Mystery Malaysian Big Spender

I read on the news online today about a mystery person who lives like a celebrity. He's name is Taek Jho Low. I'm not going to summarise the news since you can click on the news link to read about it. The question I have in mind is, how did this Ivy League guy be so rich? How did he accumulate so much wealth when no one in Malaysia - I for one keep track of rich and famous people in the world (including Malaysia) since I mentioned in my first post that I will be there someday!

What I find really interesting is the comments that people put on nypost. One person commented "To this day, I have never seen a fat Asian who is smart". I wonder what was the person trying to say? That all Asians are stupid or are all fat people stupid? My comment to him here is - if all Asians are stupid - look at China! China is so huge that the Western countries have to bow down to them. Look at how China's demand affect the supply of resources in the world. And another thing I would like to say is fat people doesnt mean they are stupid.

Well, I tried googling about him since he is so young (20 something Wharton grad) from Malaysia and spending like a huge star. All I could find is that he is a director for UBG Berhad - an investment house in Malaysia. That's all I could find about him.
