Nindot na pre. pero realistically, dili tanan makaya na siya, someone has to work with the business that we own. and those people should have education too. I think everybody knows that theory (walay nadato pag panarbaho) they want negosyo pero kulang sa puhunan or connection or knowledge or all of the above. Ana jud ang life, dili tanan mahimong Boss, katong mga naningkamot nga na swertehan, mao toy mahimong Boss, pero naa pud biya naningkamot nga wala jud mahimong Boss. Paningkamot is not enough.

Back to Topic na ta.....

Savings: gamay ra gyud
I got married at 20 while I was still studying. I ventured a lot of businesses from selling siopao at school, lechon manok, selling apparels and even got robbed by pyramiding. After I graduated, I worked as TSR somewhere in iT Park. I took the board exam while working and won over those questionnaires. I stopped working when opportunity came and I did my best. It was the start, a store!
With those business failures, I learned a lot of things which is best to experience rather than share it with you. Everybody fails. Rise up and never fail again. But until now I always fail, but every failure is a lesson and you grow up. After a year I bought a motorcycle, appliances etc. And a year after nanganak akung tindahan, duha na sila! A month ago I bought a 2nd hand kariton. And this days planning to get a bahay kubo. For me, kuwang pa ni. Charr!
I still have dreams, for my family and for myself. Mahal kaayo ang gatas, skwela, tambal ug mga palitonon. Mahal kaayo ang pipe, block, bigvalve, accessories, gas ug uban pa! Mahal ang spoiler, side skirt, bumper, repaint, mags, wheels. Sus paita sa lyf. Kanus-a pa kaha ni mobarato?huhuhu
That's why tinuod gamay ra gyud kaayo akung savings. I love to work and of course spend. Sori sa OT, na kered awey lang sa thread.

Naa koy nabasahan nga libro that very successful businessmen (by successful, I mean kadtong mga tycoons gyud ug mga successful gyud kaayo), they have a batting average of 1 is to 17. That means 1 business will succeed big time after 17 tries. Dunno if exaggerated ba if di ang statistic but I guess the lesson is just to keep on going. You can look at your "setbacks" either as failure or learning opportunities. Kalimot lang ko sa title sa book.

3 years na sa job as a design staff in an Architectural Firm pero wa pakoy SSS, PhilHealth and Pag-ibig. 4 digit salary. Nalingaw ko kay kani akong mga simple wishlist na akong gisuwat sa akong gamay na notebook, natuman ug hinay2x ang uban, gikan sa barat2x sa mejo mahal2x, hehehe. Lipay na kaayo ko na nakapalit kog bike (2nd hand), mic and mic stand (dream to be a rockstar, hilig mig videoke sa balay, lol). bisan tuod ginagmay lipay na kaayo ko (bike, mic, mic stand apil sa akong wishlist ). Maayo sad gyud ning magsugod ta sa gamay.

Akong mga igsuon naa cla uban anang butanga, maghuwat lang kog pisik ani, basin pa d,i e hatag sa ako, hahaha.

In terms of investments, nag plan sad ko mo invest soon kay di mahimong magsige lang tag trabaho na walay negosyo, kay para nako di mo asenso ang taw kong magcge lag trabaho.
