depende na sa imong lifestyle. dili mana depende jud sa imong gi earn, well, depende gamay. dili man sad cguro ta mabuhi kung 100 per day lang ta. pero sa akong pang mga ginikanan, ITS NOT WHAT YOU EARN, ITS WHAT YOU SAVE. which is para nako korek jud.

Ug para sa tubag nako kang TS, depende jud sa imong lifestyle, no exact amount. If imong income 1million per month pero imong lifestyle will cost you 1million one hundred per month, so negative ghapon ka. pero imong income 10k per month then imong life style kay mo cost lang ug 3k per month, then dali raka ma wealthy.

Nabasa to ninyong CC profile nga gibuhat sa US?

Naa silay gihimu nga chart nga "basehan" daw sa creditworthiness sa usaka ka tao when in reality mao nang basehan unsa ka gastador ang tao. Dili creditworthiness... mao na basehan unsa ka luho. So its not necessarily an option to live in an "exclusive" area. What you really want is the space to provide a home for your family. Ang security sa area? Well, daghag kawatan left-and-right. Anha sa lugar nga daghan mubantay sa imong balay og mga tao nga suod nimo.

Im not a spender,tho! I paid it the house for 6 months (1.3 M). Im Single and Planning not to marry but tangkil nako akong mama
I once read nga ang Pinas daw is good for small business kay mura daw ug 60s sa US ang pinas now. Mo lambo jd daw ang business if u have the heart for it!
Im kinda studying the PHil Stock Market and Mutual funds and how it works. would that be a good idea?

there is truth in what you said... Its not how much money you earn, but how much money you keep... that is a guideline worthy to be remembered.... It was a personal estimation for me to earn at least 60K for me to live comfortably with a small family... the key word here is comfortably.... it would differ from people to people...for some, its not even enough...as you have said, it depends on your lifestyle... but CEBU is progressing fast and together with it is the inflation of basic goods and services... i doubt you can live comfortably with 3K if you are living in the city... unless someone is still subsidizing some of your lifestyle...
