My brother also didn't want kids and justified with all kinds of philosophical, ethical and personal reasons. Guess what. He's now a proud and busy father of 3 kids. Three.
Haha. That's what everyone tells me. The good news is everyone doesn't include my fiancee.

It had been 4 years after my graduation from local uni.

I am doing biomedical sales now and still remain in the LS industry.But many my friend leave the industry total and become Financial Advisor, Real Estate Agent, teachers and etc.

Only small % with strong interest proceed further for PHD. But it is not easy, and have to study many years to have that title.

Those remain in LS without strong interest feel struggle without direction remain inside the industry. It is a hard time when your friend who are in finance and engineer become manager.

It's the same for a lot other industries, except maybe for IT.

Don't look down on financial advisors and property agents. Some of them work hard, earn an honest living and make a lot of money.

Those who follow the Government's advice end in grief. Try Google "Cai Ming Jie".

The way to succeed in life is to do opposite to what the Government says.

Get your thesaurus and find the antonym of "Life".

Next, find the antonym of "Science".

Next, Google "Nicky Teo Chin Li".
