Eric had the world at his feet.He had gone from selling prawn noodles at his father's hawker stall in Singapore to becoming the Managing Director of UBS Investment Bank.So why did he throw it all away?

How does a shy boy with no social skills, who failed his mathematics & went to school smelling of prawns every day... become the Managing Director of UBS?Just ask Eric Sim.The truth is:❌ Eric didn't just fail his maths.He also failed his English Literature & History papers and had to work at his father's prawn noodle shop before going to school.❌ He bombed his first job in FX Sales role at DBS Bank.❌ He failed all his job interviews in London (which he attended wearing a chicken suit!).But Eric's story doesn't end there.He:✅ Figured out how to leverage on his unique background, i.e. as the son of a hawker & bartender, to build a unique personal brand & score his first job;✅ Found an amazing boss, Prasanna Thombre, who believed in him & gave him all the international opportunities he needed; and✅ Built relationships that meant that his future jobs were all referred to him.Eric learned very quickly that you need to do more than just your job to thrive.And we talked about the cultural nuances of working in different Asian cities (including Ulaanbaatar!), what it meant to be the Managing Director, why he would go to the same restaurant x4 a week!! & how he networks to build the relationships he needs.Highlights:2.52: Forced to drink oat milk & selling prawn noodles5:27 Carving potatoes was a lie!6:43 Developing an inferiority complex (+ learning everything!)9:16 Sending an unsolicited application to DBS Bank12:35 Restarting his career at Lancaster University14:36 Wearing a chicken suit for interviews at London's financial banks16:15 The Asian Financial Crisis & Prasanna Thombre20:53 Moving to Citi23:41 Working in Shanghai & witnessing the liberalisation of China's financial sector24:52 Chinese business culture25:55 Cigarettes28:09 The importance of being friends with all the chefs30:31 Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia31:38 Why Eric keeps getting referrals for jobs32:33 Why Citi was Eric's dream job35:09 Did the wealthy look down at Eric?37:11 Why being a hawker's son helped Eric as a banker40:14 Meeting Hawker Chan42:53 Becoming Managing Director at UBS (investment banking)44:30 Was Eric a successful MD?

BIO: Eric Sim is the author of Small Actions: Leading Your Career To Big Success, giving 66 actionable tips to help one achieve career success. STORY: Eric bought a condo with the hopes of selling it at a higher price. Unfortunately, the government changed, affecting the demand for condos. Eric is yet to sell the property or rent it for income. LEARNING: Don't let your past successes blind you when investing. Identify your buyer before you even buy that real estate.   “Never expect 100% of your investments to make money. Sometimes you lose, sometimes you win.”Eric Sim  Guest profilehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/simeric/ (Eric Sim) is the author of https://amzn.to/3dO0EQO (Small Actions: Leading Your Career To Big Success), giving 66 actionable tips to help one achieve career success. He is a successful banker, having worked with Citi in Singapore, Shanghai, and Hong Kong before joining UBS Investment Bank as a managing director. Worst investment everEric bought a massive piece of property north of Singapore. It was a 2,400-square foot home. It did well because demand was high. One year later, Eric decided to buy another property. The prices had gone up this time, and he paid a lot more for the second property. There had been plans to construct a high-speed rail from Singapore to Malaysia. This saw properties in Malaysia increase in demand. About three years later, the Malaysian government changed. The new government put the high-speed rail plans on hold. This saw property prices drop due to low demand and high supply. Eric tried to sell his property but couldn't as there was no demand. He wanted to rent it out, but it was just not worth it because prepping the property to rent it out would cost 1-2 years of rental income. He is still holding onto the property. Lessons learnedDon't let your past successes blind you when investing. Before you buy property, seriously think about the demand. Who will buy that property when you want to sell it one or two years later? Never expect 100% of your investments to make money. Sometimes you lose, sometimes you win, so don't be too hard on yourself. Don't let one lousy investment ruin your life. Andrew's takeawaysSometimes investing in condos can be a trap where you just get into it because you're excited and then get stuck in it because nobody will buy it. Identify your buyer before you even buy that real estate property. Actionable adviceDo your due diligence and make the correct type of comparison. List down the facts and be your own devil's advocate.

