It's difficult to save especially when you work for the media or creative industry. My mentality is usually "I'll treat myself to something good" after a long project. Kung investment ang hahanpin ko, it would probably be insurance or something. It's a first step. I have the same problem.

My mom always told me to save since we never know what we'll encounter in the future. It doesn't have to be really big naman. I'm still a student so my goal is a realistic 10 pesos a day (hahaha). I echo jaydj- you already have work so you can save a little bigger everyday. ^_^ And I like your blog! ^_^ hello po!

Me naman, I'm a saver. I grew up in a big family and had to learn how to delay gratification. It has its perks too. At the end of the day, I guess it really depends on what you value on the most. :) I do have a suggestion though - why not apply for a retirement plan? I'm talking about insurance. I pay 6000Php every 6 months and the growth compounds as the years go by. The younger you start, the cheaper it'll be for you and the bigger the benefits are at least 10-20 years from now. Its like 1000/month lang. Fyi, di kita binebentahan ha. I'm saying this because I think its a wise investment. :) I guess we all have our opinions on this – saving. Me naman, I’m a saver.

Saving up is always a good thing. But have we asked ourselves why save up? If we can get already our happiness with what we have right now. The same principle goes for my photography. Family and friends always encouraged me to save up (and up until recently I did!) but since I can already get what I've wanted (in terms of photog stuff) what is the point? Live deprived now, so that when you are old and gray you are happy? I'd rather be happy now and figure out what I'm gonna do when I get there. ;) but that's just me.
