Being a trusted adviser to our affluent clients for over two decades, our wealth management philosophy—making life decisions before money decisions—is rooted in our experience of managing over S$1 billion worth of our clients’ hard-earned assets.
In this week’s Money Wisdom episode, our co-host Isaac chats with Chris about how too much knowledge might actually make us poorer, drawing lessons from a surprising experience at The Ritz, and how knowledge can puff a person up and why letting it do so can be our downfall.
The conversation explores why it’s important not to let knowledge consume us or make us proud, or we risk missing the woods for the trees. Chris also shares how this lesson applies to investing and the importance of first understanding your own investment philosophy.
To better understand the discussion, you may start by reading Chris’ Business Times article.
