| As humans, we have an innate need for connection and approval from others. Often, we make an effort to gain validation and this is natural. Yet, in our world today, this need for others’ approval becomes magnified; as many of us are constantly plugged in on social media, we tend to get caught up in the pursuit of “likes”, “shares”, “follows” & engagement. These can have implications on our mental well-being and happiness. Through this issue, I hope that we can be more aware of the impacts & risks associated with excessive use of social media, and what we can do about it so that we can live out our best lives. | | How to Stop Worrying What Other People Think of You If you find yourself looking over your shoulder, self-conscious, or fretful about how your actions will look to others, here’s some help to stop worrying. | | The Social Dilemma: Social Media and Your Mental Health ‘Like’ it or not, using social media can cause anxiety, depression, and other health challenges. How can you change your habits? | | A Reason Not to Worry What Others Think  We spend a little too much time worrying about how we must appear in the minds of others. However, the poignant, useful truth is that almost everyone doesn’t care at all about who we are, what we’re doing and how we’ve messed up. | | Proudly Brought to You I seek to reach out to people who believe in safeguarding the interests of their loved ones. Let me know if I can be of help to someone you know or care about. We can make a difference to lives when it matters most.

© Muhammad Syamim, All rights reserved. | |  | | Diyana (Lawyer) I decided to go with Syamim compared to other financial advisors as he was strongly vouched for by one of my closest friends, and I truly needed someone who's able to understand my predicament at that material time!
I like the fact that Syamim never once pressured me to buy a policy that's beyond my age. At times there were considerations which I raised to him, and he'd succinctly advised me against it as my position doesn't allow / necessitates me to consider such considerations.
Syamim is someone who truly understands how finances interplays with insurance - he's not one of those who just regurgitates whatever that was taught wholesale to him during his financial advice training, since he himself is involved with stocks. He has your best interests in mind!
I would definitely recommend meeting Syamim! For people who are of different industries than Syamim, there's no need to fret! Personally, he was able to simplify things for me whilst being able to capture all the necessaries - this is a key sign that one truly knows their products and clients' interests. He doesn't judge as well (a key thing for me), and would instead advise on what's the best path moving forward. | |  | | 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. | |  | | Fatil (IT Support Analyst) Syamim is a dedicated adviser who will undoubtedly give it his all no matter how small or big the task is. | |  | | Nabil (Undergraduate) Syamim's services was recommended to me by my brother. The portfolio that he manages really amazed me, together with his track record for my family.
He’s able to give me an insight of short term and long term plans which I have little to zero knowledge of. It is something that allows me to be more aware of my financial situation and to plan ahead, which I'm grateful for.
Syamim is also able to answer my questions with full knowledge and details which I appreciate. When it comes to explaining the policies again as a refresher, he would gladly do so and most importantly he does not pressure me into taking up any policies.
I would 100% recommend Syamim to anyone who would like to plan for their life milestones! | |  | | Farhaan (Civil servant) I’ve known Syamim since he was serving his national service with SCDF, so when he reached out to me for financial planning, it felt like the right time to get started. What gave me additional confidence was knowing that several of our mutual colleagues already trusted him to manage their finances. Working with Syamim has been a smooth experience—he's always responsive, easy to reach, and takes the time to explain things thoroughly.
He breaks down complex financial matters in a way that’s easy to understand, which really helps with making informed decisions.
I trust him to guide my financial journey and appreciate the clarity he brings to the process and would definitely recommend his services | |  | | Nureen (Accounts Executive) Syamim has been very helpful with managing my financial needs and goals. He has managed to curate a plan/goal which suits my needs and spending habits.
Syamim has always been patient and helpful with all my enquiries, and also very detailed with his explanations during our meetings. I have learnt how to manage my finance better as I enter adulthood and the working world, and to prepare for old age.
I would recommend my friends and family to meet with him to find out more on how they can maximise the funds they have and ensure that they can spend, save and retire sufficiently. | | | | |
