yung klasmeyt ko nung college ang business noon ng erpats niya sanglaan ng mga oto. halos sa isang linggo iba-iba dala niyang oto. buong kalye halos mapuno ng sasakyan. nagreklamo na mga kapitbahay nila. sa kapitbahay na sila nakikiparada.

btt: yung barkada kong mahangin na nagtrabaho sa ismart laging binibida yung sweldo niyang 50k. tapos hk kada linggo, eh sa gobyerno ako noon sweldo ko hamak na katiting lang sa kinikita niya. t*ngina, tanung ng tanong kung nagkano sweldo ko at bakit di pako umalis doon.
ayun, nabulilyaso si kumag. pumatol sa may asawa na rin, nayari siya kaya tanggal. ngayon may utang sa isang barkada namin. ilan taon ng di nababayaran.
ayoko sanang manuya pero yabang eh.

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?

This, is what I see what some lack today: Perspective on what is real or not, and perspective on what matters in life indeed.

It's okay to work hard and have the fine things in life - I myself have my goals and wants, and I admire and respect those who were able to attain that through honest means. But at the end of the day, do these things you have matter and really define you? Or would you rather that the way you use these things to make the good difference, is what will define you beyond the grave?

The successful people I know dont have to work as hard as they did before and yet the money keeps coming in. They know where to put their money and keep quiet about it. They're very low key and yet I learn of how much effort they put into helping others in a good way (read: long term). Tahimik pero matinik.

**SiRbossR** · January 24th, 2014 12:13 PM

Most people that I know that's usually like that are people who has no friends. Ung sa kanila lang ung pera nila, mayabang at sobrang kuripot.

Braggart pala.

Ang malalim na ilog, tahimik. Ang mababaw, maingay.

**uls** · January 24th, 2014 01:29 PM

those people dont know how stupid they sound

that 100K or 150K/month salary they're bragging about.. monthly allowance lang yan ng mga trust fund baby

they should be asking themselves if they'll have that kind of money coming in even if they can no longer work

the difference between the wealthy and the working class is the wealthy have assets that generate income while the working class have to physically go to work to have income

That's where a lot of us are in right now I think. However, while a lot of people are willing to be salaried workers forever and are content with gradually increasing salaries, I personally feel that it's better to aspire to have enough investments and self-sustaining businesses so that money comes in even if you decide to spend your day just bonding with your family or taking a leisurely stroll at the park.

Sadly, I came from a family that neither invested nor ran businesses, so I still have so much to learn on making the most of my money. So now, I'm sticking to being an employee to learn as much as I can, while saving up for investments.

Then there are some who don't work and don't involve themselves in the family business. We know a family na when it came to the 3rd generation, the businesses folded so they had close it down.

**_Cathy_** · January 24th, 2014 04:45 PM

Most of my family have been in the corporate side and I can say that one can still pretty much earn well if you plan your career right and make the right investments on the side. Timing matters a lot and if you have a good reputation, you'll find yourself sitting on the boards of companies even. If you build up your asset base, that can really help you later on.

Ikaw nagbabayad, Uls?

Pwede umutang ng 60K? There's this set of rims i want for my racing-racing car. It'll make me the coolest guy in the gas station tambayan this weekend :D

Salary braggart are too judgemental lalo na sa looks. I have my own story to tell.

I was invited sa isang inuman. Then heto na si yabang na naka SUV ( hindi ko na babanggitin kung anong SUV ). Napunta kwentuhan sa taxes at kung saan napupunta. Nagyabang na itong si SUV man. 36k daw average tax nya enough na magpawseldo dalawang teacher buwan buwan. Tapos tinanong nya katabi nya na nakasuot lang ng tshirt na may punit, short at tsinelas " Kaw brad magkano monthly tax mo? " To which the guy replied " nasa 5k lang .." . Then bumanat na naman " Tax ko pa lang mas malaki pa sa gross pay mo. ". Hindi na nakatiis yung may birthday dahil kumpare nya yung guy na naka suot ng damit na may punit " Eh hindi nagbabayad ng tax yan. 2 million ang net income nyan buwan buwan. Apat na beses magpalit ng sasakyan sa isang taon. ". The guy he was referring to is a logger and operates several saw mills.
