So before we do that let us assess ourselves if we are ready to quit our job. 1. Consider your decision because one bad day must not impact our decision.

Asset Perspective

What is Asset? In an accounting aspect it says here that an Asset in a simple term is a property owned by a person or a company. So in short, these are the things you claim that you own and in some cases, these are the properties documented under your name and it is solely or partly ownes by you. For example are your houses and cars.  But in a building wealth perspective or point of view, Assets should not be just anything or property but Assets should be income ingenerating by themselves and you can generate income from them and not expenses only. A house will only be an asset if you lease it and make a constant income from rental fees you collect. So basically, an asset should be a property you own that generates income constantly and will not cost you more expenses.

What to do when you are not feeling well or under the weather

When not feeling well, you must first assess yourself first how bad your feeling or if you can continue your day normally without having to risk yourself or you already need proper assistance and care especially when you are living alone to prevent further risks.  If it is caused by an illness, you must consult a doctor to provide you further information and know-how proper care to prevent it from getting worse. If medication is advised, take it after every meal to have your body a support system to help with the medicine prescribed. Fruits and vegetables should be consumed because they are rich in nutrients to support better immune system.

Road to Financial Freedom

Money may not be key to happiness, it's surely is one of the pavements to a brighter and a happier future. Considering that everything today is and can only obtain by having such amount of money. Even that fresh cool air that was free yesterday was now fancy due to pollution and air conditioning or that clean water is now bought on a bottle. Money is really an essential for living today and most certainly we don't just want work, pay bills and die. Wouldn't we? So here are the basic surefire money tips that I can guarantee will make a change to your lifestyle and your money habits.   1. Earn as much as you can. This means having more than one income generating option other than your job. Having a job may give you the fulfillment to pay bills and buy you the necessities you need but are you really financially capable when you get fired or get sick? Well I think we both know the answer to that and it is a big NO. And no I don't mean having two jobs, but if you real...

Getting a Degree with No Money

While K-12 is now implemented here in the Philippines and most countries around the Globe, most  High School graduates are not going to college and took the advantage of earning money instead. Should you go to college and get a degree for yourself? While it is true that even a college degree will not 100% land you on a job and get you a good high paying job right away as a degree holder such as myself and a very competitive industry we now live in. It will still be a great advantage to the majority of people who only have a High School diploma. May not sound efficient but at least you are one step ahead to getting hired. If money is the problem in such cases as I did when I entered college, I advise you to get a scholarship and not a loan as much as possible because scholarships are free financial assistance while you are studying and the only perk is that you must maintain a specific average. There are so many scholarships available to students who are financially incapable an...

Money Matters For Beginners

In this world that we live in, there is no doubt that money is one of the most essential things that we really need whether we like it or not. Money will always have a great impact to our lives and to our love ones. Some will think that it is a measurement of hierarchy and social status for as cruel as it can get some would say that if you have no money, you have no friends, no social status and of course, no social life. So understanding that concept, it may not be 100% accurate but at least practical to get us ready for the unexpected or worse, the unbearable. First of, either you're a student or income generating mogul, at least you should have a  Bank Account  other than your Salary or Wage or Paycheck Account where you get your Allowance and Salaries. Have a personal savings account where you train yourself to build your life savings and will prohibit yourself from withdrawing. Save and Save and Save until you have that fulfillment of having your own Bank. Your first ...
