how did it shape you

to me, if you really tried hard maybe your dad can offer to pay half

then other half u use angpau

it teaches u in life u can fail to achiece ur target but its not end of the world there are other ways to get what u want

My parents don't really buy things or toys we want, what i've learned from them is that i need to work to get what i want. Like cellphone, i wanted 1 but i need to work and collect money to buy. My first phone is when i was 15, working during year end school holiday. Same goes to my very first motorbike, i was 19 years old that time and work in nearby petrol station to buy 1 for myself.

I would do the same to my kids, you gotta earn what you want.
