Invest in Your Love for the Future

Warren Buffett always says, “Invest in the future.”

And he is right.

But my advice goes one step deeper:
Invest in your love for the future.

Because when you love the future, you automatically move towards it.
You make better decisions.
You create better relationships.
You become more adaptable, more courageous, more alive.

This is the heart of Love Intelligence (LQ).

When you love your future,
you stop sabotaging yourself.
You stop fearing change.
You start seeing possibilities instead of problems.
Your energy rises, your creativity returns, and your actions become bold but stable.

When you love your mission,
your work becomes meaningful.
You wake up with purpose.
You serve people at a higher level, and they feel it.
People trust you more, support you more, and follow you more.

When you love the people around you,
you build alliances, not enemies.
Your influence grows.
Your networks expand.
Your opportunities multiply.

When you love yourself,
you no longer settle for a small life.
You upgrade your self-worth,
and your net worth follows.

This is why I say:
Love is not emotional. Love is strategic. Love is intelligent.
Love moves people, and people move results.
Love builds trust, and trust builds wealth.
Love gives you inner peace, and inner peace gives you clarity.

So if you want a great future,
don’t just invest in assets.
Invest in the love that powers the assets.

That is the real return.
That is the real security.
And that is the true wealth that no recession can ever take away.

The Secret Under the Mattress: Why would a 79-year Man Bet So Big on 4D?

It was 2007 when we discovered his secret. While moving my father’s mattress, we found them: heaps and heaps of Singapore Pools 4D tickets. They were stacked in layers, a paper trail of lost hopes. What shocked us most wasn’t just the volume, but the stakes. He wasn’t betting a few dollars for fun. He was punting hundreds of dollars per draw—nearly ten times a month. At the time, my siblings and I were furious. Our father was a 79-year-old retiree. We wondered, with a mix of anger and confusion, why a man at his stage of life would need to win such "big money." What was he going to do with the money? We saw it as a reckless habit, a sign of poor judgment in his final years. Some of us would say, "If I were to give him money to buy 4D, why don't I use the money and buy 4D myself? At least I have better discipline". It has taken me two decades, and the experience of raising my own three grown-up children, to finally see the truth that was hidden under that matt...

Head Bleeding when the Chair Falls

The Weight of Silence: What Were We Really Arguing About? My earliest memories are punctuated by the sound of shouting. In 1970, when I was barely 6 years old, I stood as a small witness to the fierce quarrels between my father and my late eldest brother Kah Yang (he passed away in 1971 at the age of 17). As I grew up, these contradictions became the soundtrack of our lives, usually centered around our family's shoe shop and clothing stalls in Chinatown. In the court of family opinion, the verdict was almost always the same: my father was "wrong." He was judged as a man who didn't fulfill his role, who wasn't "burdening" enough for the family’s success. But as I look back from the vantage point of 2026, I have to ask: Was that actually true? Let me finally put to rest what my father did right: the truths that were buried under decades of criticism: Unseen Labor: He worked grueling, long hours. I remember him hauling boxes of goods and equipment to set u...
