SAVE TO INVEST

Save to Invest in order to earn more. Nowadays, people are getting wiser with their money. It's either they save it or invest it. These two words are somehow similar, you will still get your money in the end, but saving is just keeping your money and you can have it anytime while investing is also saving your money through the purchase of assets, and letting it grow overtime. Though the latter will take sometime to dispose, but we are talking about the PROFITS from these assets.Here's the geez, save for a while, little by little, until you will have some amount to invest.

One very good portfolio to invest on is the real estate in the Philippines. Investment in property somehow will have a high chance of long term appreciation. Definitely, you will be very happy with your property gain. Long term appreciation is good but another easy money investment is the rental which you earn from your investments in a house or  condominium unit.

This does not mean that we should just invest in a property anywhere. I believe that a property's rate of appreciation depends with the kind of developer and the quality of project you have. These are the considerations that we should keep in mind.  :)

Oohhh. I will be posting soon about the developer that I love in Iloilo Philippines. I am sure you will like it.

VISA EXTENSION - MALAYSIA EXIT (Singapore) - Whats and Hows Answered

I have been blogging here and there, only to realize that some points are missing in my post,

VISA EXTENSION - MALAYSIA EXIT (Singapore).

That was, on 10.10.10, more than two (2) years ago. Let me figure out what exactly we did during my Malaysia exit in order to extend my Singapore Visa. My apologies because my memory is fully loaded to recall but here are some of the important details behind my successful U-turn.

We left Singapore around 12 noon and took the bus at Kranji Station. It was easy for me to pass the Immigration Officers in leaving Singapore and entering Malaysia. We had lunch and went shopping because that was really my friend's birthday.

We were at Malaysia Immigration at around 4 o'clock and that was my sort-of-dooms day. Guess what? The officer did not allow me to exit Malaysia. He said it was illegal because I only arrived and left Malaysia at the same day. I should have stayed there longer. He was telling me that I should fly to Kuala Lumpur and go back to Philippines. Even I reasoned out that my stuffs were in Singapore and my scheduled return to Philippines was on the 13th of October. He still insisted until my friend came to rescue me. That was a long conversion. I was trembling and was about to cry. Ouuucch!  Since, I was new in Singapore and Malaysia, understanding Singlish or their English was hard for me. I'm sorry to have said this. But it was until I heard my friend say, "How much will it cost us?" Everything became clear. He asked me to pay him $50, put it inside my passport and went at the end of the line again.

What a relief. Whuew! It was not yet the last, I still have to face another officer in Singapore. It is true that you take all the risk with you when you have to extend your visa thru Malaysia exit. I took the risk, my prayers and faith with me.

OMG! I wanted to cry. I was so scared when we arrived Singapore Immigration in Woodlands. The magic trick was, choose your Immigration Officer and face your fear. Really, we chose our officer. They said that Malay men are nice and attracted to girls. Though he was a Malay but we were in Singapore, so we thought we were safe. While we were lining up, one person before us was at the officer's counter for a long time. I was scared and wanted to transfer but it might be obvious. Face my fear. He only asked about what I did in Malaysia and if I wanted to extend my stay in Singapore. My answer was firm, "...NO, I'm going back to Philippines on the 13th."

That saved my day.
