WHAT’S IN HERE FOR YOU

I don’t want you to live from paycheck to paycheck. It’s a vicious cycle if you let yourself be caught with it. One day you’ll wake up and realize that life is just passing you by. We all have goals and dreams. But the sad part is that we put off living the life we dream of in the someday that may never come.

I am not promising you a financially worry-free living. My life, too, is far from perfect. I have had many regrets and I do sometimes wallow in the what might have beens. And when it comes to money, like you I have my share of worries. But then look around you. If you read the newspapers or surf the net many are instances of people who have so much and yet living aimlessly or worse committed suicide. By sharing this journey with you my hope is that you’ll find the tools to help you start living your own dream in the present. That may sound cliché, yes, but then we only have one take in this life.

My posts will focus mainly about stuff that will help you get to live the life you want now. I’ll write largely about money issues – cost-cutting, saving, spending, investing, giving and touch on other related stuff like self- improvement, hobbies, career, family and relationships. I will, from time, talk about traveling for less as this is a subject I feel most strongly about.

I’d like to warn you, though, that you would not get any textbook-like lessons here. I have no formal training about the subject of money and finance. What I have are my own real life experiences and true stories of the people around me, those that I meet along the way and those that I heard of or read about.

What I have to offer are only true to life. Nothing more. Nothing less.
