In Touch

A Monthly Curated Newsletter

In this issue, I'd like to do something different. All of the highlights are very interesting videos from TED talks about the way we think. The videos are between 15 to 30 minutes, but they are well worth your time I promise. Hope these resources will help create marginal changes in your life every so often. Let's be enlightened together!

Career analyst Dan Pink examines the puzzle of motivation, starting with a fact that social scientists know but most managers don't: Traditional rewards aren't always as effective as we think. Listen for illuminating stories -- and maybe, a way forward.

Joyce, Sales Executive

I am very grateful to meet a wonderful Insurance Agent. I am always very skeptical about Insurance Agent. Therefore, I only trust the people I know. All my plans are brought from friends and relatives. After I bought my first plan from my friend, he was good for the first few years. But disappears after that. I thought I can rely on my friend but disappointed that he did not contact or keep in touch for a long time. Thereafter, a new agent provided his service but also stopped after a short period. And I met Simon! He is really very professional, accord great service and always very patient in helping me with the changes in my plans. The most touching part is that’s he really make effort to keep in touch in the nicest way which I truly appreciate. I will definitely recommend him to anyone that needs professional help in their insurance plans.

Ashlyn, IT Analyst

I was introduced to simon by a close friend. My policies was managed by another friend then, who i supported when he first got into financial advisory. My friend-agent was comission driven rather than putting my interest/needs into consideration. I am thankful to have meet simon, and he is more then willing to have all my policies transfered to him so he could manage it holistically despite not earning a dime to my existing policies. He have been still managing them till date, and have been very helpful and proactively contacting me on a regularly basis to review my policies and share new policies thats applicable to best of my interests after understanding my ever-changing concerns. No regrets in changing agents years back, one of the wiser decision i made! Thanks simon.

Lynn, Accountant

I’ve had my fair share of experience with financial planners , typically coming across as opportunistic and hard sellers which made me avoid them at all costs. Simon has been a breath of fresh air. He is not only down to earth, but also pragmatic. In the last 6 years, Simon has been supporting my financial planning needs, always at hand with great advice. Thanks Simon!

Kia Choon, Remiser

Simon has been serving me for more than 10 years diligently. I got to know him from cold call and initially I was skeptical but his sincere services build the trust over time. He showed that he really care about my actual needs and is always very patient in his explanations of various questions I have regardless how much details I require. He has shown his professionalism and knowledge time and over again. I feel secure to have entrusted my families’ portfolio with him. He is definitely someone that you can fully entrust to and I would strongly recommend him.
