We can say that a person is financially stable if he can afford daily necessities without relying on
a paycheck for a month, it also includes having a retirement plan, and emergency fund, and being
capable of buying things you want without affecting the budget for daily living.
2.Was there any experience that you may share about being confronted with a financial crisis or
being scammed? What have you learned from the said experience?
I do have experience when I am confronted with a financial crisis or being scammed. As I am
living humble life, I do not feel this financial crisis unless there are special needs. Like wanted to
join the yearly educational tour and recently when my father is in need of surgery, till his funeral.
Until now my sister still has huge debt under her name. And another situation when I ended up in
a financial crisis is when the little investment that I made a hundred percent profit which I did not
pull out, end up losing its value after the pandemic. Though the investment is still there the loss
value was huge 99%. And the time when I am scammed is during the pandemic. As I have been
earning online since I started around 2017 or 2018, I don’t have many funds, even if I made 100%
+ earnings, the earnings are just enough. During a pandemic, I am in search of other ways to earn
online. I earn some but there is a time that I was scammed. The financial crisis that I experienced
reminded me of having an emergency fund, and insurance. And in the field where I experience
being scammed. I do not feel much remorse as it is part of the field that I enter and I am well
aware that I may end up losing profit due to scams and, if I do not monitor the market properly.
There are saying that I encounter, “If you can’t afford to lose the money then do not even try”.
Well, It doesn’t stop me from wanting to earn online, even though I am not doing it for now as I
don’t have time for now, and the source of capital, I’ll be back in that field. The saying that I
mentioned is a reminder that does not to use the money for daily needs, use the extra money.
