As I read the paper today, Manny Pacquaio is about to reap around $20 million dollars for his fight tomorrow with Oscar De la Hoya. While I’m extremely happy for Manny and proud of his accomplishments as a Filipino, I sometimes get concerned that most Filipinos start to believe in the ‘big paycheck’ mentality. What do I mean by the ‘big paycheck’ mentality? It’s the belief that one day, if you are lucky enough, you will receive a ‘one time big time’ amount of money!!!
This is why a lot of us line up every week to buy Lotto tickets. This is why people dream about becoming models, actors, singers, basketball players, contestants in reality TV shows and game shows. Of course there is the desire for fame but of course there is also a desire for immediate fortune.
First of all, being Manny Pacquaio is not easy work! Unfortunately, we don’t see all the hardships that Manny has been through. The hard work, perseverance and discipline he has.
What if we don’t have what it takes to be a professional athlete, a model, a singer or an actor? For most of us this is reality! What do we do? Are we just doomed for failure? Do we just line up everyday hoping that we will win Lotto or be a contestant in Wowowee?
The answer is you too can be wealthy beyond your wildest dreams with just small amounts of money saved every day. Did you know that if you save and invest PHP50 pesos per day when you finish college you can have at least PHP10,000,000.00 in cash on the day you retire. That’ just PHP50 a day!!! Imagine if you could save more!!!
It’s all about saving small amounts a day over time and you too can NEARLY be as rich as Manny!!!
