We should also save money for emergencies and our retirement. Rich people have ideas all the time, and they are not only thinking of now but the future generations. One thing he noticed was rich people invest in education, while those who are considered poor invest more in entertainment.
We should learn to save while we are earning a small amount of money, because how can we learn to manage more money if we didn't learn how to handle it when it was small? Some people, even they earn a lot, still don't have enough due to the wrong mindset and improper spending.Ĭhinkee Tan also illustrated the difference between poor and rich people. Its not that we should deprive ourselves of these things, but we should buy things within our budget and start being conscious of the money we spend without thinking. If we buy bottled water everyday, imagine how many pesos we can save everyday if we choose to refill a water bottle instead of buying! These also applies to cigarettes, coffee, lotto tickets, and those little things that cost little coins, but add up to thousands of pesos over many years of spending. For 7-10 pesos, we are not only paying for the water but the plastic bottle, cap, label, advertising, and shipping. If we think of our instant gratification NOW rather than our security in the future, then it is inevitable that we will spend and spend.Ĭhinkee Tan asked us to be more conscious of where we spend our money, even with small amounts.
Most of the time, we think of spending rather than saving money for the future. Positive mindset + positive action = Positive Result! Change of mind, change of life. Negative mindset + negative action = Negative Result Wealth doesn't only come from "sipag at tiyaga" but "sipag, tiyaga, karunungan, and diskarte." We must choose positive people around us as well, as negativity is infectious. Since our mindset affects everything, a positive mindset makes us win in life better than being negative. Chinkee Tan says that the problem is not about the money but the mindset. We want to enjoy life, but the money doesn't always seem to be enough. Though most of the time, we have problems with money and debt. We all want to provide for ourselves and our families, and enjoy life. Here are the lessons that I've learned from him:
Chinkee Tan speak at least once in your life, I think writing doesn't come close to how well he speaks and how funny he is in real life. Tan delivers lessons on money in a real and funny way, the audience was bursting with laughter most of the time.
I'm glad I did! He was previously an actor alongside comedians such as Randy Santiago and Bayani Agbayani, but he left showbiz to pursue business.
When Victory Church invited him to speak for free yesterday night, I didn't miss the opportunity to attend. His insights on money and how we spend it hits me most of the time and inspires me to save rather than spend. ” tag=”h2″ align=”center” color=”#ffffff” bot=”30px”] Chinkee Tan091 style=”style2″ icon=”social_facebook”] facebook.I've been reading the blog of speaker Chinkee Tan for some time now.
