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.

We been friends for 30 over years and she has been my agent for more than 20 years. She helped me with my financial investments and the investments done, have helped me to claim my 1st title deed from HDB. When we started our family, we entrusted her with our all our insurances for our family. Not saying this because she is friend but she has done many things beyond what a friend or agent can or have done.
Once our whole family were out for overseas trip, our gate decided to malfunction and open on its own! We only know it at 12midnight that our house is wide open, unattended, I called her to help and immediately she dashed out of her house (after a long day of work and already in her PJ preparing for bedtime) to rush to mine to help us to lock the gate!
She had also attend to my crazy midnight or dawn break last minute insurance requestsssss.. helped to design and build insurance plans that are within our comfortable budget. Most importantly she grow with our family.
Thank you for being so dependable and reliable! I promise more last min requests and crazy stuff for you and counting! | | | Eric Chua, Finance Manager (Client since 2003) I got my first policy from Jacqueline since 2003 after I got my first job since I completed my national service. She was introduced by a friend who had full of compliments of her service and professionalism. Since then, there was no turning back, I bought more policies from her and even for my kids. I did supported a few friends from other insurance companies but none of them is as responsible as Jacq and AIA remains the most efficient in terms of processing any claims.
Over the years, I will not hesitate to introduce Jacq to my peers or families whenever they need help with their insurance.
She is the best agent around and still going strong! Truly appreciate her assistance all these years.
08 Feb 2023 | | | Elaine Lau, Banker (Client since 2019) If I were to describe the impression that Jacqueline gives me, I would say - "I never knew what a good agent is like, until I know Jacq"
I am a non believer of insurance due to bad experiences in my early years. I steer clear when I hear the word insurance. However, Jacq changes everything.
She is not just my trustworthy agent, she is also a friend. Jacq is patience in listening to your needs and gives you timely and the best professional advices for you and your family.
Jacq is highly efficient and always there when you need her. She is extremely helpful, caring, attentive, always with a smile and very knowledgeable in her expertise of work.
Undoubtedly, Jacq is the BEST insurance agent one could ever have, and a true gem in this industry.
You never know how good your insurance and agent are until you need them, and both are outstanding in my case. | | | Michael Wong, Retiree (Client since 2005) 时间过得好快,一转眼快20年过去,Jacq Tan 她是保险销售员,我觉得他好专业在最初期间我我和他买了一份普通的保险买了一年之后他每年都与我跟进和我沟通如有什么需要我要看医生他亦会介绍医生给我亦会带我一齐去医务处直到今天他每年亦会与我联络跟进一切保单资料所以我后来也和他买多两份保单他是保险界的奇才。 | | | Lida & Family, Owner of 169 May Fish Soup (Client since 2016) My best friend recommended Jacqueline to me. As I have existing medical condition she still help me to appeal and got my hospital insurance. She listens to me, plan insurance for me and my family within my budget. Whenever my family need advice on medical issues she is always available, when come to claim she keep everything simple for us. She is a excellent agent and a very good friend for us. | | | Belle Thai, Founder of PaperDoll LIVE (Client since 2007) Jacqueline have been my insurance agent for more than 15 years and still counting. I have to say, Jacq is always very responsive to my policy queries as I do not keep track of my own coverage. Her professionalism is without a doubt, and she’s always meticulous in her work. Definitely trustworthy and patient as she’ll always advice on what I need and what I don’t from my insurance coverage, investments and retirement planning. My insurance claims are also handled very swiftly.
Jacqueline is definitely your “To-Go-For-Person” when it comes to financial planning! 10 thumbs up 👍🏻 👍🏻
