The Journey of a Financial Advisor Part I

My journey as a Financial Advisor merely started because of a hunger to learn how to manage money. I guess everyone might agree with me, that even the rich people are sometimes lousy in managing their own finances. Even I, myself, is guilty of doing this. It's like, if you have money, the tendency is you want more. Shopping here, expenses overboard, buying that, buying these etc.

I realized, that sometimes it would take someone or somebody to poke our head for us to realize that we need to have a goal, we have to be financially literate, to make money work for us and at the same time protecting our love ones. Not for us chasing money and make us work forever.

Initially the case is we will work for the money (that's true) but eventually, as the time goes by, this must not always be the case. Our family, our kids, needs us.  We need to have more time for them, we need to have time for things that we would like to do, like traveling or chasing our passion. Instead of us working for the longest time just to earn money.

So to initially achieve my goal to be a financial advisor are:
  1. Study
  2. Take some series of training.
  3. To pass the licensing exam.
I'm in progress. The next big thing is. If you want to achieve something you have to start somewhere, else dream will just a dream. So we have to move our feet and take action!

Storing fruits and vegetables

Credit to pngpix.com Storing fruits and vegetables is one of the biggest problem I had . As a busy mom, I usually buy fruits and vegetables once in a week. But after a few days, these veggies and fruits are already a waste of money. When the time that I want to cook them it's already rotten. How sad... and I end up cooking nothing but meat :( So I came to research what are the best way to store fruits and veggies that could last longer. One golden rule is never store fruits and vegetable together. The acidity of the fruit makes the veggies rot faster. Apple - Store them in the coolest part of the fridge. Celery, carrots, and cabbage - pack them in plastic, some use foil but you have to consume it as soon as possible. And with carrots some cut the leafy part of it, cause that's the part that rot fast.  I tried cutting the carrots in cubes and putting them in the freezer, that should work for a week. Eggplant - Usually I put them inside the fridge, but not now. You h...

The Journey of a Financial Advisor Part 2

I've been waiting for this day to take the licensing exam from Insurance Commission. It is supposedly last week, but I wasn't able to do so, since my kid has fever. Insurance Commission, United Nation Avenue, Manila I reviewed all night, but I'm a bit frustrated since I wasn't able to finished all the reviewer. I woke up and see all the papers we're scattered on the floor. I'm trying to recall what happened, just then I realized that I fell asleep with the papers on my hand the night. (Sigh) But to start the day with good vibes. I need to start fresh with coffee on the table (wink) and a good breakfast. I have an hour to prepare and start traveling from Mandaluyong to Manila to get to Insurance Commission. I need to avoid rush hour to be late. At exactly 5:58 am, I left home with only one goal in my head. "Pass the two exams, without retaking!". Around 7:17, I'm already at the Insurance Commission, asking the guard how to go on the proc...

Prosure - For People with Cancer Induced Weight Loss

For People with Cancer Induced Weight Loss , uniquely formulated, high protein, EPA-enriched ( EPA-Eicosapentaenoic Acid, An Omega-3 fatty acid ), Prosure is from Abbot or licensed by Abbot  Laboratories. I have purchased this milk (Prosure) just today. My father's doctor prescribed this milk to double the dosage intake of calorie he's been getting. Since a few days ago CT scan results shows that there is a recurrent of tumor on his neck. Unfortunately there are some signs of pain on his upper back which cause him to loose his appetite due to pain. So to  compensate the missing calorie Prosure was added to his daily diet, 1 scoop of Prosure added to 1 scoop of Sustagen premium. Twice a day. Prosure claims the following help: Promote weight gain. Increase lean body mass and strength. Enhance physical activity. Improve quality of life. Hopefully Prosure milk will help him a lot.  Good thing Prosure was invented these days, were modern drugs and milk already exi...
