Dear TCG
[Paraphrased] Why is Beijing so full of douches? My girlfriend and myself visited Beijing recently and all of the young people seemed so full of shit.
[and various other threads which said pretty much the same thing]

Dear Various.
Hello various random people I'm sorry for your fucking shitty experience in Beijing, my explanation is as follows: What you are seeing is wealthy second generation kids [TCG hates the words kids]. In the hotspots in Beijing, say
Anyway their parents got wealthy via good business acumen, good trading or simply connections. This is ok as both myself and TCG don't mind if you make your own money.
There is an old saying common to English speaking societies and China, that wealth only lasts 3 generations. Whereby the grand dad or grand ma works hard and builds the business from the ground up (as above Mr Yip who came in 1972 with £10 in his pocket). The son or daughter is sucked into this business and is worked so they know the hardships and the guts of the business so they know how it runs. Then the grandchild grows up and at 18 gets a company car, company expenses a plush office and promptly runs the business into the ground as they never saw any of the hard work which went into building this business. As auditor and accountant I have seen so many dynastic type businesses run into the ground like this.
In modern day China is appears to have skipped a whole generation completely, whereby at a very young age people pose and show off their 'wealth' when really they haven't made a penny of this themselves. And they rub it into peoples' faces. It is a bit like LKF in Hong Kong. I hate Lam Kwai Fong, although it is also filled with arrogant fuck bankers and such like at least bankers are employed for their money. While rich fucking kiddies keep going to LKF to show off their family wealth [TCG loves to point out people's fake rolexes]
However you and me may get the last laugh in all of this Schudenfrauden is an ugly thing, but sometimes is is justified why?
These rich kiddies think their futures are so incredibly secure they tend not to do the traditional Asian thing, and that is to study their fucking balls off (or ovaries for you women out there). In fact many of them tend not to study at all. [TCG makes money sometimes from correcting their fucking terrible assignments at universities, I mean fucking hell they say Fixt costs they were too fucking lazy to change it to ed or would throw money at me, TCG has learn humility due to the recession and lack of jobs and takes it, TCG does not suffer from face dillusion]
The kiddies I see in Hong Kong carry humongous bags of homework home daily. My experience in Korea was seeing lots of school children only finishing after school schools at 10pm.
However to them it doesn't matter as they have degree mills like this where they can BUY their qualifications, which quite simply are worth fucking jack shit, seriously watch the videos this is called a Tier III 'university' calling it a university cheapens the word university to be frank.
They get shitty degrees (note going to university in China is only something wealthy people do) which aren't worth a fuck. And expect high paying jobs or worse take over such companies and run them into the ground and go bankrupt. And because they didn't have a skill to fall back on i.e. proper qualifications they go so deep into shit.
Take note of this article from 2008 775000 graduates 13500 jobs.
Granted not all of these people who go to university are from wealthier families and some really do save hard to send their children to university but the Chinese university system is stuffed full of rich clueless children. And stuffed full of schools as you see in the video.

Hello various random people I'm sorry for your fucking shitty experience in Beijing, my explanation is as follows: What you are seeing is wealthy second generation kids [TCG hates the words kids]. In the hotspots in Beijing, say
- The Suzie Wong Bar
- The Northern Lake district north of the bell tower and forbidden city in Beijing.
- Wang Fujin Street.

Money = Power
With a phenominal wealth gap divide those who are wealthy are arrogant fucks about this fucking rubbing it into the faces of people another negative Chinese trait. I hate little shits like that with a passion and would gladly spent all day punching them in the face ruin my knuckles and continue punching them in the face until my my arms were bloody stumps.
Let me get this straight, if you make money a successful idea or run a business well I have no beef with you at all I especially respect a certain Mr Yip of Wingyip Ltd. His son and daughter appear to be fairly decent people too.

Wow! Big eye-opener! Now, in 2012, Ontario's education policy for post-secondary is to try to import more Chinese students and charge them higher fees to support our education system. Seems like big two-way shock is coming!
