In Touch

A Monthly Curated Newsletter

Research seems to point to the fact that those who engages in deeper conversations with others are happier people. This is what I call a happy finding. It levels with what makes us human. We speak, we listen, we feel, we learn, we take and we give. And deeper conversations allow us to lift each other up.

Why You Need to Start Having Deeper Conversations

Conversationally, introverts prefer to dive deep. We want to know what's really going on in your head, or to talk about something interesting we've read, heard, or watched, among other meaningful topics (link is external). And, it turns out, deep talk is actually good for us, whether you're an introvert, extrovert, or neither.

I've known Jerry for more than a decade. From ex colleagues to friends, he is someone whom one can count on whenever you need advice. To me and my family, he is not just a financial advisor or your typical agent, he is a friend who is always ready to render his help and of course his expertise in his field of profession to make sure that me and my family are well taken care of in our health protection as well as our financial investments. One thing that sets him apart is that no doubts or worries that I have is ever too trivial for him. To him, what ever matters to us, matters to him and he will try his very best to help! So if u ever need a trustworthy and reliable advisor, Jerry is the man!

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.

Wilert Goh (Founder at WoodAndWalls)

"I came to know Jerry through my brother Andy about 3 years ago. I remember I was intending to get some plans for my workers and seeking business advice too. Not long after, my missus and I have a daughter going to be enrolled into Primary School soon, we were looking for a savings plan that could aid her future education. Therein lies the connection between Jerry and my family. And my business too :) Jerry is not the first adviser I knew and before knowing him, like many I've had unpleasant experiences not only with the advisers themselves but certain plans that did not turn out ideal for us. So before I met Jerry, my brother knew my expectations and he wasted no time in referring him. Now if there is an overachiever(Jerry hope you don't mind my using of the term! I meant well) in the Financial Advisor/Insurance line, this man is the personification of the aforementioned term. I place good emphasis on details when it comes to my line of work and I serve my own customers with vigour and passion so in a way, I hope I was accorded a similar service. Jerry patiently fed me so much information that I became gleefully overweight in my head. I totally welcomed that with joy. He explains the plans and dispenses advice not from a personal profitability POV but with my interests at heart. To cut the long story short, I was immensely impressed by his passion, his neverending thirst for knowledge and not least his love and care for his clients. I do not have many people I can readily turn to for advice on almost anything. Jerry is definitely in that list"

Sarinah Mohamed (senior MOE educator)

Jerry is not only my financial advisor, he is my trusted friend for many years. We were colleagues when Jerry was working at MOE. I have been with Jerry since he first started out in the insurance industry. That is more than 15 years ago. I can vouch that he will explain all the important details of the policies to his clients. You can ask anything and everything, he will answer. His patience is tremendous. Jerry advocates that protection and savings policies are of outmost importance in building up your insurance portfolio. If you are not sure or do not understand the clauses in the policies, please ask. In terms of making claims, he will help you through. Definitely a highly recommended and trusted financial advisor! I am happy with all the advice he has given me all these years with respect to insurance policies. You are in safe hands. After so many years, we’re family. Jerry bukan hanya perunding kewangan saya, beliau adalah rakan saya yang boleh dipercayai. Saya telah berkawan dengan Jerry lebih dari 15 tahun. Kami adalah rakan sekerja semasa Jerry bekerja sebagai seorang guru di MOE. Saya telah membeli polisi insuran dari Jerry sejak dia bermula di industry insuran lebih 15 tahun dahulu. Sebagai perunding kewangan, Jerry akan menerangkan semua klausa dalam polisi insuran yang anda ingin beli dengan terperinci. Anda boleh tanya macam macam soalan, Jerry akan menerangkannya. Kesabarannya tahap tinggi. Jerry selalu menasihati polisi insuran pelindungan and menyimpan wang adalah yang paling penting dalam membina portfolio insuran anda. Jika anda tidak pasti atau faham klausa-klausa di dalam polisi insuran anda, jangan malu untuk bertanya dengan Jerry. Jika anda perlu membuat tuntutan, Jerry akan menolong anda seterusnya. Jerry adalah seorang perunding kewangan yang boleh dipercayai. Saya banyak berterima kasih dengan Jerry kerana selama ini, beliau banyak memberi nasihat yang baik sebelum saya membeli polisi insuran. Anda berada di tangan yang selamat. Sekian lama, kami adalah sekeluarga.

I met Jerry through a friend many years ago where he took over my policies as my financial advisor. He is very knowledgeable about his work and is able to explain the policies to me in simple terms. He is a professional individual and has been a dedicated advisor as he shares and reviews my policies regularly. It assures me that my family's policies are also taken care by him. I also had some great advice from him in terms of financial and long term life planning. Thanks Jerry for the meetup! As well as helping to take care of my family's policies over the years!🙏🙏🙏
