I am a retiree who earns $50k pa from passive income. Lives in a luxury condo. No mortgage, no car loan, no loans at all. Drives an old car and lives frugally. Even though I live in a luxury condo, I eat at hawker centres, mingle with heartlanders and dress humbly. Even though I used to be a corporate executive, today, I am just an ordinary man in the streets. A nobody. But to my kids and wife, I am the best dad in the world. To me that is all I want. When I die, to be remembered as a loving and caring dad and husband, is all I need. Not remembered as the rich guy whose fortune created greed and animosity between children. Live a simple meaningful life. Not of greed and lust.
