How to Manage your Finances



I have previously discussed options on where you can put your money. But before jumping into the sea, one should do a financial checkup to determine whether or not you are ready to invest.

Places to go in Ilocos



We went to Ilocos some time last August 2012 together with Hubby's family. They hired a van to go around tourist spots in Ilocos and we tagged along. You'll be amazed that there's lot of places to go in Ilocos that one or two days won't be enough.

Our Trip to Baler, Aurora


We went to Baler, Aurora some time last May 2013 so we won't be able to provide our detailed itinerary and expenses. We'll try our best to remember everything we did there.

Parang freezer sa lamig - Joy Bus on the way to Baler
It takes around 5-6 hours to reach Baler from Manila. To commute going to Baler, you have two options: (1) take the Genesis Transport Bus (Php450) or (2) take the Joy Bus (Php700). The difference between the two option is Joy Bus does not have any stop over, has on-board comfort room, free snacks, free WiFi, and provides blanket to use during the trip. However, Joy Bus rides only have two schedules per day so make your reservations in advance in their Genesis Transport Cubao branch. Contact Genesis Transport directly to inquire for their updated bus schedules.

Insurance 101



I have briefly discussed in one of my articles where one should be putting there money (click here to read about it). Second financial vehicle I have mentioned is to have a Variable Life (VL) Insurance for your long-term funds. Long-term funds are usually intended for children's education and for retirement. But before I discuss about Variable Life (VL) Insurance, let me first explain the basics of life insurance.
