situation you were in it was no surprise to me that you chose your current path. Like u do, I do understand where she comes from. But, I don't think it rationalizes some malpractice and the malicious intent.Guys a winner mindset does not necessarily need to acquire wealth and there are fine woman looking for average income man with qualities they desire. TS's mindset doesn't represents the mind set of many wonderful ladies. I became a SGD millionaire by 26 because I was lucky to work in an industry that pays too well and didn't give me time to spend my money.. I was so busy and focused at work that I just wanted a woman that looks decent enough, will be a good mother, daughter in law, be intelligent enough to bounce ideas with me and above all a good fit to my personality. I wasn't interested in the sophisticated and beautiful high paid banker girls I meet and work with. While single I was more determined than normal guys to get the girl with the right fit to me. I grew up in a broken home with childhood depression as a result so I was more concern about her fit to me and the family I want to build than she being a trophy wife. It is just me and I don't represent every high earning guys out there though I admit my choice are odd among my colleagues. TS told us what her desire was in context of her background. I appreciate the sharing. Do see her story in the context of her environment Focus should be betterman by improvement via one's labour instead of deceit. E.g. The intent to read up on business times not to understand economic conditions and implications but to "pretend" interested in economics & business to chat some rich dude up. That's sick man. I agree if I come up with a topic "Men's guide to get under women's pants with average penis" would be sick too and judged the same if it is"Men's guide to get under RICH women's pants with average penis and get them cumming for more". |

QUOTE(AllnGap @ Jul 19 2018, 12:51 PM) If one day your husband to be got struck in a string of bad luck, hit the ground badly, what would u do ? Firstly, I believe in risk management & planning, so the probability is low. like get sued, bankrupted that type Secondly, he's a lawyer himself. Thirdly, if it happens, I'll have the abilities to help him up by then, emotionally, financially & intellectually. I was poor myself, if I could create wealth when in my younger days, chances are I can do even better when I'm older, with more skills acquired, more professional connections and more resources. In other words, resiliency = the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties; toughness. Now he's helping me, but it's temporary only. It'll be my turn; he knows it. Isn't what marriage is for? Helping each other go through transitions and storms, in times of needs and uncertainties. QUOTE(RUI @ Jul 19 2018, 01:07 PM) Before I create a strawman out this "sharing" and beat the crap out of it; may I know what's the objective of this sharing? Again, being one-sided as usual. You really enjoy labelling people, and once you have your mind fixed on seeing a person as "bad" (based on your interpretation), then whatever the person says or does, will always be bad. Rich men do comes with pretty good anti golddigger radar. Correct me if i'm wrong, u seemed found a way to get around it. It's either u got around it or he has a broken radar.

CONTEXT. You always fail to read with context. & hello, I didn't read with "malicious intent" so that I can carry out my "malpractice". FYI, I scored A in Sejarah (SPM), scored A in Pengajian Am (STPM) and took Malaysian Politics as my elective subject though I was an English major. & I taught biz communication skills and biz writing, to undergraduates and working adults. It's my interest and expertise, dude. I'm not doing it for men, though being able to chat with them on these is a plus point. One thing that irritates me a lot is YOU ALWAYS MAKE ASSUMPTIONS and then personally attack me. CHILDISH AND IMMATURE. |

Does your goals involve only your own money? Yes, my goals involve my own money. My plans are ... well, I don't think it's right to share here in public space, but I've been incubating them for years, so now beginning to execute.How much do you take from your fiance every month? 5 digits? Do you have the intention to pay him back? » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Not 5-digits. Just 3-digit SGD. I'll pay him back if he requests, coz it's not a loan, and we're engaged. Don't you guys give your wife/fiancee/ gf some pocket money? Maybe not all men do this, but some men do. It's not unusual okay. Well, I do record what he has given to me. I'm the type of person who pays my bills, PTPTN and credit cards in full every month; very good paymaster. If he ever has financial difficulty, then it'll be my turn to help him out, but I think he'll be too proud to ask money back from me. So what I'll do is: set a UT fund aside for him or use it for our kids next time. *** I think the biggest difference between me and other gold-diggers, is that: 1) I don't actively pursue rich men although I put in the efforts to attract them subtly. It's up to them whether to get interested or not, not that I can force them to like me, right? Not that type. I don't have any specific targets like most gold diggers do. 2) I don't sleep around; stayed a V till age 27-- my choice, wanna save it for future husband. Yeah, I'm not in the flesh trade or used my body to lure them. I was skinny and had acne skin before, ok. That's why I spent so much $ to enhance my looks. 3) If I were a gold digger, as mentioned earlier in Post #13, "Btw, those men didn't pursue me simultaneously; so I rejected one by one over the years, without knowing who's next for me. If I were after their money, I would have accepted the first man when he first pursued me, coz after all, why would I wait for the unknown/uncertainty?" Hopefully the above clarifies your doubts.

I think there already enough TS has spoken of her personality. if any one really backtrack all her post, one probably can deduce TS in real life.
I think it her sharing her views, and those can take or not take her experiences |

Also is your online persona congruent with what you are in real life ?

What is your take on personality that are rich in net worth but act and live very modestly with very low profile partner ? Based on your experience, are those people consider "rich", and what kind of ideal partner are they looking for in your opinion ? |

QUOTE(Ralna @ Jul 19 2018, 12:09 PM) I know. It's okay. Well, I can't be talking about my skin conditions in the first post, can I? That would be kinda off-topic. My point is, I put in efforts to look good (for whatever reasons), coz appearance is important. Your health and skin condition in your earlier years could be due to emotional distress and lack of confidence. Having acne = poor gene? Man, go read some books on dermatology. AS IF your genes are so perfect and flawless. As a strong person, you should go get a job and set high targets to hit. As a language expert, you should know how to write between the lines. Your posts invites a lot of responses can be more than envy, some are not very nice. |

Actually TS, i dont really care if you're a gold digger or not etc, you live your life the way you want it...
But you should have aimed higher... I have quite a few frnes who married rich... Take one example, both are my friends, we are all in the same industry, he went after her hard... got her... and now his life is set. She's worth about 75~100m in my guesstimate, cause the dad's still alive. That should be your aim, not a semi d, a merc, etc, those are slim pickings. |
