When was the last time you received kindness from somebody? When was the last time you extended an act of kindness to someone else, and to what end? As it turns out, there can be tremendous merits and outcomes in paying forward a kindness received with a good deed to somebody else, especially when done out of gratitude. The concept of "Paying It Forward" is nothing new, but in our world, I believe we could do with more compassion and selflessness as it brings out the best in us.

The Art of Paying it Forward Without Spending a Dime

When we pay it forward we commit an act of selflessness that transcends our connection to other humans on the planet, elevating the human experience in a positive way. Whether it’s a showing of kindness, faith, or even compassion, it all makes a difference and can potentially trigger a chain reaction of reciprocated behavior.

The Power of Altruism

Classical economics adopts a model that says people are primarily driven by material self-interest. Political science assumes that people are driven to maximize their power. But this worldview is clearly wrong. In real life, the push of selfishness is matched by the pull of empathy and altruism. This is not Hallmark card sentimentalism but scientific fact: As babies our neural connections are built by love and care. We have evolved to be really good at cooperation and empathy. We are strongly motivated to teach and help others.

Alice Eliza Koh, Retiree

I was introduced to Alex by my sister who greatly appreciated his good customer service, detailed explanation, good followup and recommendations, patience and always approachable and who readily make himself available to meet to explain the policy or whatever understanding needed . I found him to be good and wished I had known him earlier so I could be wiser in my purchase of health and fund policies that meet my needs and not the need of the agent for better commission Though busy, he still followup and only 1 call away whenever I have issues to discuss Recently I called for meeting to discuss my Prudential funds and to better understand the recent host of cancer related coverage on the daily news. He not only came to meet promptly upon my call but came prepared with printouts and presentation. I am impressed with his service and has no hesitation to recommend him to whoever are looking for a good insurance consultant/ advisor

Palanivelu Hotel Concierge Manager

I have known Alexander only for a short while but he has done a great many service both as an adviser as well as a friend. I have seen him being there to help my late friend's family Michael Chua to go through the difficult and trying times. He made sure all the insurance matters are settle and the family was able to focus on grieving and putting their life back together. He listens to them and help them whenever possible. He even help me with personal problems by finding solutions to resolve them. When I had trouble processing medical claims, he would come over and sort it out and be the key link between himself, the hospital and Prudential. I would be unable to resolve it if Alex had not been there. I know I can count on him to help me understand and resolve the challenges I face. A good agent and friend in times of need.
