Chew's is a rags to riches story. He came from a very difficult background. His family struggled to make ends meet-- his father was a physically abusive alcoholic who left his family when Chew was young. CM was taken care by a relative as his mum was the sole bread winner. 

Mediacorp's ony pays their top tier actors well [Zoe Tay, Fann Wong level], and even then, Chew was from an earlier generation of actors whose pay was good but not Zoe level [Zoe won Star Search the year before him] . His wealth mainly comes from doing ads [which can be extremely lucrative].  He has always been active in charitable works even before his illness plus he can actually act so I say all the best to him and his family. He is courage in the face of overwhelming adversity.

This sheet u call overwhelming adversity, you really need to hv ur retarded brain checked..
