The Financial Advisor

Every financial adviser has her struggle and that includes being the "Invisible man" and "Seen mode friend". Almost all financial adviser I think could relate to this, specially those who do their communication on facebook or maybe in other social media. Most of the time, we would message someone and yet as if typing "no" or "not interested" would take an hour of their time. We know that these people are busy, and yet we feel that if we talk to someone and we don't get direct answers, as if there's no closure at all. But yeah that's life, and that's reality and reality bites!

And oh, should I also mention that includes text messages as well (wink*). This is not new, sometimes you may loose majority of your so called online friends because of this. Funny but true, might frustrate us a bit, but we have to move on from client to client.

Client might not realize their needs for insurance or investment at their current state in life, and mind you, selling insurance is difficult. Harder to sell than real estate.. why? Cause it's intangible, how would you sell something that's can't been seen? And yet we know for sure that the reason why we are in this business is not just for commission itself, but the genuine intention to help other people realized their financial goals and secure their family. Especially the breadwinners. As much as possible we would want to emphasize that, a few years from now, his or her family will get something out of it. That whatever happened to them in the future this will be a big help to them.

That we would cross the islands and the sea just to get there, and extend our service. There are times that we would sacrifice our family time just to be of service to our dear client, but hey, they would still think that it's all about commission. Sad but true.

To be a financial adviser is to be an advocate of financial literacy and be of service to our client to help them build financial security in the future not just for them but for their loved ones.

So if you have the guts and passion to be an advocate and help our client. Please join us in our journey as Sun Life Financial adviser.

Premarital Sex, Morally Wrong or Right?

Premarital Sex is long been an issue in our super judgmental society. It is an obvious serious problem of world's abnormality. Since we're living in what we call free country, people around the world especially the young ones, believe that sex is an ordinary pleasure, its secrecy and its excitement send shiver on young ones. Little by little the behavior of teenagers has been destructed and bent into different directions. I'm not telling you that i am pro adult premarital sex, but mostly teenagers are the most affected of this issue. Since their spiritual and emotions are not established yet. Usually their idea of premarital sex has been twisted maybe by media, like television or internet. At this age they are still in the process in finding their self and identity.

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...

Junk foods for you and for me

Most of us love eating junk foods especially the kids and my kid is one of them. Oh how she loved eating chocolate like me. Green & Black's Organic Chocolate Bar, 70% Cocoa, 3.5-Ounce Bars (Pack of 10) It is sad but true that most of our kids today have junk food on their diet. These foods are loaded with high calories, fats, and sugar, but very low in nutrition.
