"The Wealth Management Center is an endeavor so professionally run, made even more so by its Chief Knowledge Officers. Of particular mention is Mr Ricky G So, whose lectures are a mix of decades-long experience, credible anecdotes, and the sort of candor that is so difficult to find these days. The finer points of finance become understandable without sacrificing either nuance or process because of Ricky's classroom management and training skills. By taking the points of view of finance professionals, salespersons, and customers, he consistently presents a compelling case for the continued professionalization of the finance industry and consumer education.”

"As a financial advisor/consultant, I want not only to know about insurance, I also want to give advice to clients on where to put their investments exactly. After I enrolled in Sir Ricky’s Investment Club class, I can now understand the fundamental and technical side of investing at its very core. Not only can I advise confidently now because I have him as my mentor, but I do my own investments as well. In fact, in following one of his advices that he told me to invest into, I gained 50% in just 4 weeks. Looking forward to more learnings and guidance with you in your new endeavor, “The FAST Exchange.”

“Power of Questions gave me a fresh perspective in approaching and opening conversations with a client. In addition to the current scripts and handling objection techniques, PoQ actually helps by putting the client and the advisor on the same page. The technique of asking the right questions instead of telling about the features and benefits actually makes the client think along the same line with the advisor and vice versa. When a client answers a question, it makes him/her a collaborator of the solution. It does not land as a hard sell nor a power close. But it is a subtle but powerful conceptual selling technique. It’s not scripted but a proactive questioning technique, which leads the client and the advisor to the right solution.”

“I have gained so much insights from Ricky So for almost more than a decade of knowing him. I would consider him as one of my mentors when it comes to understanding Investment. Deep learning such as this is difficult to achieve except through the ongoing process of mentoring. I wholeheartedly recommend both the process in general, and Ricky as a mentor in particular. It has made me a better Investor, Financial Wealth Planner, and now that I'm handling advisers, I can now share with them the knowledge & skills I've learned from Ricky all these years.”
