I had a female friend in Bangkok, a restauranteur daughter of Hakka Chinese whom we use to go for drinks and chat. Astonishing beauty.

I invited her for a drink. And I knew her only working in her restaurant. As I sat in the bar drinking my beer waiting for her I saw a woman in a dark dress entering the bar. The men all turn around.
She was dressed to kill!!!

She gave a good idea of the Chinese family culture. She studied media but his father told her he would open a business and she would run it. He opened one business for each of his children.
When he would retire, (which would not be at a too old age) the children would take care of him and his wife.

I asked her about her life and she said she had no boyfriend. His father as trying to match her with rich Chinese guys.
Elmat: Did you like any of them?
Lady: NO!!!
Elmat:Well, why?
Lady:They are all fat. I don't know why all Chinese son of rich family are fat. They get fat at the age of 14!
I like slim men.
Elmat: Almost choking in his white wine as Elmat is slim. Really?
Lady. Yes.
ElmatL Are the fat guys rich?
Lady: Veeery rich...

The idea of the Hakka Chinese her father was that, a rich son of an amigo, would make sure the lady would be loaded once he and his wife got old.

The idea of a Chinese business is like this. They look at it as a sinusoidal cycle. Start. Go up, when starts going down, get rid of it and restart the cycle. She would have to see the cycle through in her business.
Her father told, owner has to experience all the cycle to be able to be business person.

it could be that marriages are much like business partnerships, hard to fix the wrong ones

third-party views and experiences ought to be considered

the problem is that boys and girls mature at different rates, and boys too often do not mature at all

the coconut already knows some of what tells to consider

fancy car owners need not apply, etc etc
