Ep 122 Part 1: The Replacement Son Who Refuses to Drive a Porsche?! | Peter Yong (aka Mr MoneyTV the Personal Finance YouTuber)

Hey STIMIES!


It’s time to meet the Replacement Son who refuses to drive a
Porsche: Peter Yong aka Mr Money TV.


One of Malaysia’s most beloved personal finance YouTubers with
153k subscribers!


It’s one thing to start another YouTube channel; quite another to
turn it into a thriving 7-figure business in Southeast Asia, but
Peter has done just that. And today, we dive deep & personal,
touching on things like how:


Peter was born to be a replacement son, which severely affected
his confidence & self-esteem


His father was a gangster!! Who taught Peter to clean his gun
when he was just 5 years old?!


He thought money was evil. Until he realised it wasn’t


He was thriving in his RM 250,000/year insurance job then gave it
all up & sold his BMW, to go all-in with his YouTube
channel. 


Just when his son was born.


Peter has so many gems to share that I had to cut this interview
into 2 parts!


This is Part 1.


I hope you enjoy it!
