I was shocked to learn that Dennis Ng has passed away from a
heart attack after a financial seminar. Just a week ago or so, I saw him with
his wife at a gift shop at the newly-opened Gardens By the Bay. Dennis Ng is
the founder of HousingLoansg.com and has appeared in many TV interviews.
Though I have not attended any of his financial seminars, I
have read one of the books he authored titled “What your school never teach you
about money” which I have shared in a post here.
I have read many financial books on financial planning but I
can hail the book by Dennis Ng as one of the best financial planning books ever
produced by a local author. I also respect Dennis as he makes his first million
from self education on financial matters, hailing from a humble family
background and he is willing to share what he has learnt with others through
his books and seminars.
Life is indeed unpredictable! Hence we must really make full
use of our time on earth.
It seems that in these times, many usually healthy people
fall prey to sudden illness or heart attacks, hence I would like to highlight
to readers here to take health as the first priority in life.
With health comes the ability to work and earn money, the
ability to provide for our family and loved ones and the ability to share some
wonderful moments with our loved ones in the forms of overseas vacations.
To live, to love, to learn and to leave a legacy are what
lives are really about.
Though Dennis has left us, the financial knowledge he left
behind will be immortalised in his many great financial books; these will be
his lasting legacy.
