FINANCIAL EDUCATION IS THE KEY TO PROSPERITY

Image
Congratulations my dear graduates!  15 years ago, I feel what you feel. You are now excited to see the real world and be on your own. After my graduation, I work and have a steady job. My income is growing. But I notice that my expenses are also growing too fast. I resorted to DEBTS. I experience Loan-Payment-Loan Cycle. To the point that I cannot sleep well at night thinking of my finances. I thought that after graduation, everything was alright. But I was wrong. I was so de sperate to learn about financial literacy. I read several financial books. Finally this year, I enroll in the Financial Workshop and I learn all aspect of personal finance from debt management to growing your assets.

Enroll in the Financial Seminar/Workshop.

NEED OF A LONG TERM HEALTH CARE

Last week, I accompanied my son to the ENT Specialist Doctor (Ear, Nose, Throat) in a private clinic in Consolacion, Cebu, Philippines. We were five patients.

She was shocked and worried since her money was only P1,000. Next patient left the clinic upon hearing the 3,500 medical fee. I was moved with pity with the two patients. I thought to mysel f how about in a life threatening situation? Like heart attack or bypass operation. In reality, there is a high cost of medical needs.

SAVINGS IS LIKE A LIFESAVER

Sometime in 2014, I cannot forget this incident. My son had no more milk to drink. I pulled out my wallet and it had only 50 pesos for my fare. I borrowed money to my friends but they refused because they also needed the money. I inquired my Landbank ATM card but no available balance because it was 2 days before the payday. I went to my cooperative to secure a loan but I was denied because I used all the loan windows. I got stressed where to ge t the money to buy milk. Then, I remembered that I had a cooperative savings passbook in my drawer. Lo and behold, I saw an available balance of 500 pesos. I went to the coop again and withdrew the 400 pesos. I share this story so that you can learn from me and for you to start your savings program. Savings is a like a lifesaver. Someday, it will save you.
