If you haven’t received your Christmas bonus yet, you probably will in the next weeks. You’ll probably be getting anywhere from P50,000 to P100,000. How are you going to spend it? Do you have a good tip on where to put that kind of money?
We gotta plan, or else even P100,000 can vanish without a trace.

Hey, salve! I always try to check on the threads after the weekend. Don’t have internet connection at home - and i don’t intend to. It’s part of my saving scheme. Wifi is not an option either since there’s no more free connection nowadays!
the worksheet I developed is simple and easy to manage. it does not even have sophisticated computing tool but it works for me. nonetheless, will share it with you guys.
yes, it sounds cumbersome but it works for me as it enables me to see where did my money go? in the past, i trick myself into thinking that i must have lost it somewhere. however, reality does bite. now, i want to confront it head on hehehe.
inasmuch as i am tightening my belt to purge years of financial irresponsibility, i try to give myself an incentive once in a while.
for christmas, i might give myself an iphone? LOL. or maybe a watch to remind that time of the essence. So, pay unpaid doubts, fast!

It’s time for sharing, so the bonus will be for gift-giving to family and friends, charity and church, and for good old me!
I hope my share will buy me a nice laptop. What’s left of it goes to the retirement pot.
Maybe, you guys can help me put the right percentage.
