First touch with Public Mutual

Today, first time I attend the Public Mutual training class, a very good exposure and great experience. But first, I was trapped in the traffic for one and half hour from Kota Damansara to Public Bank tower at KL in the morning. In the training class, I met up with a corporate accountant, an admin, 2 insurance agents(who joined few other MLM include Excel, Amway and etc) and sales person and one MMU graduate who work in sonny ericson at KLCC as teleco engineer. There's even someone from Kuala Lipis who come all over to KL to attend this course :) Last but not least, few oldies who at their late 50 or 40.

What the hack all of us attending this class to be Public Mutual Fund agent? When the trainer asked what's our vision as public mutual fund agent, everyone said to have financial freedom in future, have more flexible time, do not need to work, travel around the world :) Guess these are everyone's dream :)

What surprising me is that, there's someone raise his hand and said, "In 5 years time, Malaysia going to have another millionaire! ". Sound astonishing right? Should give him a big crap of applauses for his great determination. Well, a million is it a lots? It is really a lots for the majority people in Malaysia I assume. But think on this way, owning a shop lot in KL or PJ is not consider rich people, everybody agree right? The price of the 3-storey shop lot at Kepong cost u 1.3m, Bandar Puteri, Puchong cost you 2m+. I am not mention on the corner lot which can be at least twice of the price of those intermediate shop.

So I start thinking, become millionaire with owning few shop in KL is it really can make oneself into financial freedom? I personally don't think so!

For me, as an engineer who previously have great dream to develop a chip that worldwide is using give me more satisfaction. But I am not doing it in my current job! That's a big trouble! I do not find job satisfaction now... Hence in order to find satisfaction in life, I joined Public Mutual as my second alternative career, because I really don't know where I can go if I want to jump in my next job that will satisfy my dream. Go Singapore or Penang is certainly not an option for me temporary as I think my mum is my everything at the moment. So in fact, Public Mutual is also my back up plan :)
