Some of the reasons of Filipinos for working abroad are to be able to send the children to school, to have their own house, or to fulfill their dreams of getting wealthier.
But as often the case we find that “expense normally rises to meet our level of income”. The higher our income, the more we spend. And so there are people who find themselves exactly the way they are while they were working in the Philippines. They still find themselves short of cash.
What seems to be the problem? How can we solve this?
I found this article in the inquirer that we can use as our guide to solve this problem. You just have to practice a lot of discipline.

Let me also add another suggestion. Whenever you spend, try to minimize pure expenses and put your money where it can grow. An example is setup a store , invest in apartments if you can afford it, or put up a small business (like t-shirts, selling tocino’s or longganisa).
