    I never found income to be a good indicator of wealth as it is elusive by nature. That's why private banks won't really care about your income but more of your net worth.

    Actually ayan (salary braggarts) mga worst-enemies ng mom ko. Since she was never formally employed in a company -- yun tipong pure housewife siya, she has a habit of under spending a lot on the basis that the money isn't hers.

    But pagabot niyan sa Department Store, all she'll need is her BDO points. Pati ako humihingi at times since she accumulates them more than she CAN spend (knowing her Scrooginess). Store clerks always get surprised pagnakita Rewards card swipe niya since she roams around using her butas-butas shirts and Secosana bag.. lagi nalang ako aliw na aliw when they see the remaining amount since one time the manager even asked for reconfirmation sa sobrang malayong discrepancy ng attire and status.

    I once joked whether we can buy condos using the points. Shame na bawal

    kakatawa mga nagyayabang ng sweldo

    they lack perspective. kelangan parin nila magtrabaho no?!

    di ba nila naisip na meron mga tao hindi kailangan magtrabaho at may pumapasok na pera?

    In our case, baliktad. We need to go to work since we know we have funds we can tap and para hindi maging tamad... in order to tap those funds, we need to work. No work = no food policy parin hahaha..

    Yun nakakainis dito is that since our work is family-business related.. anak ng tipaklong, I'm not even minimum wage. Oh well, at least I don't pay for our bills.. but gas cost is really killing me ever since I began paying them myself versus support-through-college. Yun tipong.. "Alabang? Ha?.. bahala kayo!"

    kasali ba dito yung mga taong kada presyo nagsasabi ng presyo... kagaya pag kumain sa restaurant, rereklamo kunwari na malaki nagastos nya (take note sasabihin pa yung presyo)....
