Personal Money Tips

It seems that divorce rate is reaching (or perhaps passed) 50% in many countries. In order to protect themselves, many couple sign prenuptial agreement, stash their asset over several places etc.

Well, though high divorce rates is a fact of life, can we choose to be the other 50% that stays married, till death do us part? You’ve heard this “Behind every successful man, there is a woman, and behind every failure, there is “another” women, right.

So my take on this is one man to one woman. And before someone throw something at me, the other way round works too.

Besides all the heartache and pain of divorce, it saves your money too.

I watched a video clip that showed survivors of the earthquake in Pakistan that happened in October 8, 2005. Apparently thousands that survived the earthquake are in danger of dying due to approaching winter, lack of food and medical supplies.

According to riskpak.com, Relief Information System for Earthquakes - Pakistan, USD 100 can provide a three-month supply of hygiene kits for 50 people left homeless! Are we doing enough for these people?

Till I watched the video, Pakistan seemed like a problem that is so far off. If you could get hold of some video clips, you’ll realize the enormity of the situation. Here is a chance for those who have the money to do so real good.

Most would think, in order to be a millionaire, we got to earn big bucks. Not necessarily so, according to an article by David Bach. Seems like we don’t have to earn a lot to have a lot. I absolutely agree with him on this point.

If this is true, then all those hours spent at the office, running the rat race, climbing the corporate ladder is an option. Interesting isn’t it when the world around advertises us all the time to have it all now and get into the black hole of debt.

King Solomon, one of the riches men in his era wrote this: -

Better is he that is lightly esteemed, and hath a servant, Than he that honoreth himself, and lacketh bread ~ Proverbs 12:9 ASV

How to life, only you can decide. It’s your call.
