In Memory of Mr Dennis Ng, Late Founder of MasterYourFinance (1969 – 2012)

MasterYourFinance represented the next phase of Dennis' life when he devoted more time and effort to educate the public and to raise the level of financial literacy in Singapore and the region.

Dennis' mission and purpose in life was to teach others what he learned, so as to raise their financial literacy and help them reach financial freedom.

A strong believer in the concept of the difference between Good Debt and Bad Debt, Dennis had proven through his personal experience as well as those of his clients that if a person knows how he can use good debt wisely, he can become richer without taking on more risks. He was invited to share his expertise on Using Good Debt Wisely on Channel News Asia’s “Cents and Sensibility” and Channel 8’s “Focus” TV Program.

Dennis believed that there are many routes to achieve success. To him, "Give and you shall receive" is something he stood by all these years. This works for both business and life. When you are able to provide someone with service or opportunity, it will eventually result in you getting either money or happiness. Either way, you are set to gain something but always give without looking for a return. 

MYF Forum
MasterYourFinance forum serves as a remembrance of the contributions by Dennis in his journey to provide financial education to the public. The forum is a storage of resources contributed by many of his students. The discussions and sharing among Dennis and his students are a wealth of knowledge that some may still find the information relevant for reference today.
