A Monthly Curated Newsletter

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.

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.

Mad (Auxiliary Officer)

Syamim was made known to me by a close friend of mine whom recommended me to see him as I require certain advise because my previous financial advisor does not seem to be helpful. Thus, I decided why not give it a try since its a recommendation from a close friend of mine whom I trust. What was beneficial to me was the different approach Syamim took by going through the extra mile to explain the pros and cons of taking up different insurances and investments, taking his time to clear my doubts. His explanation was very precise and eye opening to me as my perception of financial planning was not what I expected it to be. Syamim was the one and only financial advisor which changed my perception of the typical financial advisor out there who only wants to hit their sales targets. I would highly recommend Syamim to my friends and family members whom is keen to know more about financial planning as I feel that he is one of the most genuine and honest financial advisor that I've known without any doubt.

Nadiah (Executive)

Meeting Syamim was one of the best financial decisions I’ve made. I first reached out after seeing mutual friends engage him as their advisor, mainly because I had no insurance and wanted proper guidance before two big life milestones — marriage and buying a house. The session was incredibly insightful, especially on insurance and financial planning. I had zero knowledge before, but Syamim explained everything clearly and helped me understand how to plan for both short- and long-term goals. What stood out most was his approach — he’s not pushy or sales-driven. Instead, he recommends plans that genuinely fit your budget, lifestyle, and goals. Syamim is detailed, professional, and genuinely cares about helping clients build a solid financial foundation for a better quality of life. I’d highly recommend meeting him to anyone looking to gain clarity and confidence in their finances.

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.

Naff (Media Analyst)

Syamim has taught me a lot about how to better manage my finances, as well as the importance of being prudent and prepared for the future. He has been very detailed and patient in helping me sort out my finances. I especially appreciate him taking the time to come up with a personalised plan that is easy for me to understand and keep up along the way. Syamim sets aside realistic financial goals for me in terms of my immediate as well as future plans. He is very approachable and always ready to answer my queries with sincerity. Thank you for always going the extra mile! I highly recommend Syamim for anyone who is looking for personal financial management.

Amira (Admin Executive)

I was not sure where to start on financial planning and which insurance to take up as I was under my dad’s insurance and I didn’t have my own insurance. So I decided to engage with Syamim as he’s someone I’m familiar with. You will be able to oversee the plannings that he does in terms of finances and insurance. I am also able to see where and how much funds are allocated to spending and saving, which helps me to keep my budget on track. Most importantly, emergency funds. He always emphasise that it’s important to have emergency funds ready just in case any unfortunate events occur. Syamim was the first advisor that I engaged. He did a customised financial plan for me and introduced me to the types insurance that is suitable for me. He will also review my finances and portfolio every year so that you have an idea what you took up and whether you are on track with your financial plan. I would definitely recommend Syamim as he is comfortable to talk to, not pushy, explains everything in detail and answers any questions that you need clarification to. 👍🏻
