After going for some drinks at Clarke Quay a few nights ago, as many other Singaporeans would, I pulled out my handphone and started looking for a Grab home. The surge was a little crazy, however still I had to go home, thus I still tried booking for a Grab and patiently waited. Despite the high surges, no Grab driver was available. The same happened for Gojek and Comfort app.
Crazy surges, yet no cab.
No cab, no home.
You get the idea.
Grab app showing, “Anytime now…”.
Then, I noticed empty Taxis looking hard for passengers as they normally do on a weekday night. I was replying to texts, so I let the first Taxi go. Another Taxi came, and slowed down when he saw me, hoping to pick another potential passenger.
These Taxis gave me a very precious life lesson.
"I was looking at the wrong places."
The fanciful apps in a Digital age, did not provide a solution for my immediate need.
There was no available driver despite a higher price tag for their services.
This is the same for many other areas in our lives, be it in relationships or people we want as our clients.
Thankfully, all my clients are financially responsible. I never had to compel anybody into forging a business-partnership with me and I know I am their choice Adviser.
All my clients know that they want
💎 an Investor as their Financial Adviser
- one who really knows investments, instead of just another financial-product salesperson.
💎 To be Updated
- about the market trends and what to expect ahead before they happen in the markets, rather than being told afterwards what has happened.
💎 To be Assured
- in the knowledge that most of the time their investments are outperforming many other portfolios.
The Taxis have taught me, that those who are not a right match, no good outcome will happen no matter how much you stay in aim of them; and that there will always be other alternatives for what is a good fit.
I have tremendous value and I AM WORTH IT.
And so are you!
