The pap and the media like to use "exceptions" to prove.

If they can find one poor person out of 100,000 who became rich they will conclude "anyone can do it so long as...".

He made it because he is very bright and despite going to a neighborhood school he could overcome his disadvantage....it  doesn't happen often often that I what his story made it into the news.

We all know sgbuffett has never been a fan of Singapore system....Looking at those rag to riches...Why does he tend to blame the system rather than himself Big Grin

Nice titties Big Grin
Why ah butt din repeat or go poly instead?
Same as anal sex. You watch porn and see the receiver enjoying it. That's why govt love to give anal sex to the people. Big Grin
Honestly, I also super borchup during secondary skool days and JC. I (seriously) only studied on the bus to school just before the exams. Or at best, the night before.

I still wonder how I managed to pass everything Laughing

like toto
announce one winner

million  losers did not announce
It's like saying anyone can have a chance to win Toto so Singapore pools has a great system

Instead of citing the one person who made it look around you you see many more elderly poor who have to do menial work and collect card board for a living.
