Today all (A) peer and brother are well off, living a luxurious, comfortable life. *Some are CEOs of banks, well-known computer brand and public listed companies.

Working life in banking sector is somewhat “A sharpen blade put to rust” mentality. Enviroment are stable; income secured and basically lives a sheltered life with no concern of what’s happening to the world. A little investment and insurance selling was done here and there's some savings (A) accumulated over the years. 27+ years have since passes by then~

Upon early retirement, (A) begins to wonder what he could do in days to come; (A) took time off relaxing for quite a while;bout 5 year doing insurance. Just then a fellow ex bank colleague (B) comes into picture and invite him for a business partnership deal, a line of business that carries forward to present day.

Initial starts of the company were difficult as (A) and (B) did not have the capitals.
