Yeah, everyone has their own tale to tell about how they sailed the rough seas, scaled the high walls and swam through the shark infested choppy waters and came out unscathed smelling of roses.Previously, we have read about the true life saga of Lincoln Murthi, Kal Raman and T. Muthuswamy Iyer.
Just the other day, I met up with a friend who is now drilling hole into people's bones and spine as an Orthopaedic surgeon, just like how his late father was drilling (and digging) into people's lawn and public roads to sort out their plumbing woes as a plumber in the Water Work Department! Going through various trials and tribulations, my friend managed to be where is through his and his parents hard work.
Just like a radio DJ was telling his experience in Vietnam where the tailors literally worked around the clock to sew his suit. The suit was measured at 8pm, the client was called for fitting the next morning and the merchandise was ready to be collected by that afternoon. All this for a fragment of the cost in the tourists' respective countries. And mind you, the cutting is of latest Parisian style! (And they have 24-hour dentists in Vietnam too, drilling into people's teeth at 2 or 3 o'clock in the morning!) These hardworking people's sweat will one day pay off and the sweet produce of their endeavours will be savoured effortlessly by the next generation. Whether this wealth will prosper into the following generation is anybody's million dollar question as the Chinese have a saying, 'Wealth in a family only lasts for 3 generations'.
