The biggest risks to your personal finances are often those that you least expect to happen. But if you do not protect yourself against them, everything you've amassed in your journey towards financial freedom and early retirement could come to an end overnight. Learn from SG Budget Babe as she shares about the types of insurance to get if you wish to prevent your F.I.R.E. plans from being wrecked. | Ms. Dawn Cher, Founder, SG Budget Babe |

Every great financial journey begins with a single step, and for many Singaporeans, CPF is the vessel that carries them toward financial independence. More than just a retirement safety net, your CPF can be the wind in your sails, propelling you towards a million-dollar milestone. This was the path charted by 1M65 Founder, Mr. Loo Cheng Chuan, who together with his wife, crossed S$1 million in CPF savings in 2018.
Learn from his personal experiences and valuable lessons on investing, and how to work towards financial security while maintaining a simple, purposeful lifestyle. | Mr. Loo Cheng Chuan, Founder, 1M65 Movement |
14:55 - 15:15 | Setting Up A Holistic Estate Plan with LPA, ACP & AMD
Life’s journey is full of unexpected twists, but with careful planning, you can steer your future with confidence. Just as every great voyager prepares for the unknown, setting up a holistic estate plan ensures that your financial and healthcare decisions remain in trusted hands, no matter what lies ahead.
This session will guide you through three essential tools to safeguard your future:
Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) – Entrusting a reliable person to manage your affairs, if you are unable to do so. Advance Care Planning (ACP) – Defining your healthcare preferences so that your loved ones can honour your wishes. Advance Medical Directive (AMD) – Ensuring your medical choices are respected, even when you are unable to voice them. | Ms. Low Seow Ling, Managing Director, Emre Legal LLC |
15:15 - 15:35 | Legacy Planning: Passing Down More Than Just Wealth
A true legacy goes beyond just passing down wealth. It’s also about ensuring that your values, vision and impact endure for generations. While estate planning focuses on financial distribution, legacy planning takes a broader approach, incorporating personal values, philanthropy and family governance to create a lasting imprint.
In this session, we will share - How to align wealth preservation with personal values and long-term aspirations. - Key tools for estate planning, including wills, trusts, CPF nominations and healthcare directives. - The importance of family governance in ensuring your vision is carried forward.
Join the session as we explore how to go beyond inheritance and craft a legacy that truly reflects who you are. | Mr. Patrick Tan, TEP, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Fortis Law Corporation |

| Mr. He Ruiming and Mr. Goh Wei Choon, Founders, The Woke Salaryman |
16:30 - 17:00 | I Am On F.I.R.E.
The journey to Financial Independence and Retire Early (F.I.R.E.) isn’t just about saving aggressively. To achieve success, we need to use the financial tools that are available to us to build security and freedom. Insurance, often only seen as a protection tool, can be a powerful asset in this journey, by helping individuals to grow their wealth, safeguard against risks and accelerate their journey towards financial independence.
