Career in Investment
Management.
Nobody actually wants to hard-sell. The consultants who build great practices are the ones who genuinely believe what they recommend can change a life. That's what I look for — and what I build.

The Reality
Most careers have a ceiling. Most people hit it and never talk about it.
Your salary is fixed.
No matter how hard you work, you take home the same number at the end of the month. The ceiling is built in.
You're building someone else's business.
Every deal you close, every relationship you build — it stays with the company, not with you.
The people doing well aren't talking.
Nobody tells you how the financial industry actually works, or that there's a way to earn more by genuinely helping more.
There's a different way. A practice you own. Income that scales with your effort. A mentor who's walked the path and built the system. That's what this is.

The System
How we build you from zero to independent.
Exploration
A two-way assessment. Daniel evaluates whether he can genuinely groom you to your best potential. You evaluate whether this is the right team for you. If you have what it takes, he'll convince you to join. If not, he'll be honest about that too.
→ Clarity — for both of us.
Associate Development Programme
Daniel personally coaches your advisory process — how you speak, present, and connect with clients. You also get full access to AWM's internationally recognised training on Skool, winner of the Asia Digital Agency Leader of the Year finalist award.
→ You carry yourself differently in a client meeting.
Weekly Mentorship
One-on-one sessions with Daniel every week, alongside ongoing company training. You're never figuring it out alone.
→ Consistent momentum, not bursts of effort.
Independence & HNW Planning
Once your foundation is built, the focus shifts up. Estate planning, retirement planning, legacy planning, business succession. Serving high-net-worth clients. The work gets more sophisticated — and so does the income.
→ A practice nobody can take from you.

Nobody actually wants to hard-sell. The people who build great practices here are the ones who genuinely believe what they're recommending can change a life. That belief is what I look for — and what I build.
I started this career in September 2020 — not because I had a plan, but because I needed to understand money. My parents had both lost their jobs. After a rough stretch, I went broke too.
I began learning everything I could about building wealth, started sharing it with friends, and watched them make real changes from a single conversation. That's when I knew this was what I was supposed to do.
I didn't sell the conventional way. I just treated every client the way I wanted to be treated. By 25, I had crossed seven figures in income and owned my own private property and car.
Today, I've built a team of 50+ consultants — many of them MDRT qualifiers, Double MDRT and COT qualifiers. Last year, I earned $750k+. And the best part? My associates are on track to doing even better than me.
But the number I'm most proud of isn't mine. It's Glen's — a 23-year-old undergraduate with no sales background, who earned $300,000 in his first year on my team. He didn't get lucky. He just refused to stop.
This is my gma, and this was what I told myself everyday in my first year – 我们成功的速度要比我们父母老的速度快
FAQ
Honest answers.
The fastest path to your licence is around 2 months — 4 licensing papers. Glen completed all of them and signed his first 15+ clients in his very first month. Results depend entirely on how fast you move.
The benchmark on my team is $100,000. The ceiling? Glen did $300,000 in his first year — a real number, from a real person, who started with no background in finance or sales. Individual results vary based on effort and market conditions.
No. Brian was a Biological Sciences undergrad when I first met him. Glen hadn't even started university yet. That said, if you do have relevant experience — like Nick, who came from charity sales — I'll help you channel it properly and move you up to serving high-net-worth clients faster.
I work out a structured salary with you personally, based on your goals and your commitment level. It's not a fixed number — we build it around what you need to focus fully on building your practice.
You need to be fully committed — but full-time looks different for everyone. I personally started in my second year of university and treated both as full-time commitments simultaneously. What matters is your mindset, not your timetable.
We start Phase 1 — the Exploration. You'll watch a series of videos and write reflections so I can understand how you think. I'll also arrange 2–3 meetings with people across the team so your questions get answered honestly, and so you can see whether you genuinely connect with the culture. It's a two-way assessment — no pressure either way.
“Where you start doesn't matter. What your background is doesn't matter. If you're willing to do what most people aren't — the result is available to you. Not guaranteed. Available.”
