Starting 2025 Right: Money Wisdom for Living a Good Life This Year (S4E1)

Welcome to the first episode of Providend’s Money Wisdom Podcast Season 4! We hope everyone is looking forward to what we have in store for you this year.

As the leading fee-only wealth advisory firm in Asia, we have been guiding our clients for over two decades, encouraging them to make life decisions first, before money decisions. For this season, we will have various mini-series covering topics such as Finding Your Ikigai, Legacy Beyond Wealth, Milestones by Decade, and our classic favourite, The Brain Behind, where we interview Chris about his Business Times’ articles.

At Providend, we believe that wisdom with money isn’t about maximising returns. Rather, it is about understanding your ikigai goals and making wise financial decisions to support them. That’s the essence of money wisdom. This is why we have decided to focus on these mini-series topics, to support you on your journey towards living a good life. Do look forward to these podcast episodes in the weeks to come!
