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!

Siti, Librarian

Every session with her was always a great insight and I have benefitted greatly from her advice and guidance. Her professionalism, integrity, and unwavering dedication set her apart from the other consultants that I came across ! I confidently recommend Michelle to anyone seeking a trusted partner that has your best interest on their financial journey.

Dave, Finance Analyst

What sets Michelle apart is her personalized approach. She didn't just offer cookie-cutter solutions. Instead, she crafted a tailored financial plan that aligned perfectly with my aspirations and priorities. Whether it was optimizing my investment portfolio or planning for retirement, Michelle was there every step of the way, providing guidance and support.

Joanne & Hoon, Business Owners

Michelle adopts a realistic approach whereby she will understand our needs and situation before recommending and providing her advices and solutions. She never hard sells any of her plans and is more focused on educating us the fundamentals and making smart financial decisions. She speaks with clarity and actively engages us with mind blown facts.

Maylinda, Banker

Michelle is a very sincere and honest financial adviser that will not push or hard sell her clients. I used to dislike insurance agents until I met her because in my perspective, insurance agents only care about sales targets and commissions. Even though I did not take up any plans after meeting her (as I wasn't ready), she was still very helpful and always ready to listen and address any issues or problems I encounter. She will provide me her most genuine advices, constantly reminding me not to overbuy as she understand my life and current financial situation. She is the only financial adviser who is able to convince me, a non-believer in financial planning, to someone who is now very enthusiastic in planning for myself and my kids. You will not regret meeting her and she will definitely value add you, just like how she did for me !

Kay, Admin

There is something about Michelle that makes me feel so comfortable and warm, whenever I'm with her. I still remembered the first time I saw her, I was like wow ! She is such a pretty and gorgeous lady ! After we sat down for coffee, her personality is so jovial and heart-warming that I didn't realised time passed way too fast. She is fantastic in holding conversation and knows when to be serious and professional. Michelle will not make me feel pressurised or uncomfortable when the topic of financial planning arises. Me and my husband would not hesitate to recommend Michelle to our friend and family as she is very trustworthy and provides excellent service :)
