(02:00-02:08) I’m the first type planner in Singapore that helps my clients to write wills, arrange LPA and also advance funeral planning. 
 
(02:11-02:27) In my opinion, writing a will is important for everyone. It’s not only for the rich, why? Because you want to leave down a clear instructions to our next kid. Clear instructions on how to handle our assets if there’s any or 
 
02:36 Yeah, generally,  people  will but actually writing a will is not expensive with us. But if you choose to right the will with a lawyer then that will be costly. But in Singapore, we don’t need a lawyer to write a will. A will is actually very simple. No need for a computer. 
 
(03:04-03:14) So in a will you only need to write for example, me, my name, my company, future in what percentage, that’s all.
 
(03:49) Even if you there’s no will then people in a family complicates the whole issue and eventhough they want a claim for  
 
(04:14-04:37) In Asia, especially Singapore people are too very taboo to talk about it. But actually it can cure many.  In Singapore, I'm also the first one you know to do a pre plan enrol for insurance component. That means people they buy this pre plan funeral in advance and this money will help them to do the funeral plan. 
 
(04:51-05:04) Expenses? So there are known other expenses that they need to pay. They also can choose what coffin they wanna sleep in. What kind of decoration on funeral. 
 
(06:04) I actually involve people in their life  
 
(07:09) We try to identify who needs help so the people who really needs help 
 
(07:39) Yes, being a mother, an entrepreneur it’s all about time management. A lot of things  have to juggle at the same time so I used to change time for money. I found 
 
(08:28-08:46) For me, there was a time that I am a housewife so Majin left me. I’m only left with $400,000 then I have to shoulder everything so at the time we had this business, funeral business,  so I ask myself because I am a housewife.
 
(09:37) So I go around sharing with people how to write a will, how to plan . My next plan is actually going to an IT school to educate these young generations so they know what to do.
 
(10:09-10:19) So basically my motto now is to continue to inspire more women to turn down their behavior to work to keep their flames burning  so failure doesn’t stop them.
 

Key Takeaways:

1.       Writing a will is important for everyone.
2.       Inspire more women to keep their flames burning because failure should not stop us.
3.       Manage everything in an organized way.
4.       Be life ready with insurance.
