A Monthly Curated Newsletter

What if growth isn’t about big leaps, but small, curious steps?

Serene Khor. Paralegal.

I met Ruth during a yoga retreat and then we become friends. Ruth is very professional and meticulous with her financial planning advice. She is very responsive and helpful whenever I need her helps with my insurance advice or claims. Her advice is tailored to meet my needs and she goes above and beyond to help every step of the way. She is quick to follow up on any questions that I have and is always just a text away. I’ll definitely recommend her to anyone who needs help with financial planning.

Chong Yuen Li. Project Manager

I always choose my financial consultant based on who is more trustworthy and chose them from among my close friends. But Ruth is different I do not know her prior meetup but found her online through FB. First meetup my impression of her was very good. She makes me feel comfortable to share with her why I want to buy medical insurance. Although she looks young (most of my agents are older than me) but she gave me impression she is a capable young mother whom I can trust. She is very efficient and knowledgeable and after just one appointment, I know I can trust her with my insurance plan. When I was admitted to hospital last Dec. She was quick to help me submit claims for my hospitalisation bills. I will not hesitate to recommend her to my family and close friends.

Erik Lane

I am very lucky to have come across a consultant like Ruth. She has been very professional, reliable and has proven to be very trustworthy in our dealings. She also happens to possess a fantastic sense of humor (which of course, I appreciate tremendously). But in all seriousness, Ruth is very dependable and always has my back, despite the hour of the day. She has proven this on more than just one occasion. I would recommend Ruth highly as I do not know of a more professional consultant amongst those that work with my peers.

Nurhana Binte Ismail. Public Service Officer

If there is one thing I know about Ruth, is that she is someone I can trust and depend on. From letting her “fly” me in acroyoga poses, to handling my financial plans - I know that I’m always in good hands! She has been a great friend, “cheerleader” and inspiration in our yoga journey together over the years, and I’m proud to watch her grow and thrive, not only as a yoga teacher, but also as a rising Financial Consultant!

Dr Michelle Kam. Ministry of Health

I was introduced to Ruth when I wanted to know more about insurance policies. The first meeting with her was very educational and made me aware of the blind spots in managing my finances and planning for the future. She has been really patient in explaining all the basics of insurance and financial planning in a very clear and concise way that is easy for the layman to understand. Her advice is tailored to meet my needs and she goes above and beyond to help every step of the way. She is quick to follow up on any questions that I have and is always just a text away. I’ll definitely recommend her to anyone who needs help with financial planning.

Dr Claris Shi. Ministry of Health

I usually shy away from Financial Consultants but Ruth was so friendly and genuine, and didn’t laugh at my lack of financial planning knowledge! She took time to go through all my policies and identified areas where I needed coverage. She definitely goes above and beyond her call of duty and is so easy to talk to when I have any questions.
