You work hard and save
You maybe even have some money sitting in the bank, but you're not sure it's actually doing anything for you.
🤯
You’re overwhelmed
You know investing is important (everyone says so), but every time you try to look into it, you get overwhelmed and click away.

You think the investment industry charges such high fees and want to try a different path.
Good news.
You don't have to be an expert to start investing confidently.
You just need clear steps and building blocks, which I’ll provide in this course.

Why learn from Tim?
I caught the investing bug as a teenager and I’ve spent over 15 years in the finance industry (ex-Schroders and CGS International) working across retail, asset management, and private wealth covering both Asian and global markets.
I’m passionate about helping people take control of their finances and building wealth through long-term investing. Too often, I’ve seen bad “advice” given in order to drum up revenue for companies’ bottom lines (and not in the interest of clients).
You may have come across me on MoneyFM 89.3, Channel News Asia, SGX Academy, Lianhe Zaobao, Seedly, and The Financial Coconut, talking about everything finance-related, from credit cards and air miles to stock markets and dividend investing.
I’m known for breaking down complex financial topics into something that’s fun and easy to digest but, most importantly, actionable Finally, I am not associated with any financial institution in Singapore so what you get from me is an unbiased/no-BS take on real investing.

Don’t wait another year to “figure it out”
You don’t need to read 10 books or follow 5 influencers.
You don’t need to guess or gamble.
You need a system you trust and a teacher who gets it.
Investing Made Simple gives you both.
FAQs
Is this really for beginners?
If you’ve never invested before, this is perfect for you. If you’ve dabbled but feel unsure, it’ll fill in the gaps. If you already invest through an advisor but your returns and experience are sub-paro, this will give you a new option to explore.
What if I can’t make it to a live webinar session?
All sessions will be recorded and shared with you for on-demand access.
Will you be recommending specific ETFs?
I’ll walk through examples (like the S&P 500 Index or global funds) and teach you how to choose based on your risk appetite, not just tell you what to buy.
Will I have to open an account right away?
Nope. You’ll learn how, but there’s no pressure. The goal is confidence, not urgency.
Do I need a lot of money to start?
No. You can start with as little as $100/month. This course is about getting the habit right before you start.
Is this a good time to invest?
There’s never a perfect time. The right time is when you understand what you’re doing, and that’s exactly what this course helps with.
