Juan inspected the buckets and found out that it had a hole on...

Is inflation eating up your money?

Inflation, it’s a word we hear from news, tv and banks but what really is inflation?

Too complicated? Yeah! Let me simplify it as much as I can, inflation is when prices goes up and our salary does not! (hehe) Kidding aside, Inflation...

Your words are powerful!

Did you know that our words truly have powers? I am not talking about powers that we see on TV like power to fly, power of fire etc. The power of our words could either create or break us.

In  Proverbs 16:24, it says "Gracious words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul...

The emergency fund will help you KEEP OUT OF DEBT and will PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT. One time I was jobless, I was jobless for 7 months! I did not have any cash flow, all that was left was my emergency fund. While I was searching for a job, I had to spend on jeepney fares, snacks, meals and some little...

Good debt is a type of debt when it will be used for business and in return, profit! You gain more money because you borrowed money to do business. A bad debt is completely the opposite, you borrow money, use it for something that will not earn you...
