Captain of My Family Ship
Father is like the captain of the family ship, so saying "Happy Father’s Day" in style is essential. My dad, who is in his 70s, appreciates thoughtful gestures more than expensive gifts. So, I plan to organize a relaxed gathering at home with his favorite foods.
During my childhood, I remember one thing he always encouraged me to do: “Stay informed about the economy, geopolitics, financial markets, and how globalization impacts our lives.” To ensure this, he made me read titles, columns, or just picture captions of financial news every day. Back then, I didn't fully appreciate it, but now I understand its value. After pondering gift ideas for him, I concluded that this year I will give him something simple and meaningful: a subscription to the Financial Times and a scented candle from Manly Indulgence to brighten up his personal space. Isn't it interesting how the lessons we resisted as kids become cherished wisdom as adults?
