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.

Alan Teoh

Steven was introduced to me by my close NS friend, Paul. We met through the mutual interest of cycling and trying to keep fit and healthy. It was through a mutual cycling trip to Japan in April this year that we got to know each other better and where our friendship blossomed. You can suss out a character of a person when you have to eat and share a room together 😊 Through this memorable trip and many more cycling excursions, he has shown to be dependable, trustworthy, witty and knowledgeable. I have come to regard him first as a friend, then my insurance agent. Steven does not sell policies for the sake of earning a commission, but he gets to know his clients first and then recommend policies that are suited for them during that particular stage of their life. There was no pressure at any time and I felt that the whole policy transaction process was smooth and done very professionally. I have no hesitation to recommend his services to anyone looking for a professional financial adviser to meet their needs.

Nicholas Chow, Business Development Manager

I used to work with Steven in 2013. Out of the hundreds of Financial Services Consultants I've worked with, I feel most comfortable working with him. Product knowledge, field experience and prompt response is what I get from him all the time but most importantly, he is SINCERE about his approach and I look up to him as an older brother who has positive impact on the people around him. Stay awesomely STEVEN 👍🏻⚡

Yannie Yong

On a chance encounter, Steven was an agent recommended by a good friend of mine. She spoke about his professionalism and good service rendered. Through his assistance, he walked through my recent bereavement claims. He was compassionate, kind and most helpful. His passion and dedication towards his clients is evident in his work. Detailed yet relatable when he explains the financial jargons behind the various insurance instruments. He has shown genuine concern and care. Much appreciated !

Yanti @NTU

I have known Steven for over 20years and I am glad that he is still in this profession. Steven has always been on the toes whenever I need his assistance and advice on my policies. His patience in helping me to understand on each of my family policies (keeping up-to-date on the coverage) is really amazing! I can always count on him whenever I have problems or trying to recap on the coverage of each of my policies. He answered to my queries promptly and his advice for the emergencies we faced in Europe recently was just beyond my expectations! Steven is the best insurance advisor that I ever had and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better. I definitely and highly recommend him to someone that really need help on the right coverage that suits their need and budget! Steven, my brother, you are truly the best la!

Vicky Chua

Steven was introduced to me by my good friend. Other than polices bought when I was a child, Steven handles all my policies. I trust in his professionalism, and in his advice with regards to policies that I may need or may be interested during different phases in my life. He does not sell policies for the sake of selling, but truly wishes that his clients are adequately protected so that they can enjoy life without medical or retirement worries. Over the years, he has become more than just an insurance agent. He is someone I can call upon in times of need. Thanks for being there for me and Kenzo 🐶.
