The mine my family owned went bankrupt. We really don’t have any mines left. But we do have two thousand houses in Kyoto.
After his girlfriend cheated on him, Wan Heng suddenly discovered that his family owned two thousand rental properties in Kyoto. The rent brought in more than two hundred million a month, and he couldn’t spend it all. What was he supposed to do with the money? He’d heard starting a business could burn through it pretty fast...
So, on the day he became the richest man in the country, Wan Heng poured his heart out to reporters.
“I didn’t want this to happen, but somehow everything I do makes money.”
“My success is entirely down to luck.”
“Honestly, my original little goal was just to spend some money...”
See? The richest man’s life is so simple and unpretentious, so humble and low-key.
