The raw truth about how ART saved my life

“The arts – things like poetry and music and drama and writing - - those things weren’t luxuries they were necessities. No matter where you come from, they knew we needed those experiences to feed our souls and make us whole and complete individuals.” - Michelle Obama

Jeremy Koh. Senior Manager. ASM

I was first introduced to Laura by a close friend in 2021 when I shared with him that I needed some help on CPF planning for my retirement. When I first met Laura, I was impressed with her level of professionalism. She took the time to really understand my financial situation, my goals and my needs before recommending what I should do with regards to my query on my CPF monies. She is very clear and simple in her explanations and gave me a very clear overview and provided me with financial advice beyond what I had expected, and not just confined to retirement planning. Laura is not pushy in her approach and is sincere, knowledgeable and experienced. I am glad to have her to help me manage my portfolio and strongly recommend anyone who needs professional and trusted advice to meet up with her.

Chun-Chau. Director of Business Development. Saab

Laura has been our financial consultant more than 15 years, seeing us through the various stages of our lives and financial priorities. I recalled that she advised me on my personal insurance at the infant stage of my career, to advising me on family protection when I started my family and having kids, to looking at building an education portfolio to support my kids' education and now, looking at building my retirement funds. We are glad to have her watching over our entire financial and insurance portfolio including other products which are outside her portoflio. She is our "go-to" person for any financial matters including car and housing loans as well as home, car and travel insurance. Besides providing financial advisories, what I really like most is her personalised support. I recalled my daughter was hospitalised years back, she visited her, brought her a soft toy, find out how she was doing and even helped us make claims from an insurance company outside her portoflio. It has been an amazing journey with Laura. I would say that insurance and finance are very sensitive and personal matters. We need someone whom we can trust. We are glad that we have Laura as our trusted consultant, a closed friend of ours and a great auntie to my kids.

Chee Hok Yean. President Asia Pacific. HVS

Laura has been my financial consultant since 2002. She has provided very customised and holistic financial planning advice for me, especially in the area of retirement planning. I enjoy working with her because she makes sure she understands my situation and needs first before crafting a solution for me. Her explanations are clear and she provides options in different perspectives and is not pushy in her approach. I am glad to have found somebody I can trust to help me manage my financial planning portfolio.

Eugene & Cheryl Teng.

Aunty Laura (we call her aunty because she has been helping us since we were kids) has been providing financial advice for our entire family for close to 20 years! She has been very supportive of us and with changes to the economy, have helped us adapt our financial situation accordingly as well. Thanks Aunty Laura for all your help, providing us with a headstart as compared to the other kids my age. Of course I have to thank my mum for investing in us, but due to Aunty Laura's help, my sister and I have been able to be covered comprehensively since we were young, which many kids in Singapore do not have the luxury to do so. Onwards another 20 years!😄 - Eugene Teng ShopeeExpress —————— Auntie Laura has been my mum's insurance agent since I was young and have seen me grew up from a child to an adult. I witness how she has help my mum handled her finances and also health insurances, to ensure that we are all well covered. Now that I have grown up, I have also entrust my financial and health insurance portfolio with Auntie Laura. She would provide relevant advises and coverage that I should get and would explain in detail each plan purposes. Her patient and bubbly character makes it easy to approach whenever I have queries for my plans and making the exchange a stress-free and comfortable setting. 🙂 - Cheryl Teng, Trading Operator, Total Energies

Carol Koh. Associate Lecturer & Swimming Coach. Republic Polytechnic

Laura is a childhood friend whom I had not caught up with in ages. When we first met up many years later, the feeling was so comfortable, even when I asked her for financial advice as a friend. As such, I decided that she would make a good financial advisor. She was very attentive and understood my needs. She is very knowledgeable in financial planning and gives sound advice. With Laura as my financial advisor, I know that I am in good hands! Thanks to Laura, I feel more assured of my retirement plans and I’m definitely more covered medically!

Dr Tan Eng Hoe & Mary

We have known Laura for several years now. Recently, I reached out to her to get her opinion about some retirement plan options. She did not push us any products but instead patiently helped us to make a decision based on our needs at our current stage of life. She was very patient in going through our all our existing policies that we have purchased through the years and offered very clear explanations. We are very thankful for her advice and would strongly recommend her to anybody looking for a different perspective from a trusted financial consultant.
