How do you spend your first paycheck? A finance expert weighs in
When one begins to start earning their own money, one of the most daunting tasks is learning how to manage it. Senior Financial Advisor, Certified Associate Financial Planner, and content creator Antonette Aquino shares tips on how to build good financial habits for yourself as early as your first job, or if you’ve been working several years and want to improve on your money management:
- Prioritize spending on needs and avoid splurging on things that will not bring you value in the future. Aquino also says that we can treat ourselves once in a while to enjoy the fruits of our hard work…for as long as it doesn’t jeopardize our future.
- Pay yourself first. Before paying for bills, commit to setting a percentage of your income to savings and investments. This includes putting money into your investment accounts and buying insurance. Make sure to do this consistently!
- Use the bucketing method to separate your finances. For people who are still trying to get the hang of saving, Aquino recommends trying out the bucketing method which allows you to have a clearer view of your spending and saving habits when all your funds are separated. Instead of having all of your money in one savings account, It is best to have four kinds of accounts:
- Operating Fund - Allocate money for recurring expenses such as
quarterly, monthly, or annual bills in this account.
- Emergency Fund – Allocate 20% of your income to this account for
unforeseen expenses such as a medical emergency or a job loss.
- Financial Freedom Fund – This account is for the achievement of
life goals and dreams, which include retiring early or going back to
school.
- Happy Account – This account is for all of your leisurely expenses like travel.
- When you earn more, don’t immediately upgrade your lifestyle. If you continuously level up your belongings and lifestyle every time you earn more money, you will never be able to hit your targets. Remind yourself to live below your means until you’ve begun to hit them.
- The longer you put off investing, the harder you’ll need to work to get to the same level of financial freedom as someone who starts investing earlier. If you start saving and investing as soon as you start earning, you will reap the benefits of financial freedom sooner rather than later.
- The importance of saving money is simple: It allows you to enjoy greater security in your life. If you have cash set aside for emergencies, you have a fallback should something unexpected happen. Once you’re in the habit of saving, you’ll forget there was ever a time when you didn’t save. In this area of life, the habits you build will make all the difference.

Nothing beats the comfort of having a home-cooked meal, and if there’s someone who knows a thing or two about preparing delectable dishes for the family, it’s Ninong Ry. He brings his special recipes to life with the help of GLife, sourcing all the best ingredients and kitchen gadgets to ensure his dishes are always outstanding.
A feature on the GCash app, GLife brings together a curated line-up of merchants and services into one dashboard to allow users to shop for what they need effortlessly in just a few quick taps.
Whether he’s looking for the freshest vegetables and meats or he’s on the hunt for new equipment to level up his kitchen, Ninong Ry finds it all on GLife. Take note of these tips from everyone’s favorite ninong, and get ready to elevate your home cooking!
Tip 1: Great food needs great cookware, and when you plan to make steak at home, you need a sturdy cast iron pan.
“Lahat ng gusto mong i-sear, masesear mo ng maayos dito kumpara sa ibang material,” explains Ninong Ry. “Mas mataas ang searing, mas masarap ang luto, mas mag eenjoy ang pamilya.”
A nice cast iron pan may be purchased for PHP 630.00 from Rampage City on GLife. Through this tried and tested technique using a cast iron pan, you can begin having epic steak nights at home!
Tip 2: Make the smart choice with your sandwiches by grilling them. You can even get creative and grill with a waffle iron!
With
a waffle iron, the outside of your sandwich becomes crispy, but the centre
remains soft and gooey, especially when you add lots of cheese! Ninong Ry
recommends the Sonifer SF-6043, a
portable waffle iron that costs only PHP 674.00 on GLife.
Tip 3: Need help in picking the right kind of beef for different dishes? Get the finest Sirloin or Salpicao cuts + homemade steak sauce from Chingolo Deli.
Chingolo Deli is Ninong Ry's go-to deli for meats since they're sourced from grass-fed herds. Their meats are hormone and antibiotic free, so they’re not only delicious, but also healthier for you and your family.
The
Bolzico meat at Chingolo Deli is a
100% Argentinian certified grass-fed Angus beef, but they also have a large
selection of meats from which you can prepare a superb sirloin dish or beef
salpicao dinner. They also sell homemade steak sauce to go with their prime
steak cuts. The best part? They’re all available on your GCash app thanks to
GLife!
Tip 4: Make the smart choice for more savings when shopping and choose PureGo for the freshest and most affordable grocery finds.
With thousands of products from hundreds of recognized and trustworthy brands, PureGo makes online grocery shopping simple. “PureGo is incredibly convenient,” Ninong Ry promises. "Kumpleto sila sa grocery goods, kaya di na naming kailangang lumabas, and sure na sariwa ang mga karne at gulay nila, kaya tiwala ako na maganda.”
