In a recent episode of Korina Interviews, renowned motivational speaker and financial adviser Chinkee Tan sat down with veteran journalist Korina Sanchez to share the story behind his success.

Tan shared his insights and practical advice, offering viewers a glimpse into the principles that guided him to success.

Sanchez began by asking Tan about the common perception of Chinese people possessing a natural talent for business.

“Hindi ba, sabi nila yung mga Chinese talagang magaling sa pagnenegosyo? Sa palagay mo doon mo nakuha?” she asked.



The financial adviser agreed, attributing his entrepreneurial mindset to his upbringing.

He recalled his mother’s words of wisdom, which she said to young Chinkee, “Bakit mo pagyayamanin ang ibang tao kung kaya mong pagyamanin ang sarili mo?”

“Indirectly na sinasabi niya kung masipag ka matsaka gagawan mo ng paraan para sa’yo na lang,” he remarked.

When asked about his decision to not pursue completing a college degree, Chinkee acknowledged the unique challenge of earning money early in life.



“Imbes na ilagay ko yung oras sa pag-aaral during at tapusin ko, na ito rin gagawin ko, tinuloy ko nalang,” he explained, choosing to focus on his business ventures instead of pursuing a traditional education.

On another note, Tan revealed what he did when he earned his first million.

“Nung kumita ako talaga, binalik ko lang. Nenegosyo ko talaga,” he said.
