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 first thing that you will enter your desired monthly contribution. Note: Allowed minimum monthly contribution is P500.00.


3   3. Then, you will be asked your Dividend Payout preference. A dividend is like your income. According to the PAG-IBIG website, MP2 savings earn tax-free dividends which are derived from no less than 70% of Pag-IBIG Fund's annual net income. You may receive your dividends annually or after the 5-year payment period (end-term). I personally chose to receive dividends annually so I can invest it to other money-making schemes/ investment vehicls. 


4 4. Next, you will decide on your mode of payment: salary deduction, over-the-counter, or through any accredited PAG-IBIG collecting partners. Of course, for employees like me, it is less hassle if the contribution is salary deducted.

5 5. Lastly, you will input your source of funds. See the options below.


After filling in the items, an electronic form will be generated. You will print this form and bring it to the PAG-IBIG office for filing.

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...

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...
