Philippine Bank Account Comparisons



As discussed in my previous post, "Where is the best place to put your money?", the first financial vehicle a person should have is a bank account.

Your bank account should be able to shoulder your daily expenses and should also have your stand-by emergency fund. Your emergency fund should be more or less be 3x your monthly salary. The purpose of your emergency fund is for you to be able to sustain your basic needs and lifestyle for 3 months just in case you lose your main source of income.

After knowing the importance of having a bank account, next question is to which bank will you open an account.

Where is the best place to put your money?



Since I finished college, I have ever since wondered how to be able to effectively save money. But throughout my first 6 years working, I have constantly procrastinated on saving for my future because I was too distracted on other material things that I know I was capable of buying that time.

Until it finally hit me hard when I was finally starting to feel my responsibilities not just towards myself but also to my family. I suddenly felt that the money I earn was just enough to sustain me and my family and I was not able to set aside enough savings for my family's future.
