1. Do you have financial
goal(s) ?
Page 3
• Financial goal motivates and
guides you.
Page 4
• Gives you answer to the
question, "Does spending
money on this gets me closer
to my goal?"
Page 5
• The goal should be specific,
have an amount, and a
deadline.
Page 6
• My financial goals:
o $100,000 at 30 yrs old
o $1,000,000 at 40 yrs old
o $10,000,000 at 50 yrs old

2. Do you know how much
you spend every month?

• What is not measured
is not managed.

• Answers the popular question,
"Where did all my money go?"

• My answer:
Yes, I track my expenses on a
spreadsheet.

3. Do you spend more
than what you earn?
Page 12
• Live according to what you have,
not what you want.
Page 13
• Never take consumer debt, those
stuff lost value and you pay more
due to interest.
Page 14
• Remember your goal before you
spend, "Does spending money on
this gets me closer to my goal?"
Page 15
• My answer:
No, I spend only around 40% of what
I earn every month.

4. Do you have emergency
savings fund (6x monthly
expenses)?

• Provides buffer when large amount
of money is needed urgently.

• Save you from bad and limited
financial options.

• We can't predict the future, but we
can be ready when it happens.

• My answer:
Yes, I have more than 12x monthly
expense emergency savings fund.

5. Do you invest your money
with an average return
greater than inflation rate?
Page 22
• Today's $100 worth only $55
20 years from now.
Page 23
• You will need more amount of
money to sustain your current
lifestyle in the future.
Page 24
• My answer:
Not completely, I'm still working on this
one.
