With a diploma in marketing and management from Kaplan, Larry Lim never imagined he'd be spending his early twenties scrubbing toilets in a kopitiam. “I sent out so many resumes, but couldn’t land anything related to what I studied,” he says. After a year of trying in vain, a relative – a shareholder in a coffee shop chain – told him, ‘why not come and work for me?’.

Nothing is shameful when you don't steal,scam or rob,as the Cantonese saying goes come down and walk if the 🐎 horse you are riding is dead. True hardship will make you to become a better man into your future life.

Diploma holder washes toilet? So what? Even doctorate degree holders also wash toilets at home without being paid. Now owns a Matcha stall? Strive or thrive? Sustainability?

It is a 👍 good 👍 example to all our Young Singaporean. NEVER, NEVER be disappointed, when you DO NOT HAVE A NATIONAL FOUNDER, as SIR LKY to be your father and made you PM of a nation, yet telling you that YOU ARE NOT TALENTED. If you put up your persevered determination like this Mr LARRY. YOU will be able to prove to yourself that YOU CAN make it without a successful father to put you in your place.

Owing a stall nothing to shout. Whether can sustain a stall is another
