Inspiring talk.
By Mr Peter Tan, some lecturer in NTU and Prudential manager.
Princess P got called up to attend this seminar, and I tagged along. At Amara Hotel near Tanjong Pagar Mrt station. We didn't know what the seminar was about, and upon reaching there was told that it was a fina-preneurship seminar. As in financial entrepreneurship. He earns at least S$1 million a year. Well we were told to sign declaration forms saying that we cannot write down whatever in print and we couldn't take down notes whatsoever. Actually I don't really understand the declaration but since it says I'm liable up to S$50,000 worth of lawsuit charges I wouldn't say much. Just that it was about how we should earn more money so that our loved ones (if not ourselves) can benefit from it etc. And he told us many stories. Very inspiring.
We also got a free movie pass each. All particpants did. Oh yeah!
Second part of the seminar was the part where we realised he was in the Prudential network. He started this peter tan and associates thingy. And he guaranteed those who made it pass the boot camp and remain with him after 24months, will earn S$100,000 per year. Of course the selection is tough etc. Something like 60% pass the camp and then a further % will fall out within the 2 years. I talked to the advisors and they said they don't get sacked. I also found out a lot more of this field. They tried to persuade me to go for the 2day 1 night camp. It costs $50 for food and lodgings, and if I fail the camp i get a refund. Camp dates are tomorrow and monday, next sunday and monday. I hesitated for a long time before rejecting them. Got his namecard though. Doubt I'll call him any time soon.
I believe I'm pretty much at the crossroad of my life. Only a year left before I graduate. That scheme allows undergrads to learn about this field, and they are given free training. Which means when I grad I get a head start should I carve this as my career. The advisors told me to go for the camp to discover myself (cliche line hor hahaha). But I can't bring myself to do it lah, 'cos I'm not THAT interested in this finance and business and marketing and insurance and planning and money matters.
*Snaps fingers*
Ok wake up liao lah. I'll now move on to after the seminar. Princess P bought a new phone, and I chipped in half the money, 'cos the P in Princess P stands for poor sometimes. =x
Tired day. Rarely have I been out from 1pm till 10pm. Soccer tomorrow morning. And in the afternoon it's MPH and food fair. Can't wait to buy the unicurd again. Really!
