Investment and Mutual Funds Earnings



Here's a real-life, data driven lesson for everyone.

If you open an investment account (via Colfinancial, Philam, Sun, etc.) worth P5,000, with a cumulative 48% returns in 5 years:

Investment: Your P5,000 will have become P7,400 even while you're sleeping.


Traditional Savings: If you have P5,000 in a bank, after 5 years, you have P5,052.


LESSON: Save up wisely.

May takas ba dito? Meron (beams confidently)!~
Tara at alamin. ^__^

When Money isn't the most important thing...But...

Material resources free us to achieve higher level values, which can consequentially unlock other higher level values. Then at some point, the utility of these material endowments will taper off. And we'll have to look for happiness, love, contentment that will feed the eternal, higher order need that humans find elusive...that no amount of money can buy.
