savings and retirement planning. It involves analyzing current
financial positions, projecting short term and long-term funding
needs, and executing a plan to fulfil those needs considering
individual financial constraints. It is primarily dependent on one’s
earnings, cost of living, and personal goals and wants.

frames.

Examine these objectives with an individual’s
resources and limitation
Example:
A mom wants to have 1,000,000 pesos after 10 years for
her daughter’s education.

interviews to gather quantitative and
qualitative information from the
individual.

savings she has and her current sources of
income.

agreements, wills and etc.)

required return to reach her target of 1 million pesos after

Money Management Philosophies
Peoplewho set aside time bases to create
a money management plan make them
financially successful and those who fail to
plan, most likely are the ones who are
always in need of money.
1. Devise aBudget
A budget is essentially a financial
roadmap that allows anybody to live within
their means, while having enough left over
to save for long-term goals. Having a budget
is the first mandatory step from which savvy
money management will evolve.
24.
2. Create EmergencyFund
It’s important to ensure money is set aside
for rainy day fund like during emergencies or
sudden unemployment. The ideal safety net for
this fund is between three to six months worth
of living expenses.
25.
3. Limit Incurringa Liability
Living within the available resources will limit
unnecessary liability or obligations. This will also
avoid any deviation of the budget and any
adjustments to the planned expenditures. But
incurring obligations top accumulate an asset ,
like buying a house on installment rather than
renting, is one of the exemptions to the rule.
26.
4. Use CreditCards Wisely
Acquiring credit cards is one of major traps for anyone
to get in trouble for recurring obligations. In most cases,
anybody is tempted to buy unnecessary things due to
availability of credit cards. Another loophole of using
credit card is that payment can be done on staggered
basis with interest rate stated on a monthly basis. In
reality, this term will yield to a higher interest rate (
monthly rate multiply by 12 months ) compared to the
prevailing interest rate.
27.
5. Monitor CreditScore
Credit score is built and maintained through
credit cards spending. Monitoring credit scores
goes hand in hand with watching credit spending.
This is needed when obtaining an approval for
lease, mortgage or any other type of financing.
Factors that determine credit score include credit
holding period, payment history and credit to debt
ratio.
28.
6. Plan andSave for Retirement
Retirement may seem like another lifetime away, but it
arrives much faster that expected. Based on suggestions
of experts, most people need to save more or less 80% of
their current salary for retirement purposes. There will be
more benefits if anybody will start saving for retirement
at a very young age. Setting aside money now for
retirement allows it to grow over the long term.
29.
7. Family Consideration
Preparingfor the future considers the family to
be left behind in case of any eventualities. An
insurance protection is not applicable for material
possessions ( car and house) but most especially
to one’s life. This is to ensure that assets are
protected and meets your family’s needs though
life’s major milestones.

8. Rewarding Oneself
Deprivingoneself of the needed break is one
of the consequences of a strict financial
budgeting and planning. However, there is a
need to allow some reasonable rewards to
oneself at least once in a while. It can be a
vacation, purchase, or an occasional night in the
town to enjoy the fruits of hard labor. This is
simply taste of the financial independence for
working so hard.
