| As humans, we often like to think we're right, even when we can be wrong at times. Many of us have the unconscious tendency to seek information that support our existing beliefs & disregard or undermine those that do not match ours. But doing so without awareness or questioning can have adverse effects in the way we think, make decisions & live our lives. Today, I'd like to share with you some potential consequences of confirmation bias & what we can do about them. | | World’s richest man says highly intelligent people do this one thing To Amazon billionaire and world’s richest man, Jeff Bezos, this phrase is extremely true.

© Wendy Yeo, All rights reserved. | |  | | Crystal,. Cabin Crew Wendy is a friendly, kind and professional financial consultant. She will be more than happy to guide and help me understand my financial planning. I don’t feel pressure to ask questions and she will let me take my time to make decisions. | |  | | Bao Chuan,. Translator I first met Wendy online through Zoom because it was during the C19 times that she began managing my portfolio. She listens to her clients, not just for the financial planning process but also for your overall preferences (such as me being an introvert and preferring to do most things over text, except when we do our annual review)!
As I started my financial planning journey quite a while ago, Wendy helped me see the areas that were weaker at my current stage in life, such as planning for when I get older because, let's be real, our retirement ages are getting older too, and what worked for me 10 years ago may be a little bit lacking now.
Wendy is an easygoing and approachable person. She isn't pushy, but she shows me all the options available and lets me make the decisions myself. She makes our meet-ups convenient and is totally open to even meeting me at a pavilion near my house when my place isn't available. 😂
Wendy is a good consultant to have (even if it's just in your contacts!), especially for the ladies, because she knows what you need and you don't have to worry about your questions being silly as she answers complicated concepts in a way that you'll understand." | |  | | Alice,. Trade Finance I knew Wendy when she was just a little girl. I have the privilege to witness her growth into a mature and highly professional individual, both personally and in her career.
Wendy listens attentively to my needs and concerns before crafting personalized financial plans tailored to my circumstances. She has impressed me by sharing her knowledge of the financial markets, investment strategies and retirement planning which is totally different from other old-school financial consultants. Her combination of expertise, client-centric approach, and personal qualities make her an invaluable asset to anyone seeking financial guidance and planning.
I wholeheartedly recommend Wendy without any hesitation. | |  | | Alan,. Finance VP I have met numerous insurance agents in my working life so far (including friends and referrals), and Wendy is one who stood out from the rest for me. She is professional and advises well, and not once did I feel she was pushy in selling any policies to me.
I first got to know her through a marketing call from her many years ago, and despite not purchasing any policy from her initially (as I was adequately insured at that time), she followed up with me over the years, understanding my needs at every point of the time and displayed utmost patience in updating me of any latest products that might be of interest to me.
One quality I appreciated about Wendy is how she's able to see through my lens and analyse my decision-making. That is why I knew I wanted to engage Wendy when I decided to increase my medical coverage and also make some financial planning (bought new policies from her in 2023 and 2024). Really appreciate her sincerity! | |  | | XQ,. Customer Service Was pretty skeptical about insurance at first but after talking to Wendy, I felt that having coverage is important.
She is not a pushy agent that only wants sales but she looks at what’s my needs. Her product knowledge and her after-sales service is good 😊 | |  | | Amber L,. Medical Social Worker We spend so much time avoiding FCs that we may somehow miss good ones when they come by. It has always been a challenge for me to find a reliable financial consultant, and I know some of you feel the same way. If you are looking for someone who doesn't treat you like a stranger but respects you as a friend, Wendy is my recommendation.
Wendy is approachable and she has a pleasant disposition. No matter how young or mature a client you are, she will treat you with respect and courtesy. Wendy goes the extra mile and offers help beyond expectation. I remembered how she could organize data and consolidate that info into more apparent notes for my easy reference. Wendy always comes prepared for the appointments and ensures that I can comprehend the information well. I am thankful for Wendy and grateful to have her as a friend and agent. I want to reiterate that I do not regret joining the #YESYEOCANFAM because I have a great experience thus far. | | | | |
