Participant Reviews

The Money Inventory course was the first time I had sat down and looked at everything in one place — EPF, savings, insurance, ASB. It sounds simple, but I had been putting it off for years. The bound document at the end was surprisingly useful. I still refer to it.

Petaling Jaya, Selangor
I had been holding unit trusts for twelve years and reading my annual statements without really understanding them. The Fund Factsheet course changed that. The sessions on expense ratios and how fees compound over time were the most practically useful. I am more careful now about what I am actually comparing when I look at different products.

Cheras, Kuala Lumpur
I was initially hesitant about the Estate programme because I thought it would feel morbid or be full of sales pressure. It was neither. The facilitator and the notary were both very matter-of-fact about it — just information, clearly explained. The session on faraid was something I had always felt uncertain about and it answered most of my questions directly.

Damansara, Selangor
Good content and a well-run group. I had expected the pace to feel slow but the spacing between sessions actually worked well — it gave me time to look at my own documents between meetings. The small group made it easy to ask questions. I would have liked one more session at the end for discussion, but overall worthwhile.

Setia Alam, Shah Alam
I completed both the Money Inventory and the Estate programme. There was no pressure to sign up for anything during either course. The facilitators were knowledgeable and patient. The personal binder from the estate programme is something I will use for years. My wife has asked me about doing the same course, which says something.

The Money Inventory was a good starting point. I had always thought I had a reasonable understanding of my finances, but the structured format showed me several areas I had not thought about carefully — particularly the insurance coverage side. The facilitator was thorough without being overwhelming. I intend to do the fund reading course next year.

Participant Journeys
Three accounts of what participants came in with, what they worked through, and where they ended up.
The Situation
A retired civil servant in her early 60s with savings across several accounts, three different insurance policies from different decades, and no clear picture of how it all connected. She had never consolidated the information in one place.
The Programme
She completed the Money Inventory course over four weeks. By the third session, she had identified two insurance policies with overlapping coverage and one that had lapsed without her realising. The final bound document became a reference she used in a subsequent conversation with a licensed financial advisor.
The Outcome
She came into the programme feeling uncertain. She left with a clear written record of her financial position — something she described as having less to do with money and more to do with simply being organised. She enrolled in the Estate programme eight months later.
Money Inventory · Participant from Kuala Lumpur · Duration: 4 weeks
The Situation
A secondary school teacher in his late 40s who had been investing in unit trusts through an agent for ten years, reinvesting distributions without reviewing the underlying fund documents. He had no clear understanding of the fees he was paying or how to compare the funds he held.
The Programme
He joined the Fund Factsheet reading course. The most useful sessions for him were the ones covering management expense ratios and fee compounding — he had not understood how significantly these affected long-term returns. He brought his own factsheets to session five and worked through them with the facilitator.
The Outcome
By the end of the course, he was reading his quarterly statements with a different kind of attention. He did not make any immediate decisions about his holdings — the programme does not advise on that — but he felt he now had the basis to ask better questions of his agent.
Fund Factsheet · Participant from Petaling Jaya · Duration: 6 weeks
The Situation
A couple in their 50s — husband and wife, both working — who jointly owned two properties and had accumulated savings and EPF across multiple accounts. They had no will. When asked what would happen to their assets if either died intestate, neither could answer clearly.
The Programme
They attended the Estate and Legacy programme together, across five months. The notary session on joint property ownership and intestacy was the most directly relevant to their situation. They also had questions about wasiat and the application process that the notary addressed in detail.
The Outcome
They left the programme with a closing binder and a much clearer view of what they needed to do — and what they needed a lawyer for. The programme did not replace legal advice, but it gave them the vocabulary and the confidence to seek it on informed terms.
