Why you should join the Philippine Red Cross membership program?

I was supposed to write about this last month but I waited for the cards to arrive and I also got busy with work. Finally have the time to write about this!

Last month, our local Red Cross went to our work place and offered us membership to their program/organization. I immediately applied for it since I like the benefits that goes along with it. I was also able to apply for my daughter so she gets the same benefit as mine. 

There are many types of membership. I applied for the Classic membership for my daughter who is 5 years old (Classic is for students only) for an annual fee of P60.00 only and Premier Bronze  for myself for an annual fee of P150.00. Yes, that's how cheap it is!


Our membership has accidental, disablement, and dismemberment benefits, burial benefit, and hospital daily allowance as you can see on the photo below.

Some of you might say, it's just waste of money. I see it differently. It's actually preparing for something you are not prepared of. I personally saw a road accident a couple of months back and it's something that you cannot predict to happen to you. It's better to be prepared than be sorry, right? 

I'm really praying though that I won't be able to use this because it would only mean that I am healthy, alive, and kicking!  


After application, you will receive these cards as proof to your membership to the program. Just make sure you tell your family about this membership so the benefits can be availed of if something happens to you. But pray that won't happen! Hehehe.

FICCO Healthcare Program: Most Affordable HMO in the Philippines

As a mother and homemaker, my top priority is always my daughter. That is the reason why I am very much into investments and insurances. I want to protect her, her home, and her future. There are so many what-ifs in life and these double once we get married and have children. Just like any other aspect of our lives, our family life is not always high. Sometimes we experience challenges and problems and most often than not, we are not prepared for it.  But there are certain things that we can actually prepare for. One of which is something to do with our health. These days, the food that we eat and the environment that we are in can give us sickness. And when it comes to health problems, it can drain our finances and we can even go into debts just to pay for the cost of medicines, check-ups, and (knock on wood) hospitalizations. Getting an HMO these days is no longer a luxury. It is a necessity, especially for average-income generating families like ours who could not afford the...

Why and How to Start Investing in PAG-IBIG MP2 Savings Program?

It's been a while since I wanted to invest in PAG-IBIG MP2 , a voluntary savings program with a 5-year term for all PAG-IBIG Fund members which earns dividends. You can get your dividends either annually or after the term (5-year). The higher you save, the more dividend you will get.   From the year 2016 to 2018 the average  MP2 dividend  rate in the past three years (2016-2018) is at 7.65%. It's not that bad compared to a regular savings program in banks. I finally got the chance to "enroll" myself. It is easier nowadays because you can start your application online. If you are interested, follow the instructions below on how you can also start investing PAG-IBIG's MP2. 1.  Go to pagibigfundservices.com and you will be asked to provide your PAG-IBIG MID No, Last name, First name, and Date of Birth. 2   2.  You will be directed to a new page where you can view your PAG-IBIG profile. On the right side of the screen, the firs...

I was scammed!

I am not really an avid fan of online shopping but there were times I bought stuff online just because they were so cheap as compared to ones that were sold in the malls. I am also very meticulous in buying things online. I would compare prices, read comments and reviews, and even check the background or reliability of the sellers and the products. So, I never really thought I’d be a victim of my own doing. Just recently, I came across a Facebook ad that was so deceiving that I ended up buying the item only to regret it later on. Instaclean Facebook ad So, there was this Facebook ad from Instaclean that just popped out in my newsfeed out of nowhere. It was an ad for a cleaning product, a foam cleaner that would supposedly instantly remove dirt and make things new simply by spraying and a little scrubbing. I was actually looking for a product like that for my car chairs and living room sofas, so the product really enticed me. Just like many people, I viewed the video and I f...
