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.

Khalis (Technician)

I met Syamim with an open mind to know more about my finances and insurance. He is a friend of mine who I used to play futsal with. It was a non obligatory meet-up but he managed to catch my interest. I seriously recommend anyone who wants to know about finances, investments and financial planning in general to meet Syamim. I believe that many lack the knowledge on buying properties, investing and how important financial planning is. What really helped me was that Syamim did an in-depth break down of my expenditure and finances working up to retirement. He made sure that I was comfortable throughout the process. He did not try to hard sell anything and made it as though it was just a catch up session with an old friend. I can ask him anything regarding insurance to real estate to medical and he can answer me with his vast amount of knowledge. Even though he is a friend, he is very professional when it comes to my finances. I genuinely feel that anyone who is interested in building their future, should meet Syamim as you will have a broader sense of your finances as a whole and the importance of financial planning and insurance.

Mizrahi (Pilot)

Syamim is a highly-motivated professional whose financial knowledge complements his breadth and depth of market trends. Being collaborative in nature, he ensures that his clients meet their financial milestones while keeping their safeguards in check. He is not pushy and hence works best with equally-motivated and goal-oriented individuals. He works together with you and celebrates in your joy; and is dependable in clearing any ambiguity or doubts.

Nisha (Researcher)

When I met Syamim, he seemed genuine and not pushy at all. Sessions by other financial planners that I met typically employed hard sell tactics and this makes Syamim different from them. I benefitted a lot from the excel sheets where he mapped out the expected/ideal cash flow per month and how to diversify the free cash flow in various ways. Not only that, he also shared with me on ways to invest within my financial lane.

Charles (Engineer)

I chose to meet Syamim as he is someone I've known before and I know people that worked with him. One of the more beneficial part of the meeting is that he gives simple explanations and offers good advice. In addition, Syamim's approach was more approachable and personalized. Other FA sessions normally include someone upselling a product or people who don't know what they are offering. His clear explanations and patient demeanour made the session much more engaging and understandable. I would highly recommend this meeting to others.

Naqia & Emi (Civil servant)

Syamim is a great financial advisor. We had other insurance agents before, but like most, after signing up for the insurance or financial plans, agents tend to vanish. When you are laid in a hospital and need help, you'd expect your agent to be able to answer your queries. Ours didn't. Luckily for us, we had already engaged Syamim as our financial advisor. When I was admitted to the hospital, despite not having a hospitalisation plan with him, Syamim gave us the answers that we needed when our own agent disappeared on us. After I was discharged, again it was Syamim who helped us with the claiming. Imagine that! An honest and reliable financial advisor in your time of need! He didn't hard-sell any of his plans. He listened to our needs and explained thoroughly about the plans he thought was necessary at different points in our life. A great financial advisor that we would definitely recommend!!

Naufal (Data Analyst)

I chose to meet Syamim after a close friend recommended him and spoke highly of his approach. I was also looking for another advisor I could truly trust with my policies. The most beneficial part of our meeting was the comprehensive breakdown of my current financial portfolio. Syamim highlighted what I already have in place, what I’m lacking, and helped me map out clear goals for the future. It was an eye-opening and practical discussion that I believe would benefit others my age as well. Compared to previous financial planning sessions I’ve had, this experience stood out. Syamim genuinely took the time to understand my financial situation and showed real care and effort in helping me improve it. It felt personalized, thoughtful, and sincere. I would definitely recommend this meeting to others.
