What’s the difference between the rich and the poor? The rich knows how to handle money. The poor doesn’t. Now don’t get me wrong. I’m not saying the poor are poor because they don’t know how to handle money. I’m saying the poor don’t know how to handle money because they’re poor. They weren’t able to handle money much to begin with. These days, as wealth supposedly trickles (trickles!) downward from the improving economy, as salaries from new jobs come, as OFW relatives remit cash, as lotto tickets win, the beneficiaries of this money need to learn to budget, to save, to invest. Otherwise, much of the money will go to waste.
Right at the heels of the Fitch rating upgrade, Standard & Poor’s is following suit giving the country a rating upgrade from BB+ to BBB-. So when will Moody’s rating upgrade going to be? :D
We attended the 13th Lagare clan reunion which just happened to be organized by our branch of the clan. It’s my first time to attend and I was astonished by so many relatives. I’m glad to have met some and seen even more. Till next time!
A few months ago, I decided to refurbish my quite old Oakley Fives Squared. I polished the metallic Os and the lenses. But the lenses still left a lot to be desired so I ordered replacement lenses from Visionary Lenses via Amazon. The first package got lost in transit. I got in touch with VL and they immediately sent a new package which finally did arrive. Well actually I had to go to the post office and pick it up. The lenses were just as described and fit perfectly.