This week's Moonlighter goes way back with Moonlight Tim. Eric Stein was a sophomore leader for the Iowa Central Tritons when Tim joined the team as a freshman. Even as a 19-year-old, Eric Stein's baseball IQ made it clear that his future was in coaching if he wanted it. Roughly 18 years after that first meeting, Tim sits down with Eric to talk about Stein's progression from player to head coach for those same Tritons.   Eric Stein grew up on a farm outside Portsmouth, Iowa, and attended Harlan Community High School. After a successful high school baseball career, Stein moved to the big city of Fort Dodge to play for Iowa Central during the 2004 and 2005 seasons. After considerable success as an infielder, including recognition for his defensive skills, Stein played for Grand View University. When his playing days were over, he took a call from Rick Pedersen to come back as an assistant coach. Stein took over as a head coach in the 2018-2019 season and has had consistent success over the last few years, racking up 75 wins so far.   Tim and Eric both have a passion for Iowa Central and junior college baseball. This interview focuses on the world of JUCO baseball from the players' and coaches' perspectives. They cover everything from recruiting kids to a 2-year school to the impact of Eric Sim.    Tim takes Eric through his eight beliefs about success in junior college baseball. These nuggets of wisdom are explained from both the veteran player angle and the current skipper. Tim's list ranges from staying out of trouble to ensuring your attitude and work ethic keep you on the path to success. Stein has to recruit young men to Fort Dodge to help his program take the next step by moving on to 4-year schools when their time in JUCO is done. His success so far shows that he knows what it takes to win at the junior college level, but maybe Tim's list could be the Moonlight bump to help Stein and the Tritons bring home that world series ring.

Eric Sim AKA The King of JUCO ( @Eric Sim ) joins us on The Show in Scottsdale, AZ this week to talk his story from bar manager to content creator, the JUCO Bandit Mindset, and the current state of baseball. Was a FIRE episode. ESIM is that guy. Love you all. LETS RIDE!

My guest in this episode is Eric Sim. A key opinion leader on LinkedIn, Eric Sim, CFA, is the author of the book Small Actions: Leading Your Career to Big Success. Previously, when based in Hong Kong, Sim served as a managing director at UBS Investment Bank and an adjunct associate professor of finance at HKUST. He founded the Institute of Life with a mission to train young professionals to be successful at work and in life. I met Eric Sim one year ago when I left my corporate career and needed a coach to help me navigate my social media presence. I saw a clubhouse event he was organizing. I checked his Linked profile and could not believe that he had more than 2 million followers. I registered, and he invited me to ask my questions on the stage during the event. This is how we connected. In the following months, Eric helped me crystalize my strategy and fine-tune my goals. I established many valuable connections with his help. And he gave me the confidence to start writing on LinkedIn. I have never met Eric in person, but I always wanted to share his story – from his humble beginnings to the powerhouse he is today. He made the portfolio career “a thing.” When we were recording, I asked him to walk me through the stages of preparation and execution when he was leaving banking. The answer was not what I expected! Eric said the first thing he did was design his new company's logo and print the business cards. He knew he was ready to leave the banking job when he confidently handed out these new cards, accepting his new future. His three key takeaways for success in any career pivot are three “S”: - Build your Social capital well before you need it - Build your Social media presence - Build your Social network Please tune in to hear his fascinating journey. Happy listening!

