Flying to Bangkok for three big interviews. A fourth-generation billionaire, the Thai MrBeast, and a dragon from the original UK Dragons’ Den.

My interview with Kumar is going super viral in Singapore. Even AsiaOne wrote an article about it.
Funny enough, they barely mentioned the actual core of the conversation. The interview was really about the challenges Singapore is facing today, and I think that’s exactly why it resonated with so many Singaporeans. Instead, the article focused on Kumar separating his stage persona from his personal life, which was only a small part of the discussion.
I love Singapore. It’s home now. I genuinely like 90% of things about it, and for the last four years I’ve been consistently advocating how great this place is through the videos I publish about it.
But I also think it’s healthy to openly talk about the challenges a place is facing and have honest conversations about them.

I was invited by talented podcaster Nicole Lee to be interviewed and reveal my luxury YouTuber life 😁
We talked about why so many expats in Singapore never get past the foreigner bubble, how moving between eight countries across Asia, Europe, and America changed me forever, and whether a YouTube career is really as glamorous as it looks from the outside. Enjoy!

I’m turning 42 this August, and I feel like what I’m doing now is what I had been searching for throughout my entire professional life.
I started this project only 4 years ago, which is relatively late. I was almost 38. It took me all those years to finally find something that I genuinely love, while also providing well for me and my family.
What’s interesting is that today’s guest also started late. At 47, he launched a brand that eventually reached a valuation of more than one billion dollars.
To hear his story, I traveled to a very remote rural area of Thailand, where he built a house and decided to settle down.
This turned into one of the most eye-opening, sincere, and actionable conversations on my channel.
Watch it if you’ve ever felt like you’re running late in life:

Today's guest is a billionaire. Wait... again? 😄
But this one is a bit different.
Fred Mouawad is a diamond billionaire from one of the world's most iconic jewelry families. For the past 36 years, he has lived in Thailand, building his life and expanding the family business from Bangkok.
Fred shared why he chose Bangkok as his family's home, how wealthy families avoid losing everything by the fourth generation, and what affluent parents teach their children that most people never learn.
The video isn't getting our usual traction in terms of views. I suspect many people are skeptical of stories about those who inherited wealth.
But honestly, being born into money comes with a very different set of challenges. I'm not even sure who ends up happier: someone who built wealth from scratch or someone who inherited it.
The real question is what you do with that inheritance. Did you grow it, multiply it, and find purpose in the process, or not?
Anyway, enjoy the new video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m7FbPZYZ2nk

I interviewed a legend in the world of business education: Professor Arnoud De Meyer, ex-President of Singapore Management University and former Dean of INSEAD, who brought it to Singapore 26 years ago.
Today, he sits on the boards of several companies, including Banyan Group. Originally from Belgium, he first came to Singapore in 1985 and has spent much of his life here ever since.
We talked about whether Singapore is really as boring and sterile as some people think, why Europe is struggling to keep up with Asia and whether university will still matter for young people in an AI-driven world.
Enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E84avHDDWI8
