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.

Eric Tam Ho Yin. IT Manager. From HK

Meiting is able to listen to me and understand my needs. She could provide different options to fit to my needs. Meiting is patient and keen to understand my needs, and she is also professional to share available products in the market to fit to my needs.

Dickson Tan. System Engineer

Prior to having Mei Ting as my financial advisor, my portfolio has been transferred several times due to the previous agent leaving the company. Knowing that she been in this industry long enough, i know my portfolio will be well taken care of. Beside that, Mei Ting take the effort to understand her client background and situation before introducing any policy to her client which i feel is very important in this industry. If you are looking for an agent in the insurance industry, i strongly recommend Meiting given that she place her client interest over her personal gain which personally i feel is an important attribute to look for in an agent.

George Foo, Regional Sales Director

The biggest benefit working with Meiting is that she is detailed & listens well. This is important as my financial planning is specifically designed around preparing for my next phase of life. One thing I will like to share with people in similar situation is to prepare well for your own health & wealth planning.

MeiTing is very detailed and keeps an eye out for my portfolio. She is approachable whenever one needs to speak with her, and her assistant also is perfect! I've recommended many friends and family and they're always happy with her. She has earned my trust.

Guo Hong, R&D

The biggest benefit I got through working with Meiting is understanding the mechanics of the funds and allocation of funds. It opens a new channel of investment for me to let my wealth grow. It is never too late to start financial planning. It is not about buying, but about understanding. There are alot of platforms that allow you to buy but not many platforms to allow you to understand.
