Went for GIC visit today.
Ha, ironic how their company name has "Government of Singapore" in front, and "Private Limited" behind.
Again, as with the radio forum, a few things struck me.
-Traders cannot be investers.
-Those who 'smell' might not be able to 'think' and vice versa.
-Smart and intelligent are different.
-Creative
Analytical
Judgemental
Decisive
Initiative
-Effective communication is very important.
-Straight As is a given. (sigh...WORK HARD!!!!)
alright, thats about all of my main take aways.
GIC is really nice. (though I think MFA is nicer) They have a fantastic view from their office. (renders the ferris wheel redundant).
One of their HR staff looks SUPER like Mrs Chan. We mentioned it to her, and guess what?! She knows Mrs Chan!!! Apparently her husband was working with GIC before...small world eh...
Each day, you find out how much smaller the world is.
you know you love me
