A Monthly Curated Newsletter

Necessity is the mother of invention. Throughout history, humans have demonstrated the ability to innovate, solve problems, and create solutions in the midst of crises, resulting in some of humanity's greatest inventions. All it took was resourcefulness, action, and persistence. Through this issue, I hope to provide insights into how we can live life constructively and creatively, regardless of the challenges that we may face today.

Catherine Lim. Key Accounts Manager

I have known Ruth for years, from a colleague to a dear friend. During her 5-year tenure in the MNC we worked together, she had changed several bosses and almost every time that happened, she would be given a different portfolio to handle. Each time she saw it as an opportunity to grow instead of dwelling in self-pity how challenging the role was or how established she had been in the current role. When I knew she became a Financial Consultant and asked if she could review my plans, she agreed immediately. She is someone I trust and she has my best interest at heart. Since then, she has been constantly updating me on plans or investments that might interest me. Ruth is quick to respond and will always give sound advice on financial related issues. Call Ruth now. You won't regret.

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.

Evon Lim

Ruth IS a superwoman!! Dedicated to her job, wants to help people, and always giving her best to BBGen. It's tough as a working mum and to be balanced (in all aspects is even harder.) I knew her as the yogi and barre instructor from 4-5 years back. I love her choice of music and her effort in ensuring her students are having fun. She is a go-getter.

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.

Lisa

Ruth has been my consultant for years now. Although I met her by chance, I am happy for that! I feel that she genuinely cares about and wants to make a real connection with her client. She would listen to my concerns before trying to provide a solution. She is patient in explaining and finding middle ground between minimising my future risk and ensuring my comfort and confidence on the plan. I also appreciate that she gives her client enough space and time to think and consider about the financial plan throughout the process. Thanks Ruth!

Jasmine Ho

Ruth takes time to look into what you have and tries to value add, often putting herself in the shoes of her customers and recommending only what she feels is essential. Thanks to her, I know I am adequately covered in the event something happens to me!
