Several lessons to learn from this:

1. Just be happy with what you like to do and what you have. Stop comparing with people, including friends and relatives, who have more than you. There will always be who are wealthier, smarter, prettier, taller, etc than you. Just be a good person and lead an honest life. Avoid sins such as gambling, womanizing, drinking, gluttoning, back stabbing, cheating, stealing, etc.

2. Being born in a rich family can be a curse.

3. Life is short, stop whining and start doing good for humanity. Save the world. Help the poor and destitute. Every time you put a piece of meat in your mouth, just think of the millions of hungry souls in the world out there.

4. Be thankful that we are Singaporeans. We are the luckiest people in the world.
