A Personal Finance Blog by a Twenty Something Filipina

An Introduction


Well, I suck at managing money, along with thousands of other millennials. So at least I’m not the only one lamenting over this problem. But that’s not really a good thing now, is it? Ugh.

2015 was a good year for me financially because that was my first year of having a job and I was able to put PHP 100, 000 in my savings account. 2016 was more of spending all of those savings and then some to travel to three different countries and have a smaller savings account than what I started that year. 2017 is… well, I’m feeling the burn of the expenses I made last year and since I also just got back from travelling… My savings is still not as healthy as I want it to be. I’m aiming to save PHP 175, 000 this year and I have a long, long, long way to go. Like, a really long way to go.
