turtle power!

i used to watch this when i was a kid! leo, mikey, donnie and raph; four fictional pizza loving anthropomorphic creatures named after popular renaissance artists, trained in the art of ninjutsu by their mutant rat sensei called Splinter, living in the storm sewers of New York City and battling crime and evil... that's the teenage mutant ninja turtles for you! As a child, every cartoon i watch was taken seriously. every battle stressed me, every villain unnerved me, and every victory was heaved with a sigh of relief! this was no different, i watched this along with my other childhood "friends", the power rangers, 5 man, jet man, masked rider and they never failed to entertain me. haha

it's not surprising to note though that ninja turtles started out as a comic book before hitting international fame and being adapted to different media streams and other forms of merchandise. the very first tmnt comic was published by Mirage Studios in 1984. with the team's effort in expanding their merchandise opportunities, they went from comic books, to action figures, toys, animated series, live action series and even film features! these turtles have truly marked this world! and even until now, their ongoing animated series from nickelodeon is continuously garnering positive feedback from its usual fans and of course, the kids!

turtle power! >XD

haaay

okay this sucks. my performance is a flop. clearly, i can't think well enough in this ground. maybe it's time to look for something that doesn't require full utilization of the left hemisphere of my brain. cos you see, i'm all maxed out and still unproductive. i am so not for this. forget about my weakness training blabber last time. this life? it's eating me whole.

yeah yeah that's what i always say.

i have a dream

and that dream is to have at least 1 million in investments! i want to buy a car and at least 200 square meters of land where my house will be. i want all thaaaaat, but as a young professional, even if i worked an entire 24 hours a day, i wouldn't even lay close to that goal if all i did was SAVE. but you see, my parents are financial planners (and i am too, except that i'm still half baked on the concept) and they're in an industry whose purpose is to help people grow their money, not just by saving but also by investing (in penny stocks yo).

here's a simple difference, savings is straightforward. what you save is what you get. but investments are different, what you put in there may or not be what you'll get back in a year. it could be more, it could be less, you could earn double, but it could also drop to 0. in short, there is no guarantee. we call it high-risk, high-yield plans. along with that risk of losing is the hope of earning much more than you could have saved on your own.

but of course, you're not coming into this empty handed (with just hope and risk haha). there are many ways you can quantify that hope. if you're a trader, you can watch the stock market go up and down, you can observe various stock picks, and you can get advice from a lot of trading professionals and individuals out there.

there's so much you can do with your money that letting it sit on the bank which promises no more than 2.75% annual interest, when in reality inflation can shoot up to 3%. that leaves your money with a diminished purchasing power you know! so think it over. diversify your funds. take the risk. INVEST >:D
