Money and environment is every Juan’s concern – no exemption

When it rains, it pours or so they say… Here’s another uplifting comment about my money blogs:

“I like your articles, full of information and very inspiring. Like you, my advocacy is to increase awareness of fellow kababyans on financial literacy. May you continue inspiring people like us through your blogs. Mabuhay ka katoto.” – Bee 88 via Entrepreneur Philippines Forum

Isn’t it better to give and to receive such comments instead of giving out impolite ones?

How do I save money if I have no money to save?

I remember when I was argued by someone in one forum that some Pinoys or people as much as they want to save and invest don’t “really” have the money to do so.

Basics of Money (possibility of being laid off)

Almost 3 days without blogging felt like forever… My last blog was “Ang Huling El Bimbo” which was about the final concert (according to them) by the now disbanded, Eraserheads. Been busy with the pre-launching preparations of my new online business that will start to operate hopefully by March 15, 2008 or if not, within the month.

Details of which will be posted here as well upon launch. But for now, let’s blog something about the reality of being laid-off by employers because this incident is often laughed at by employees not until they personally experience it which sometimes is too late for some people.

Ignorance of the law excuses no one – the same is true with money

We’ve heard this over and over again, “Ignorance of the law excuses no one”. Although, personally I have an argument that no one can really take the time to read all the laws as it’s just too many thus there should be certain laws (those that are not so pressing meaning not life threatening) that should give warnings first to the offender. Much like an “informational warning” so that this offender is now aware of that particular law so that next time (if hindi siya pasaway), he will not do it again because it’s the law.
