Glad Sg-eans are scrutinising this hot take, not from a sourgrape perspective but from an inquisitive position. Always ask questions when it's too good to be true. At best, it's poor financial advice. At worst, you could be walking into a scam.
As someone else had rightfully pointed out in this thread, if this story is entirely true and accurate, simple logic would indicate that this fella more than likely already has an extremely large base to begin with. There are too many gaps in CNA's reporting, and this fella sounded like he was humble-bragging rather than sharing genuine advice.
These headlines do nothing but generate views and mislead people who are not that financially literate.
