From Selling Insurance to Building a Mr. Money TV Media Empire

After leaving a lucrative career selling insurance policies, Peter took a leap into the world of new media in late 2018 and started Mr. Money TV. The mission: to demystify the complex world of finance for the average Malaysian through accessible and engaging content. However this move was not without its risks.

From the early days of balancing multiple jobs to keep the venture alive to their 177,000 subscribers on the main YouTube, on this edition of Open For Business we explore the inception and growth of Mr. Money TV along with Peter's ambitions for the future, and appetite to build a new media network.

On top of this, we will also dive into how he's managing the ever evolving new media landscape while trying to create a sustainable business model.

Mr. Money TV is a financial literacy media brand owned by Finlit Media Tech Group.
