A Ticket to Good Life?



I know most members in this site are either alone or having at most two family members living within their home/s. I have always wanted know how one goes about their monthly spendings. I know basics would always be a major part, like food and utilities, also personal liabilities like home mortgage or car loans. There_ is also the miscellaneous for frivolities, entertainment, travel, grooming, etc. or a contingency fund set aside, either as savings or for emergency purposes.

For those are single, we Pinoys, are obligated to_ set aside a portion of our income monthly for sending either as_support to_a family back home or subsidize monthly expenses on education, house rentals or house amortizations. Whatever the case, earnings would have to_match up all these needed expenses, so it_ is no wonder why one must have 2-3 jobs during the day/night.

These inadequacies also motivate a Filipina to_ marry a foreigner, in the light, that she is able to_ augment or find a partner to_ support partly or wholly, her needs and that of her family back home. Loving the partner may not be a problem at all under these circumstances. There_ is also the fact that, some would find the foreign partner as a good means for fleecing, support their high maintenance cost of living, which them is an easier way out.

Can you add or contribute anything to_ this?

 For seniors, they would opt for simple living, which is my opinion. They would settle for simple food and pleasure, as majority of their monies would be directed to maintaining their health and healthy lifestyle.

 I am fully retired now and guaranteed three meals a day for life. I've worked my tail off for more than a half century to earn it. It's relaxation time for me until the sun sets on me.

Past the earning period, time to earn and enjoy the rest of life..that's giving yourself a break and the chance to live life as how you deem best. and fit..enjoy for now!...

Add someone to keep you company, it may be a better or a more enjoyable fare..not necessarily someone to tie you down or be committed to through the years, but the freedom to do things as you would both like together....

such noble life to live like that...you are nearer to your Creator..but lemme ask, do you find time also to be with HIM? prayers one way to do it, but what about church services? attending online maybe, because of pandemic? one thing that this pandemic made me do is to attend the services online everyday, with the many times am always at home..thus i became a devotee of the Black Nazarene...[/sife]
