Poor to poorer can?

This type of thing , only say inside toilet or bedroom. Not in internet, tambah more wound. Sudah sedih, mari sini tambah sedih. Sohai.

rich to poor is more common than the other way around, you just dont see it because of survivorship bias.

one of my uncles inherited a rice factory in the 80s and because he's a moron, spent almost everything on maintaining a lavish lifestyle. no investment or emergency allocations whatsover. went bankrupt in around 15 years.

lucky fart had things work out in the end though. he managed to secure top tier education for his son, who became a successful businessman and now he lives comfortably again.

My advice is don't trade bursa lol

Bro he asking for from rich to poor

Not from rich to afterlife

Ayam not rich or poor. After so many years struggling, ayam now not rich or poor. Like that kira or not?

For every successful business there will be 10 unsuccessful ones but no one wants to listen to stories that break their heart.
A lot only want to listen to success stories... no one wants to listen to failure stories.

One of Hong Kong’s best-known real estate investors has put another luxury home up for sale at a discount, as the city’s property glut and elevated interest rates weigh on highly leveraged entrepreneurs.

David Chan Ping-chi, dubbed the “Cassette King” for his fortunes made from producing audiovisual cassettes and compact discs, plans to sell a three-storey mansion at 51 Mount Davis Road on Hong Kong Island to repay debt, he said in a phone interview with the Post.

all people I have known from rich to poor: gambling.

friends who lose money in business somehow manage to regroup and fight again, and again.

I went into partnership with 2 other high school friends in 2011, and signed a partnership agreement. Lets call them Ah Beng & Muthu



We thought that 3 persons will be safe because there will be check and balance, no 1 person can make all the decisions. Must need 3 parties to decide on something.

And we added this in the agreement:



Forgive the grammar coz he was from SRJKC.

The first year was ok. We took out our saving and put into the company. We did some trading, then earn some money. We promised not to touch the profit first, and keep it to grow the company. We still have our own job and did this as part of our side business.

That time we just wanted to have a little bit of side income, every year december can go memancing kat Tg Sepat, eat seafood and enjoy some time together like we did in school last time. We were very close friends.

To cut the story short, kalau tak menipu bukan
_______________
A) businessman
B) kawan baik
C) scammer
D) lalabeng

So when we made money on third year, Ah Beng said we can buy a cheap car to deliver the stuff. Just buy a small kancil will do, but finally he bought a proton FLX. At first i objected, but Muthu agreed. 2 against 1. They win.

Then this so-called company car was mainly used by Ah Beng even for his personal things, but the petrol, maintenance, upkeep etc. charge to company expenses. I felt unfair la, u get the benefit but we pay from the operation cost and diluted our net profit.

Muthu said nevermind coz Ah Beng did all the work, delivery and getting the stock from suppliers. Ah Beng put the key on table and pushed to me and said “ok, u do la this delivery. Take it. U do, Im ok one, u take the car”

Of course i can’t do coz i was busy with my day job. So again Muthu said nevermind la, we all work for the company.

Year 5, we really grew the business, and Muthu resigned to focus on the operation of the company while Ah Beng did the sales & marketing, sourcing etc. They both withdraw a higher salary from the business while I end up like a sleeping partner. We have our meeting every month to see what to improve the business.

By now our profit is in the range of 5 close to 6 figures after 5 years of setting up this company. A lot of hard work. If u ask what I contributed, it was the initial capital and occasional introduction of new customers. Daily operation and running of the company were mostly Ah Beng & Muthu’s work.

In 2016, Ah Beng and Muthu decided to buy over my share because i didn’t really do anything and they felt is it unfair to share a third of the profit with me. They can afford to pay me off my 33% and then cut me off from then on. I couldnt disagree coz it was 2 against 1 again.

But something happened. There was a problem with one batch of our stock and this affected some customers. We got some issues and need to replace the goods, and the stock were as good as junk. This caused the company to suffer losses.

Now they change their story. We are in this together. We built this together. Now i have to bear the losses together. Ok, they can still buy my shares but now the value is reduced because of the losses in 2016 to be a fraction of what i put in. And they say if i want to continue, pump in more money to rescue the business.

I declined and cashed out. My initial investment of 80k became like 20k only when i cashed out.

2017-2019 they happy happy coz business was back to normal. Both changed cars, go holidays.

Then 2020-2021 covid. Padan muka they close shop coz no business. Tuhan bayar cash.

my old boss
remittance / money changer
held one of the biggest license in the industry (class a)
fintech destroyed him

lost a niche job since covid19. went from T20 to B40.

Every month I went from rich to poor

I used to earn more than 20k a month for a few years. Now I am M40.

wealth is not permanent. u may have a lot money now but sudden mishap all your fortune can be gone. so while u afford now, do some good deeds

Back then when my old man was running the family, he can afford to bring us go have nice meal at atas place occasionally, as in whole family of 5 members, dine out at airconditioned restaurant when they label air suam as "sky juice" on their menu (so you can imagine how atas those places)

Fast forward 30 years later I took over the role to run the family. Can hardly afford to bring the family to foodcourt dai chow that cost RM12 / pax, didn't order drink. Never buy any new clothe for long long time.

So, I consider this lifestyle downgrade from T20 to B40 (even though techically I'm bringing in more $$$ as compare to my old man back then, but the $$$ never manage to keep up with inflation)

JJPTR?

Yes, young time all the time, energy and health in the world, plenty of paths and opportunity to take, but too naive and didn't use wisely. Too many opinions and advices, should have just followed heart.

Now unker time limited time, no energy, no health just focus make money everything doing things unker could care less about. No more opportunity and path, no chance to take risk anymore, one mess up and it is GG. Now full of ragret waiting to EOL as the days pass by.
