Michael Lee-Chin

Life is not linear; you have ups and downs. It's how you deal with the troughs that defines you.

You must look like a money person for clients to trust you.

I didn't generate my success by being a prognosticator. I developed my reputation building our businesses by building great businesses and making them more efficient.

If you're not having a good time, find something else that gives you some joy in life.

In early 1993, when I was 12, I was separated from my family as the Sierra Leone civil war, which began two years earlier, came into my life.

I'd date someone younger or older; age doesn't matter to me. Or looks, really - it's all about maturity.
