Want to Create a RM1 Million Legacy for Your Children?

I had a conversation with a client who has two kids. He told me he had already set aside RM1 million for each of them. That’s RM2 million in total! While that’s a solid plan, I asked him, “Why not put aside just a portion of that money and let Takaful do the heavy lifting?”…

Hopping on and off RapidKL with RapidKL x Mechamato on Chinese New Year – because why walk when you can ride?

The plan was simple: get the super affordable MyCity Pass (RM6 per person), hop on and off the trains, maybe stop by a museum, check out Central Market, grab lunch at a cute café in Petaling Street, and basically play tourist in KL. Sounds fun, right? Yeah… that was before reality hit. See, my son…

I wasn’t always this smooth with strangers, unless we have met each other a few times, and I feel comfortable with you. If you think I’ve always been a social butterfly, think again. Sure, I was on the debate team in highschool – but that’s just talking with cheat sheets in hand. Impromptu chat? No…

It’s not earning me anything (yet!), but at least here, I have some control over my content and its destiny.
