At the age of 45, Huynh Tong Trach is considered one of the successful stars of the Chinese entertainment industry. After nearly three decades of artistic activity, he owns a significant fortune thanks to acting, business and real estate investment. However, what surprises the public is not in his wealth but in his perception of money and life.
According to many interviews published by Chinese media earlier, Huynh Tong Trach said that he has no intention of getting married or having children. The actor frankly expressed his desire to live according to personal choices, enjoying his current life instead of chasing after traditional molds.
Notably, he once shared that he does not put too much emphasis on leaving inheritance. Instead, he wants to use the money he earns to experience life and take care of his loved ones while he can.
This view quickly created many conflicting opinions on forums. A part of the audience believes that this is a personal choice worthy of respect. They believe that not everyone finds happiness in marriage or having children. For those who have achieved financial and spiritual independence, living according to their own wishes is completely legitimate.
However, there are many objections. Some netizens believe that encouraging a lifestyle of not getting married and not having children can create controversial messages in the context that many Asian countries are facing population aging and a sharp drop in birth rates.
On forums, many comments say that "freedom" should not be equated with refusing all family responsibilities. Even, some people question whether preparing for old age and funerals is really a manifestation of leniency or just reflects a pessimistic psychology about life.
However, the controversy surrounding Huynh Tong Trach also reflects a change in the thinking of modern society. If in the past success was often measured by marriage, children and accumulated assets, today many young people prioritize self-reliance, personal experience and mental health.
Huynh Tong Trach's story is therefore not simply the riêng choice of a famous star. It opens up a broader discussion about the value of life in the new era: when money is no longer the only measure of happiness, each person has the right to choose a path that suits them, as long as it does not affect others.
