QUICK QUESTIONS

WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST FEAR?

I want to make sure that my kids are OK when I’m gone.

WHAT REALLY MAKES YOU ANGRY?

Lack of integrity and dishonesty. I really don’t like that.

WHAT MOTIVATES YOU TO WORK HARD?

Of course, it changes from time to time. Now, it’s different already. It’s really more of giving back to our country. My kids are big already. I don’t have to worry so much about them. I’ll just prepare their college fund. End of the day, that’s it. That’s the best investment I’ll be able to make. Investing in education and giving them all the opportunities that they want. It’s up to them what they want to do. Even if I’m their dad, I don’t know what’s best for them. It’s their life, and the world is constantly changing. They should be given that freedom to make their own choices in life, as long as it’s not bad, let them do it.

WHAT MAKES YOU LAUGH THE MOST?

Fun time with kids and the family.

WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU WON THE LOTTO?

I always wanted to create value for the community. I want to do a meaningful business that can provide employment for some of the people.

IF YOU COULD SHARE A MEAL WITH ANY INDIVIDUAL LIVING OR DEAD, WHO WOULD HE/SHE BE?

Maybe Michael Jordan, because he’s my idol.

WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN 10 YEARS?

Ten years from now, that’s difficult to tell. I should be doing something even more meaningful. That’s one thing for sure.

WHAT CELEBRITY WOULD YOU LIKE TO MEET FOR A CUP OF COFFEE?

I forgot about Michael Jordan already, but I collected his cards before. I still kept them. It’s like times 20 now when you sell them.

WHAT IS THE MOST DARING THING YOU HAVE EVER DONE?

When I was younger, around nine or 10, we lived in Binondo, in the Chinese community. One time, we were hiding, and I hopped over to the next building because they were close to each other. There was a chance I could fall.

WHAT IS THE ONE THING YOU WILL NEVER DO AGAIN?

Hide inside the water tank. That was weird and brave when I was a kid. And bad, too.

I used to be scared of a lot of things, death, ghosts, but I was able to overcome them. My faith changed everything.
