| As they dedicate their love and lives to their households and make constant sacrifices for their family’s & children’s well-being, mothers never retire. For all these, moms deserve more thoughts besides during Mother’s Day. But should mothers also think about planning their own retirement — financially speaking? In this issue, as we give tributes to all mothers, we would also like to give thoughts to a mother’s financial freedom. Mothers deserve a worry-free retirement as well. | | 4 Things Mothers in Singapore Should Do to Plan for Their Finances A 2015 survey showed that 75% of Singaporean mothers surveyed had not even thought about retirement, let alone started planning for it. If you’re spending all your energy running after the kids or making sure they pay attention during tuition, here four things you should not forget to do for your finances. | | Mums, pay attention to finances Financial experts advise that it makes sense for mothers (and just about anyone) to pay attention to their financial affairs. According to the US-based National Centre for Women and Retirement Research, nine out of 10 women will eventually have to manage their finances on their own at some point, due to circumstances ranging from leaving the workforce to care for a family member, to becoming divorced or finding themselves widowed. | | Adult Conversation | How She Saved $100,000 Before Turning 30 | Personal Finance | | Proudly Brought to You I seek to reach out to people who believe in creating a safe financial environment for their loved ones.

At that time i was looking for an insurance agent to get some plans for my newborn.
That was when I was introduced to Jerry in 2013 by one of the mummies, Irene.
I got some plans for my son, followed by myself and my other family members as we feel that Jerry is a very knowledgeable and responsible person.
Even though he is very busy with work, he would definitely meet in person to process claims or give financial advice.
At that time, I was a relationship manager handing corporate accounts in a bank. He asked if I was interested to become a financial planner and join him in his mission to save more lives and help people in financial planning. I rejected him straight away as I have insecurities about financial stability as a self employed.
It was after the birth of my second child that I started having problems striking a balance between family and work. Subsequently, I left my job at the bank and joined his team in early 2017.
Since then, I never looked back... even though my first 2 years were tough. I am enjoying my job now!
Jerry continues to handle some of my insurance plans, hence, he is now my planner, my friend, my mentor and also my boss. He gives me a lot of freedom in the way I run my business and he will review my performance regularly and update me on my progress for various campaigns and awards and motivate me to achieve more.
Because of his constant support in this career, I am thankful that I was able to achieve MDRT this year despite the pandemic situation. | | | | Hsiang Yao (A* Scientist) & Ying Ying (MOE Educator) Jerry is the first person that comes to my mind whenever I need any financial advice.

| | | | Andy and Angel (Founders of Wheel Angel) Jerry was introduced by our best friend who assured us that he's the bestest person in his industry. When we first knew Jerry we felt immediately at ease. We shared our concerns, financial backgrounds and our needs for insurance with him. He treats everyone like his closest friend and he shows compassion, knowledge and wisdom. Jerry is a typical example who goes beyond and above even though he is the boss himself and doesn't put on any airs with any clients, big or small. My wife and I place our complete trust and faith with him not just as an insurance agent but as a lifetime friend! | | | | Yin Peng (Lazada, Vice President) I was introduced to Jerry by his wife 8 years ago. Back then, I was quite skeptical about financial advisor. However Jerry won me over with his professionalism, dedication and expertise.
Today, Jerry is my go-to person for all sorts of issues. He is a very warm and caring person. He had helped me solve / advise me on issues where I could not make up my mind or I have doubts on.
I am so glad that our path crossed and I am very grateful to have him as a friend! I would not hesitate to recommend him to my friends who are in need of financial advice! | | | | |
