Financial roadmap for future graduates: Start it young!
I was invited back by the Financial Planning Association Malaysia (FPAM) to deliver a financial literacy talk to a group of finance students in HELP University Subang Campus.
These young minds have such a promising future, I believe financial literacy is a cornerstone for success.
During the session, we explored:
Understanding Your Money Personality: Through a fun and insightful quiz, students gained valuable self-awareness about their financial habits and preferences.
Building a Strong Financial Roadmap: We discussed practical strategies for budgeting, saving, and making smart financial decisions early on.
Hands-on Budgeting Workshop: Students were guided to create their personalized budgets, putting theory into action.
It warms my heart to be able to connect with them especially on the topic which I am passionate about, reminding myself the reason I am in this industry.

Spending time as a chartered accountant in the corporate world gave me perspective on the importance of financial planning for a company. Every company I worked with had an accountant or an army of accountants. This led me to wonder: why are there no accountants for your personal finances?
My clients seek my assistance for a comprehensive financial plan or on specific areas of personal finances that they are concerned with. Sometimes, it could just be as simple as understanding and making a comparison between products. My advice helps save time and money, but more importantly, it’s to prevent anyone from making costly errors due to a lack of better judgement. As an independent adviser, I am not tied to any financial institutions, which makes my recommendations impartial.
I put myself in your shoes to understand your perspective and way of life, so I can help plan, identify potential risks, and find the best solution for you.
