Health Span: The Missing Piece in Retirement Planning – The Brain Behind (S3E24)

Being a trusted adviser to our affluent clients for over two decades, our wealth management philosophy—making life decisions before money decisions—is rooted in our experience of managing over S$1 billion worth of our clients’ hard-earned assets.

In this week’s Money Wisdom episode, our co-host Isaac chats with Chris about the critical role of health span in retirement planning and how it is often overlooked. Saving for your ‘health plan’ in retirement is just as important as building your wealth plan, particularly if leaving behind a legacy aligns with your life goals.

You can read Chris’s article in The Business Times on this topic here: https://providend.com/health-span-missing-piece-retirement-planning/

Stay tuned for our next episode, where Chris interviews Dr Peng Chen, our Senior Advisor and Director at Providend!
