FOLLOW ME CLOSELY

I am now a financial life planner with Great Eastern. Many must have been very surprised with this path that I chosen. Not just because they think that this isn’t a job for a fresh grad but… “Huh?? Insurance agent?”- was the most common response I got. Haha. Of course they were also many who were really cool with it and others who approached me for financial advice.

It was quite an obstacle for me to eventually decide on this path as I myself have a stigma towards insurance agents. I believe in insurance protection. Since young, I have been rather aquatinted with the idea of sound financial planning and life protection due to Mum’s influence and also due to personal reasons which I would love to share..

I am sure all of you would have thought of your own goals and aspirations before you decided to do something..Choosing this path, I wish to increase the awareness of financial planning, to educate (hopefully), to create relationships with people and hopefully be a positive impact to people around me. I don’t know how long I will take to fulfill this goal. All of you shall be my judge(:

Financial planning includes things like life planning for education, retirement, etc, savings and endowments, investments, life insurance, health insurance, risk management, business succession planning, financial related advisory and so much more. The team that I have joined is really an inspirational one(got lots to share too!(:) We focus on needs-based service which is helping people to review what they need before following up with recommendations!

Feel free to just ask me about anything and everything. I will gladly offer my help (:

My Hero

I was just looking through my brother's pictures on his facebook. He look so happy in all his photos esp the ones at the soccer match. I know he is a big fan of soccer and I am glad that he now has the chance to watch the match live:)

I am happy that he is on exchange now. He deserves to be enjoying himself.

As the eldest son in the family, my parents expected a lot from him, expected him to be more responsible and more independent, my Dad was a lot more strict with him. It may also seem to others that the girls in the family were better taken care of, more pampered or were showed more leniency. Despite all these, my brother never grumbled nor gave any sign of dissatisfaction. Instead, he rose to take over the role as head of our family(: we all (mum and dad included) grew to be needy of him.

It was during my Dad's wake that I saw the strongest side of him. It was he who held the family together. He took charge of everything that needed to be done, he protected and cared for my mum, my sister and I. He was like superman...! When I was tired, he was there to ease my fatigue. When I cried, he was there to console me. When I was stressed, he was there to listen. No matter how tired he gets, he pushes on.. Until today, he still constantly spring checks on us and on the company..

Just by watching him do everything for our family gives me so much strength and motivation.

Every other being pale in comparison with you.
