Today I was in Orchard when I saw a Q outside Guardian. Initially I thought it must be some giveaways of free samples, however, it suddenly struck me “How come there seems to be so many people queueing at that period of time where it was working hours?”
Then I took a peep. Ooooh, inside Guardian was Singapore Pools Outlet. If till now, what I am writing still does not ring a bell to you, I am certain you are either
- A foreigner not living in Singapore
- A hermit crab which does not stray away from your home, totally ignorant of the world outside.
Even for non-punters, I am sure that you are aware of the reason behing the snaking Q outside Singapore Pools for the last few days…
Well, it is this irresistable Hongbao draw with the prize money of $10 million! which usually takes place around the 15th day of the Chinese Lunar New Year.

Nevertheless, I am usually put off by the never ending queue to buy a piece of luck.
And shockingly for the first time in my life, my dad actually asked if each of us wanted to contribute $10 and see how far our luck brings us for this draw…
Haha… I guess I will contribute my share of $10 and cross my finger, wishing-praying-attracting all the chances to multiply my $10 investment by ……… hmm how many times is it…. 1 zero, 2 zero…. SIX times!!!!!
My financial freedom???
I promise I’ll get you something should I strike the jackpot. So ensure you subscribe to my feed to be notify of your share of joy! : )
Hmmm…….. which outlet should we invest our money in? Let’s check out the statistics LOL
