Win tickets to Family and Finance 2017

I have always believed that proper financial management is very crucial in our daily lives. Whether we are single or married, it is important that we are financially responsible. Though money won't bring us genuine happiness, we should look after our financial well-being because of practical reasons. 

Family and Finance is a movement dedicated to educate and empower parents and individuals improve their financial well-being. Attendees will have to go through an extensive step-by-step process that begins with checking one’s financial health, discussing finances as a couple, setting goals as a family, kickstarting one’s investment journey and the truth about money. This event also aims to equip parents to teach their children about money because financial literacy starts at home. At the end of the conference, attendees will not just gain practical but also actionable steps that they can immediately apply to improve their own financial well-being.


Keynote speakers include Director of RFP and international speaker and best-selling author, Randell Tiongson; President of Homeschool Global and lead anchor of ANC’s “On the Money”, Edric Mendoza; Editor-in-Chief of Money Sense and Co-Founder of Learning Curve, Heinz Bulos; Director of Crown Financial Ministries, Joby Soriano and Director of Cards and Digital Payments, Personal Finance Coach, Sky Salanio. 

Aside from the main conference, Family and Finance is launching its first ever financial literacy program for Pre-K to 12 years old children. “PRO KIDS” is specially designed to develop children’s financial literacy through exciting games and fun-filled activities. It is indeed never too early to learn about money!

Family and Finance 2017 will be held on April 1, 2017, 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM at CCF Center, Frontera Verde, Ortigas Avenue corner C5 Road, Pasig City. Avail of their early bird rate of P850 for single attendee and P1500 for couples until March 26, 2017.

Book Review: Mommy Loves You Just The Same by Teresa Dumadag

Have you ever heard stories about older kids wishing that their new baby brother or sister be back in their mother's womb?

Well, I have and it happened within my own family. I am the youngest of the 3 siblings and with a 6 and 8-year gap. They said that my brother was a bit jealous and wants to stay as the "baby" in the family even though he is already 6 years old. He kept on bugging my mom to put me back where I can from. Well, it's funny but true.

So when I found this upcoming children's book by Teresa G. Dumadag entitled Mommy Loves Me Just The Same, it reminded me of that story. The book was written while she was pregnant with her 3rd child to help inspire moms to breastfeed continuously (tandem feed if needed) and to involve the older kids in caring for their younger sibling. The book provides ideas for older siblings on how they can bond with the coming baby even while still in their mother’s womb and what they can do to help when the baby arrives. It's also a great tool that moms can use to assure their older children that their love for them remains the same even with an additional child in the family.


I believe that this can benefit other moms and families. It is highly recommended for moms who are expecting another child or who gave birth to another child not so long ago. It will help moms assure their older kids that their love for them remains the same even with the coming of another baby. It also provides ideas on how the older sibling can help prepare for the baby's coming and take care of the baby when the baby arrives.

It is a good read for both moms and older children. The message has been captured in a simple yet meaningful approach that was brought to life through the beautiful illustrations by Jia Rubio- Monserrat.

Filipinos are Generally Happy. Are you of one of them?

According to a Gallup poll in March 2015, Filipinos ranked 5th among the happiest citizens of the world. Do you agree with this? Are you happy with your life? How do you feel about your future? Are you family members hopeful or gloomy? 



These are the questions that I have on my mind when I read the report. Do you still feel the positivity despite all of the problems and adversaries you may have. 

Well, if you can't answer the question or still undecided about your current situation. Then, I have good news for you. With the Brighter Life Index: Social Sentiment or BLISS, Sun Life will show how optimism, prosperity, and the bayanihan spirit can produce a positive ripple from ourselves to our loved ones and to the community where we live.  

We do not have to dwell on our current situation but rather our Filipino community can help us maintain and share the "blissful" attitude to everyone and be part of this positive change in our respective communities and spreading the happiness starting with the use of social media. 

BLISS is a Facebook application that aims to get the pulse of Filipinos about their current financial situation as well as their outlook for the future. “BLISS gives us the canvas to paint our #LiveFreePH campaign. 

Through everyone's participation, we can seek the brightest spots while also determining the areas that are in need of a bit more sunshine,” explained Sun Life of Canada (Philippines), Inc. Chief Marketing Officer Mylene Lopa. “Together with the Sun Life Foundation, we will help turn dim prospects to bright opportunities.”

How does this work? 

Through crowdsourcing, BLISS gathers insights directly from consumers by asking Filipinos about their current state and their outlook for the future. Responses will be collected primarily via Facebook. 

The results will be embodied by a map of the Philippines, where positive sentiments will be represented by sunny weather, while negative ones will be indicated by thunderstorms. This will be updated real time, with different aggregations available for viewing.

Amazing, right? 

This is not just limited to a study but applied in real life too. 

The Sun Life Foundation pledges to match survey responses with a donation to help localities with bleak outlooks, as indicated by the stormy icons in the results map. Inspired by the practice of bayanihan (communal work), the initiative translates insight to action, via the information that will be shared by online users. So, the sunshine will be experienced in real life and not just in the cyber space. 

“Sun Life Foundation believes in action that is powered by insight, and we’re bringing that to the social media platform through BLISS,” said Sun Life Foundation Executive Director Anne Zillah Flores. “We’re taking it further by actually responding to the gaps that will be determined. We will fund projects to help communities with bleak prospects so they can adopt a brighter outlook.”

BLISS to #LiveFreePH

From the present to the future, BLISS narrates the changing story of Filipinos from multiple points of view: self, family, and community. Income, health, and work-life balance are identified as personal concerns; food, nutrition and financial security comprise the familial territory; while access to quality education, healthcare, and livelihood opportunities are the societal factors that impact the nation as a whole. When addressed properly, these concerns can become the building blocks of a nationwide movement towards financial independence.

“From BLISS, we lay down the blueprint of #LiveFreePH – to practice foresight by being conscious of our needs while sharing the benefits of living the brighter life,” Lopa said. “We hope that by working together towards financial freedom, we can create a story of a prosperous and optimistic nation, because in our journey to financial freedom, we can go far if we go together.”

So go ahead and share the BLISS to help communities in need and get the chance to win awesome prizes like an iPad Air. Go to http://bit.ly/1hDBxhn to begin.
