The Gift of Paying It Forward

When was the last time you received kindness from somebody? When was the last time you extended an act of kindness to someone else, and to what end? As it turns out, there can be tremendous merits and outcomes in paying forward a kindness received with a good deed to somebody else, especially when done out of gratitude. The concept of "Paying It Forward" is nothing new, but in our world, I believe we could do with more compassion and selflessness as it brings out the best in us.

The Art of Paying it Forward Without Spending a Dime

When we pay it forward we commit an act of selflessness that transcends our connection to other humans on the planet, elevating the human experience in a positive way. Whether it’s a showing of kindness, faith, or even compassion, it all makes a difference and can potentially trigger a chain reaction of reciprocated behavior.

The Power of Altruism

Classical economics adopts a model that says people are primarily driven by material self-interest. Political science assumes that people are driven to maximize their power. But this worldview is clearly wrong. In real life, the push of selfishness is matched by the pull of empathy and altruism. This is not Hallmark card sentimentalism but scientific fact: As babies our neural connections are built by love and care. We have evolved to be really good at cooperation and empathy. We are strongly motivated to teach and help others.

Jason (Group CFO & GM ASEAN)

I was referred to Peiyi by my trusted banking advisor, and right from the start I felt the professional and friendly difference in collaborating with Peiyi compared to any other insurance financial consultant I've dealt with in Singapore for the past 11 years. Peiyi is attentive and patient, and listens clearly to your requirements, clarifies and then methodically guides you through all things insurance. As mentioned to Peiyi on many occasions, she finds a way to make sure that you fully understand the range of coverages available, without overwhelming you. She is not pushy and truly cares about her clients, which is quite evident in that she remains your point of contact from policy evaluation, to application, to approval and through any claims processing you need to make. In summary, wish I had met Peiyi 11 years ago, and am sure that you can trust in her to ensure your insurance needs are met.

Naveen (Managing Director) & Nivi (HR Lead)

Peiyi has been our family's consultant since 2019, and what started with a coffee meeting years ago, turned out to be a great outcome for our family. We were looking for a Critical illness cover and wanted very specific terms. Peiyi has been fantastic in understanding our requirements, working with the insurers and getting us the right coverage for our family. Her ability to execute, follow through and engage her clients is par excellence and the best we have seen in Singapore. She has been truly amazing and we highly recommend her as an agent to correctly understand your insurance needs and customise your requirements.

Diane (Finance Controller) & Kevin (Big 4 Senior Manager)

Peiyi is not only patient but also very genuine. She took time to understand our needs and questions and patiently explained the policies in ways that are easy to comprehend. Through the few meetings and discussions with Peiyi, she was always genuine with her advice and shared her personal experiences as well which made us very comfortable working with her and knowing that she will take good care of us. Highly recommended financial consultant :)

Kin Foong (Senior Audit Manager) and his lovely wife Carmen

Peiyi has been my insurance agent since 2018. She's professional, dedicated & most importantly the sincerity and patience in understanding the needs of her clients. Thus, I will definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a financial consultant, whom you can trust. Thanks for the COVID carepack! #peiyitforward

Denise

I was referred to Peiyi by a few of my close friends, and was initially hesitant about meeting people from finance/insurance as I had faced impatient and pushy ones in the past. She was patient in guiding me through the basics of insurance, letting me feel assured that she has my best interests at heart. After meeting her and letting her review and handle my portfolio, I feel more at ease as I know I have someone trusted to turn to about such matters :)

Vince

I was referred to Peiyi by one of my friends; she contacted me at the time where I was actually looking for some personal insurance which is very coincidental. She was nice and very concise in her explanation, she did hit most of the questions and needs that I'm looking for even before asking. I would definitely recommend her to those who are looking for a financial consultant.
