My goodness, that was a very long and detailing one. I feel time, people, experiences and exposure are what contributes largely to what we know, who we are and what we eventually become. Your education background is quite a sophisticated one and one thing I learnt from reading this was that you've been passionate about economics for a long time and sadly some of the jobs you did never really was what you wanted. I guess setting up by yourself in 2019 must have felt fufiliing irrespective of the fact that the jobs were infrequent.
30 years in Australia and Singapore, I thought your accent was going to at least take a dent a little bit due to 30 years exposure to different people, language, accents and ideologies. I like the fact that the external exposure did refine you in so many areas. What an experience that must have been for you.
I guess we all continue learning from the various institutions we're exposed too as the knowledge we garner changes us with time.
