I grew up with my grandparents from both sides of the family. My parents shipped me in Bacolod or Baguio when they were reviewing for the Bar Exams in Manila. I even remember getting everything I want – from toys to food, every time I’m with them. I enjoy spending time with my grandparents because […]
One of the things many married couples face (and sometimes fail!) is how to handle money at home. Trust me, it’s never going to be an easy topic to deal with and even discuss about. Once you get married and unless there is a pre-nuptial agreement executed prior to the celebration of marriage, there is […]

Since I became a mom, I found online shopping for kids both therapeutic and enjoyable. I also enjoy the idea of being able to shop from brands abroad like Bebe for […]
Prior to marriage and even if we were living together, my husband and I maintain separate bank accounts. Except for the expenses at home and for the kids, we follow the “What’s mine is mine, what’s yours is yours” rule. It’s not about being selfish. We prefer keeping our money separate but have a “common fund” to […]
Hearts Day is just around the corner. So, where do you plan to spend the 14th with your man? Dinner dates in a fancy restaurant may be the perfect excuse for you to go out. The question now is – does it always have to be like that every year? What if you are still […]
I never dreamed of being a housewife. When I was younger, my idea of family means the husband and I will work to provide for the family. I will have a career, stable job, and money of my own. When it comes to our kids, we can find a reliable househelp and then leave the […]
I was never really pressured in school. When I was younger, I study hard and try my best to make it on the Top 10 so my parents will have no choice but to buy what I want. I am not the smartest in class, but I don’t fail. I never looked at higher grades […]
Before anything else, Happy New Year! I used to write resolutions or things to be done even before the year ends. I just have this habit before a new year starts, plus I like seeing how I could be the better version of myself – only to fall short of my yearly goals. Worse, I […]

I have so much appreciation and respect for teachers. Apart from their dedication and commitment to teach our kids, I believe that they are also selfless when they take the role as our child’s second parent. This is why I always make it a point to give back to my kids’ teachers as a symbol […]
After college, I worked in the Corporate Banking Division of one of the biggest banks in the country. So yeah, I know a lot about loans, interests, mortgage, and even foreclosure of properties. I know how banks work and how they make money using your money. I have seen how some of our clients fight […]
My mom always tells me that education is the best gift she and my dad could give to me and my siblings. They worked hard to send us in the best schools and made sure that we will get the best and quality education. After all and based on my experience, where you graduated does […]
