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.

Ginny, Nurse

I met ken almost 9 year ago during a roadshow. I was very skeptical at first because of bad experiences such as financial advisors just wanting to earn quick bucks hence pushing products and leave the clients thereafter. However, ken is really different. He sincerely follow up with me for 2 years! With that, i gave Ken the opportunity to review my finances. Over the past 9 years, he helped to tidy up my finances and cleared my debts. He is professional yet keeping it very friendly, a good listening ear, high commitment individual, most importantly, my benefactor who helped me in many ways. I’m glad we met and both my daughter and i are very well taken care of. Over the years, i always share with my daughter that Ken is someone who is my benefactor, 恩人。 I would highly recommend Ken to everyone!

Ken has been my financial advisor for 4.5 years. In 2019, I was having financial difficulty over my insurance loan with Income. After I met Ken, with his knowledge in the field of financial planning and he is able to advise us of how to repay all the loans and still have money in hand to invest and share many financial tools available to grow my money. Ken always has the patience to explain the policy in details and make sure we understand before we sign. I am so thankful to him for his advice and I am able to clear my debts that I am struggling for so many years with the increased interests that I am paying for so long years. The 3 key qualities that makes a good Financial Planner is responsive, reliable and customer first. Ken possesses it all. He is always there for us whenever we need help on insurance matters. He will never fail to reply to our text messages and calls promptly – especially when he is in overseas, he will still response immediately. He is a responsible and truly cares for his customers even after office hours. Ken is always have a heart for us, at time, when he visited us, he will bring along some snacks for us or he will order something online to deliver to us. I have never received anything from other insurance agent and don’t even see them or hear from them at all. Ken is so different, he is always there for us attending to our needs. Ken is a very caring person, show respect, very polite, approachable and attentive person. He will always be there to help us to settle any problems that we may face and can’t resolve, he will be the one to resolve everything for us. With Ken, there is no problems too big for him to solve. He gets in touch with us regularly to check how are we getting on or is there anything he can help. Ken is really a very heart warming person in whom we trust and rely on. He is more like a family members and friend. During these few years of his hard work, his company had recognised his ability, he was promoted to senior personal wealth manager. We are very happy for him because he deserved it.

Mr Chew, Teacher

I was actually participating in a Singtel 10000 step challenge and without knowing, did not realise that I also allowed an AIA agent to approach me. Ken subsequently called me and at this moment in life, I was also looking seriously into retirement planning but my current AIA agent is not up to my expectation. So, I let Ken take over my CPFIS portfolio and also bought a new CPFIS policy from him. Once he receives updates, he will painstakingly inform me too. If only all agents are as diligent as Ken!

Aaron, Aiwei & Baby Calla

Aaron and I are glad to have met both of you so that we can understand better our portfolio. I appreciate the professionalism that comes with a sincerity. A heart that wants your clients to be covered adequately without having to invest in duplications. AIA needs more of such excellent services and not just agents who tried to sell policies without understanding the needs of people.
