Jerry has been with my family and our family business for as long as I can remember. He has literally seen me grow up through my various stages of life. But it took an unfortunate series of events that really led me to realise the importance of financial planning and insurance, and got me thinking about how to better manage my own. So who better to find than Jerry? And ever since then, things have gotten for the better. To have a mentor that actively makes time for his team is a difficult find - not to mention that Jerry himself is extremely busy. From weekly training sessions to suddenly having to meet someone the next day, Jerry has always put in his 110% effort in making sure that we are constantly learning. It doesn’t matter whether it’s 11 am or 11 pm, you can always contact him. Couldn’t ask for more! | | | | Darryl Lim (SIM undergraduate and advisor to be) Jerry has been my family’s trusted financial planner for many years.
This all began when he aided my parents with their motor insurance.
Unnecessary insurance costs were cut and it helped in the growth of my family business.
Jerry, caring and knowledgeable, would always respond swiftly to the needs of my family.
It is unfortunate that my family had to made a few claims over the years. However, with Jerry’s meticulous financial planning, all claims thus far were successful and it has greatly brought peace of mind to my family.
Further, with proper financial planning that Jerry has provided, my parents will be able to retire with a comfortable sum of money for them to enjoy retirement to its fullest.
These have showed me the works of comprehensive financial planning and how it aids in bringing peace to the affected individual and family members.
Being a people’s person, this showed me how I materialize the empathy I have for others through this career. | | | | Matthew (MOE Educator) & Rebecca (Full-time tutor) Jerry was my (Rebecca) classmate in university and has always come across as a warm and helpful friend.
Today, also as our financial advisor, he continues to give timely advice and a listening ear to our concerns. There were instances where we consulted him and his unassuming nature and objective perspective encouraged us greatly in our decision making process.
We are thankful that our paths have crossed and we would not hesitate to recommend him to family and friends who are in search of a trusted and reliable advisor.
Thumbs up for Jerry! | | | | Kalvin Toh (Director) Kokoro Crystals Kokoro Tea House
