The Similarities of Bonsai and Human Life

This mother believes that that best way to teach kids about life is to show how we live it. Of course, it helps as well if there are constant reminders aside from our guidance.

Just this afternoon, I visited The Podium at Mandaluyong City. There are beautiful and impressive bonsai arts on display on the ground floor and second level of the mall. As I look at each plant, I couldn’t help but equate bonsai pruning to navigating life.

How is that possible? Let me go slow.

7 Golden Rules of Aging Wisely and Gracefully

When my husband and I started to build our family, we left my parent’s house.  Many say it is prudent for young couples to stand on their own and live independently.  I guess, being out of our elders’ wings made us responsible and better parents for our children.  

About six months ago, though, we returned to my mother’s place.  She has been dealing with a lot of stress, and it is prudent to have someone by her side.  I opted to be that person, and I brought my family with me.

Life Settlement: A good investment option

Momi Berlin shares a rather new investment option for her, Life Settlement, as part of a sponsored post with Mason Finance.

At age 23, I got life insurance from a financial advisor. I find the need for a contingency plan. This contingency plan is to pay for my final expenses and save my family from any financial burden my death may bring. I also thought of my future kids. Though still single that time, I imagine myself having a family and kids. And I want to make sure my children are well taken care of and can afford a quality college education. The money from my life insurance would cover such need. Of course, I also thought of using the money for my retirement and somehow enjoy the last few years of my life traveling. I would want or my family to enjoy the money I invested and at the same time keep me covered for life as long as I am paying my premium contribution.
