The main difference between America and Singapore's rich and famous?
In Singapore, Real Estate is the main source of wealth for the wealthy.
In America, it seems technology (such as Microsoft, Google, Apple, Ebay) is the ticket to wealth.
What really amazed me is the Walton Family of Walmart fame.
After his demise, Sam Walton (the founder of Walmart) left behind a fortune and inheritance huge enough for four Waltons to be on the top 10 list of America's Richest!!
How rich is that!
