So here goes.
Secondly, make my second million. I did the first in 2000. As a gift to my wife in our old age, and not to be dependent on our children for support. I guess that's practical. I've seen this in the lives of my in-laws. Such a blessing to see them even give to us in their old age. Me too.
Thirdly, visit my sisters in Canada. This we plan to do next year, God willing. It's such a good idea to once in while think that we can do this. I want to see their beautiful houses, which I only see in Facebook. Go to places where they've been and they've promised to bring us around.
Fourthly, to see my children all settled down properly. Happily married with the right guy. I have three children, two girls and one daughter, hehehe. One is happily married to which I have a handsome grandson, Xander. Two more to go.
Lastly, to see my two income stream a reality. I've recently started investing in stocks as my option for saving money. Long story short, it's been my desire to have a taste of this. My mentor, Bo Sanchez, is helping me in this. The other one is in real estate. I am helping my friend and godson, who owns Aceland Properties & Development increase their market share in the townhouse market segment.
There you are. I am sure you have your own too.

i am inspired by your list #2. maybe i should tell my husband to start doing that. i mean we should start doing that. because for now what we are saving for is the house. one step at a time i guess.
ReplyDeleteI want to do #2 as well. I'm not married yet but seeing my relatives & even my bf's parents without income when they retired is quite saddening. Sometimes they look like they're begging money from their children ( T-T). I'm just glad my bf is filial to his parents but still there are times when he can't give them allowance. :/
ReplyDeleteIt's also my dream to visit Israel- touch the Wailing Wall and to visit the places where Jesus was .... I also dream to earn millions not only for myself but to bless others:)
ReplyDeletegreat list! :) want to see Israel one day too :)
ReplyDeleteits good to have a plan. But I want to visit Palestine instead of Israel. Egypt instead of Israel. Jordan Instead of Israel as long as the Jewish state treats the Palestines as second class humans or the way they were treated during the reign of Hitler in Germany.
ReplyDeleteHope you get to do everything on your list.
ReplyDeleteI want to be a millionaire too! =)
ReplyDeletei'm really inspired by this post. i am only starting to learn about personal finance and how important financial literacy is! of course mainly because we want to have more freedom to be with our family and to travel.
ReplyDeleteWow. You made your first million 12 yrs ago! They say that the first million is the hardest to achieve, the next one is easier. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI believe in your #2. I've seen that problem with my grandparents which sparked sibling rivalries as to who should do this and that. Not that I want to leave my parents alone, we can't provide for them all the time. We are instilling this value to our son so he understands the value of saving at an early age.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your second million! By God's grace we will all have the chance to get that!
Productive thoughts. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteSimilar pala ang list natin esp number 1, yan din ang una sa list ko.
ReplyDeleteButi ka pa you made your first million na. Ako kelan kaya. Sana this year. haha!

Love your list. I too have a great desire to journey to Israel.
ReplyDeleteITs our desire too to see Israel, being as Christian Catholic to see the place of Jesus Christ, before we get too old and be successful in my real estate practice beyond Land Bank. :-).
ReplyDeleteI wish i could travel Italy before i get old, that's my dream :))
ReplyDeleteI deem these 5 things are feasible if we save up, work harder and spend wisely. :D good luck and hope you are able to accomplish them. God bless!
ReplyDeleteBo Sanchez is my mentor too. He is so inspiring. Though we are not making a lot yet, we are getting there. The wisdom and inspiration Bo has reached to us changed a lot of our lifestyle in general. :)
ReplyDeleteInspiring list! I learned a lot:)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing :)
It was really great to know that there are people who really think things what they'll do before getting older. Great selection!
ReplyDeleteI like the second one "to make another million". At times like this we all need to get different sources of income and I think having shares on stocks and other investments are one of them. but of course we to start in the beginning.
ReplyDeleteWow! you mean you already made some millions? nice! i hope i could do the same before i reach the age of 35. :)
ReplyDeleteI also wanna do the first one. :D
ReplyDeleteHope I can also make millions like what you did. :D
