The implications on mental health and quality of life are real. Here are insights and resources that I hope can help us better understand the nature of the burnout that we may experiencing.

Uwais (Firefighter)

I have known Syamim for more than 10 years. Despite our close friendship, he has always remained professional whenever we discuss topics on personal finance. Syamim has guided me not only in typical insurance and investments but also helped me plan through important milestones in my life such as marriage, renovations and family planning. I would definitely recommend engaging Syamim's services as his holistic and long-term financial planning has allowed me to live my life worry free.

Erwin (Asst Executive)

I met syamim through a friend’s recommendation. It was at a time where I needed to kickstart my savings/investment/health plans to secure a better future for myself and the people that I love. I’ve met a few FAs before syamim. Truth be told, some were intimidating and some were pushy to sign the plans. Some were very adamant about their ‘own way of planning’. What I love about Syamim is that he is never pushy. He will answer all your queries and he is not intimidating. He will understand your life’s goals first, before curating a financial plan that suits you. Very knowledgeable about investments and very understanding as an FA. Alas, he is now my friend that I can count on for advices. I recommend you to set a meeting with Syamim to start your financial journey with him. I genuinely believe that he got what it takes to advice you, plan your finances and take care of your investments. I support him 100%, and I trust my financial journey is in good hands.

Shan (Firefighter)

Syamim was referred to me by my childhood friend. It was to do financial planning for my wife and I. Syamim went the extra mile to look into these for me and realized that 1 of my policy was over paid and the benefits was not worth for the amount I was paying. From my experience, most financial advisors will relatively ask you to start investment plans and seldom speak about emergency funds. Syamim was the opposite, he told me to grow my emergency funds first and invest only after that. He has given me a bigger picture on financial planning and choosing the correct policies. Its never 1 option. He always gives minimum of 3 options and a recommended one. That is what we call a zero obligation consultation. We met a few times before deciding on a certain policy. Every meeting with him was a beneficial one. I believe 1 consultation with Syamim is enough to know where you currently stand in your financial profile. I would definitely recommend Syamim to people I know. His knowledge in financial planning is top notch.

Zul (Civil Servant)

The most beneficial part of meeting Syamim is that he helped me calculate my cash flow clearly and gave advise from there on what are the actionable steps to take, including general tips such as ways to reduce expenses. I recommend this meeting to others as Syamim always has a personalised content to share with me. He always ask if I'm comfortable with a certain recommendation and gives alternatives if he sees me having a difficult time in making a decision. All in all, there is an element of legitimate care and concern abt my wellbeing and what the future holds for me shown by Syamim.

Aqil (Auxiliary officer)

Syamim sets realistic financial expectations and goals for the future. Through meeting him, I learnt on the importance of income distribution for an effective financial management. I would definitely recommend a meeting with him to seek clarity in your finances!

Suriani (Nurse) & Nurul (Firefighter)

We were planning for our future and Syamim came rolling. We met and then decided we weren't ready for commitment. Told him maybe in a years time, and he really did come back to us in a year! Super committed lah this guy! At first we thought its solely insurance but after listening to his explanation, we got a better understanding on financial planning and we were sold! Syamim is super patient and meticulous in his work. He provides us with detailed explanations when we are in doubt. Always giving us good recommendations without being pushy. Top 5% service! We would definitely recommend meeting Syamim! It will set you back 30 mins of your time but it is worth a lifetime.
