Hello Grasshoppa,
Recently I participated in Ringgit & Sense Podcast interview alongside Kevin Neoh (Licensed Financial Planner) from VKA Wealth & Roshan Kanesan, the host of BFM Ringgit & Sense. Being part of Ringgit & Sense definitely feels like a dream to me as I’ve been listening to their podcast over the years. One thing I love about Ringgit & Sense versus other financial podcasts out there is they are catered mainly for Malaysian.
Being a blogger since 2018, I have written almost 150 articles regarding personal finance, investment, life & business. I believe that I am able to add value to the listeners of Ringgit & Sense so I actually approached them mid of August. Roshan replied to me & due to his tight schedule, we conclude that we will revisit this between the end of September to early October. I followed up again in October & after a few email exchanges, we conclude that we will be talking about my Financial Freedom Roadmap article where I am sharing on the roadmap to achieve financial freedom.
Due to a conflicting schedule again, the interview got postponed to December. This time, I was invited to discuss something very similar on my Financial Freedom Roadmap but it will be mainly towards personal finance goal setting for 2021. This is also something that I have written on goal setting & coincidentally, I was also drafting my 2021 personal finance goals. Roshan’s direction for this interview will be based on 2 different individual perspectives, myself and a Licensed Financial Planner & a blogger.
The interview day finally came & we were all doing the interview via Zoom due to the CMCO situation. To be honest, I was really nervous on the interview day. Despite getting the questions 2 days ahead of the interview & preparing the answer 1 day ahead, I had moments where I was lost for words despite the answers being written on my notepad. Most probably because I was too nervous doing this for the first time. It was actually a good session as I got to experience what it’s like behind the scene for Ringgit & Sense podcast & I was also overwhelmed with emotions when Roshan made his usual starting line “Welcome To Ringgit & Sense. This show is all about personal finance & today we have a guest with us today ……..”. This is most probably one of the best experiences in my blogging journey in addition to having all of you reading & supporting BBM since 2018.
Overall the session went well & I had a great time learning from both Roshan & Kevin. Kevin’s way of delivering his message was quite unique & entertaining at the same time. You can follow him via Facebook or check out his website KevinNeoh.my for any consultation related to Financial Planning. I would also like to express my appreciation & gratitude to Roshan for giving me this opportunity. You can also follow his Facebook Page & reach him via his website at RoshanKanesan.com.