Our guest today is Eric Sim. The header on his LinkedIn profile shows a banker, lecturer, speaker and writer, but he is actually much more. Eric is a proponent of the portfolio career, a topic for which he has become a thought leader and the most followed CFA charter holder globally with almost 3 million followers on LinkedIn. Based in Singapore, Eric reached the pinnacle of his career as a Managing director at UBS Investment Bank. He quickly realized that he could offer the world much more than being an investment banker and left his position at UBS. From there, he embarked on the portfolio career, founding the Institute of life, becoming a professor, a prominent speaker and now a global thought leader teaching others how to have a portfolio career of their own. In today's episode, we start with Eric's personal journey, how small actions can lead to big returns and the relevance of personal branding for anyone at any stage in their career. We then dive into details and tactics of personal branding, followed by a discussion on the three sources of capital (financial, human, and social) and the outsized returns that can be generated by investing in social capital. Our hosts today are Steve Curley, CFA and Marina Hayes, CFA. Please enjoy the episode. Follow the CFA Society of Orlando on Twitter and LinkedIn.

Episode 33 Season 2 is out with Eric Sim. Eric is currently pursuing a challenge called “95 mph or die”. His goal is to throw 95 mph twice in 1 session both have to be strikes off a mound. The prize is that Driveline will donate $5000 to Eric’s help a minor leaguer campaign. Eric was drafted by the San Francisco Giants in the 27th round of the 2010 MLB Draft from the University of South Florida. Before the University of South Florida, Eric played Junior College baseball at Colby Community College. Eric is very active on social media including Twitter and Instagram. He is very honest with the content he puts out and it can rub people the wrong way sometimes. Eric started training to train at the near that end of 2019 to get back in shape. He shows people that training is fun but you have to be consistent and love the overall process. Eric is trying to promote kids to work hard for something and not look for the easy way out. He is trying to be an example to kids in 2020 by showing kids that you can train anywhere in the world and still become great. Eric is a brutal honest person and is a must follow on social media about baseball and JUCO. If you want to see someone with a passion to get better everyday just look at Eric’s content. I really enjoyed talking with Eric about Junior College and why it can be a player’s best decision of their career to attend a JUCO. Please join me in listening to Eric and “Always Remember Be Yourself”.

This time we sat down with Eric Sim (@esim3400), a former college and minor league baseball player and current bar manager in British Colombia, and I was pumped to have this conversation because I’ve been following Eric on Twitter for a while. Even if you aren’t an avid fan of baseball, Eric is a great person to follow for the DGAF mentality. He also speaks on many experiences that apply to toughness and having fun, even outside the world of sports. In this conversation, Eric discusses why minor league baseball players deserve to get paid more, what it was like growing up in the unforgiving South Korean Little League System, the power of sharing unfiltered thoughts on twitter, and more.

Roy and Donavan talk to former Minor Leaguer Eric Simm about his journey from playing baseball as a youth in Korea to the life in the Minor Leagues.

“When people talk about grinding, I don't think they really don't know what that means” From Korea to Canada, Kansas to Florida, behind the plate to on the mound, Eric Sim has seen it all and loves to tell the story. Eric Sim uses his Twitter and Instagram accounts (@ESim3400) to give his behind the scenes take on life in the minor leagues and just about anything else. And these are some hot, honest, uncensored takes. Eric shares stories about playing baseball when it was fun and didn't pay much and then a few years where he wasn't having fun and still wasn't getting paid much. Tim and Eric cover the culture of baseball at all different levels. After high school in Canada, Eric was lightly recruited and took an offer at a Kansas JUCO. After a really strong sophomore campaign, he was recruited to the University of South Florida and then was drafted by the Giants in the 27th round. Eric had a 6-year minor league career. His playing days are an open book. Eric shares about catching some big league pitchers, struggling at the plate, not cutting it as a pitcher, and then losing his passion for going to the ballpark.               What was your worst day? “Everyday” Eric's minor league career bounced around a few years and he had the defensive talent but, in his words, his offense sucked too much to make it. Eric has a really honest perspective on his own play, life in the minors, and indy ball. Tim and Eric dive into his career, his social media presence now, and they are sure to set a new podcast record for using certain words! Enjoy Episode 81… but be sure to listen with headphones on.
