That cycle continued on for quite sometime, until I realized that I'm not getting any younger and still I have nothing for the future. Good thing our office held a free seminar regarding money management and my office mates told me about Bo Sanchez, you can Google him if you want. Now I want to share what I have learned from him regarding money management. This may not apply to all but this is the general idea. Savings is   NOT SALARY - EXPENSES = SAVINGS;   IT SHOULD BE   SALARY - SAVINGS = EXPENSES .  This means that once we receive our salary we should immediately deduct our savings from our salary and live off the remaining money.
