A Monthly Curated Newsletter

There are many new things to deal with at this time while we are being isolated from life-as-usual. A new lifestyle, a new future and something that can be quite subtle - a new kind of burnout. It should do us well to be aware about this so we can learn to disengage when we need to. I wish you and your loved ones good health and may you continue to stay safe!

Shawn Ng, Sales Director

Know Kenneth for many years and he handles my family insurance portfolio. He knows his work and is never pushy with us. Good service

Affendi, Civil Service

β€œIn 2001 I started working and was clueless about insurance products. How to protect myself? How to save for retirement? Then I was introduced to Kenneth thru a mutual friend. To my recollection, he also just started his journey as a Financial Advisor. Despite that, Kenneth showed sincerity, confidence and professionalism (he still does) when I first met him. Kenneth without fail will explained and assured me what is best for me at different phase of my life. Moving forward 21 years later, my family and I have always put our trust and faith in him. He always make himself available even on weekends (sorry to disturb u on weekends) when I needed his advice or help. Kenneth, I am happy for you Brudder! You are a testament that when you doing what you love sincerely, success will follow through in many forms. From my Insurance agent to my Friend.” *Thanks to Wei Kai also for introducing us. πŸ˜‰

Gary Giam, Senior Financial Consultant

Having working with Kenneth for the past 4 years, I can say with certainty that Kenneth is an excellent mentor and a goal getter. He makes sure that we are well equipped with the knowledge and the necessary skill sets to provide top advice to our clients as well as to the people we meet. Being an introvert, it isn't easy for me at the start, but with his guidance and experience, I am able to smoothly transit into my sales role without much seatbacks. If you are looking for a breakthrough in your career or interested in doing sales but unsure if you are suitable for it, I would strongly recommend reaching out to Kenneth!

Priscilla Chew, Senior Financial Consultant

"A leader is a person who takes a little more than his share of blame and a little less than his share of credit." Kenneth lives by this principle more than many others. I first met Kenneth, a little more than 3 years back. He came across as a straightforward and focused director. At that moment, I knew I have much more to learn from him. Being in the business for over 20 years, he has met many different kinds of individuals. He has a unique communication style, knowing that words transform emotions and lead to breakthroughs. His decisiveness carries the team, that does not mean he makes easy decisions. He makes what's right even in tough times. If one have ever engaged in a conversation with Kenneth, one must have sensed quickly his confidence and clear visions. He is fully focused on helping the team achieve their personal goals, even if it means sacrificing his time. Kenneth is a yes man to his mentees, not because he says yes to everything, but because he couldn't turn a blind eye to his team. Being a good speaker with his language fluency helped me discover that public speaking is a skill I enjoyed very much, and he is an example to follow. In my almost 3 years with Kenneth, I have enjoyed learning from him as my mentor, upgrading my skills and putting my strengths to use. He listens before he speaks, which many of us would have wanted from a leader. He has played a big role and attribution to my achievements and helped me vision who I want to be, who I could be and discovering my identity. In today's fast paced market, Kenneth is constantly looking for innovative ideas and finding the X factor. It was never a dull moment to learn new things from him. If you are looking for a leader that is no-nonsense, honest and focused on helping you achieve your goals, walk up to Kenneth and start the conversation.

Jasmine Chua, Director, HCS Engineering

Known Kenneth since 2007 and he has been managing my family portfolio since. He is meticulous in planning and has advised me more than just on financial plans. He has been my consultant first but we have since become good family friends.

Jace Low, Financial Consultant

I met Kenneth when I was looking to enter the financial services industry back in 2020, and what really stood out to me was his upfront honesty and transparent nature. I was exploring many opportunities at the time and Kenneth's ability to lead really spoke to me because he never gave me "fluff" or painted a flowery picture but was always very real in his mentorship and guidance to me. I've also seen him on multiple occasions go out of his way to help not only mentees but also his clients who ask for his time of day urgently, despite his tight schedule. I'm thankful for his presence in my life and would not want to be anywhere else except with Opulence and under his care. I am sure others who have worked with him will say the same and I am all but certain that future new mentees and new clients will see what I see as well.
