Hi,
Friend, you got distracted with his expat status.
In reality it's not related at all.
Whether he is an expat or not.
A local can also have a chauffer and own an island. A local can
also work in the media industry and become rich.
What you're seeing, is someone who is rich, and own an island, and
has a chauffer, and work in the media industry. Why or how this
happened to him? Because he is an expat? It was because he is a
highly skilled professional and got a successful career, thus he
became rich and can lead a good lifestyle.
Don't get your attention diverted to the expat status. That is
superficial. You can substitute his status with anything.
I hope you think abt it.
