Especially true in Singapore

Also, most locals were put into a system where you’re brought up to feel “special”

If you were streamed into a gifted programme, went through train, IB, and then local uni, you’ll be very likely thinking:

“I’m the top 10% in Singapore”

And then you head into the real world and Ah Seng whom you bullied in primary school 20 years ago and went to ITE, is now a multi millionaire e-commerce cofounder

And then you realise no one cares about you except the cai png aunty who calls you “Shuai ge” that wants your daily $5

And then you fall into depression
