Do U give portion of your salary to anyone or you keep all your earnings alone?

hello thanks 1961! You are a very generous individual and also got a very big heart for you to give your salary to others without having any of your earned money. Anyway, im just so curious why you're doing so, ive known others who helped various people from family to charities etc., but i only got to know someone like you right now who gave everything to others not minding his self anymore. God bless and more luck to you.

Hi there thanks1961! You are doing just right, the people who breaks your trust are the one who did something wrong. With all the good intentions that you have with regards to helping others i just knew that every thing you lost to those people, whether you knew them or not will all be given back to you by fate. Life's just like that i guess, you could be blessed according to your intentions to your fellow people. Thanks for your comment about my daughter, she's my angel indeed. Have a nice, fruitful day ahead!

Thanks for your compliment. In fact, I used to donate a small percentage to charity directly from the salary and the company would deduct and it will get allocated whom ever it goes. For the last one year I could not do this. As being a good friend, I have helped a person by taking some bank loans. He took the money and run away. Apart from this loan I have 2-3 other loans also. Unexpectedly this happened, and on trust and confidence, I did not reveal the fact to any of my family members. I only briefed to you this fact that you may think that it is not fair to talk these things under a common forum. But I mentioned only to say that people who blindly keep trust and on the basis of this trust, people would take advantage. We can forget everything and hope a good day will come ahead. This wish will lead us to live happily. By-the-by, your daughter is so nice and convey my regards.

I hope i can be able to earn triple this year so that I can experience to have my earnings to be spend alone. Godbless you too!

Hello grecychunny26! Your case was very typical for us filipinos. Ive seen your profile that's why i knew. We are exposed to the fact that after we got ourselves into work, then we should help our family members who needed financial help. I know how hard it is to work a lot for others, as you've said, you envy those who could keep their earnings and buy all the things they wanted. Its a normal feeling, i guess but learn how to accept it for i am sure that this will not be your case forever. I believe that after you've done your part for your family you could liberate yourself already and began to look after your welfare at last. Good luck to you and i wanted to say that you're doing a great thing, you are good to your family, and you will be blessed for that. Have a nice day!

Let's pray to that! its not impossible, you deserve to enjoy what you worked for... who knows? Take care and have a nice day!

Hello frontvision101! what you've done to your income was not different with many of my fellow filipinos here in the Philippines. I didn't view your profile to check what's your nationality but here in our country, we value our money so much because of the fact that a portion of it will go straight to our family for whatever purpose it will benefit them. You are doing good, i must say. Aiming to help your family was good, provided that you knew that they're spending the money for a good cause. Good luck to you and more power!

I am a filipino. :) every word you said is right.

Hello kababayan! thanks a lot, have a nice day!

You'll get your chance sweetie. Never think otherwise. TATA.

Thanks for that saphrina, you're so sweet indeed. Take care!

Hello saphrina! What a great way to spend you're earnings! imagine you manage it yourself and you're doing it for yourself all alone too. Well, i never experienced that in my whole life. Ever since, my salary was shared by me to my mother, sister or brother and now with my husband. Its a good feeling though, good luck to you and have a nice day ahead!

Stay blessed too, take care always!!

Hello cloudie! you're so generous for giving portion of your money to your parents considering that your not being obliged by them to give some of your earnings to them. Well, i like what you've said that you're doing this out of love. If im your mother, i will surely be delighted with your kind gestures and ill be so proud to raise a good daughter just like you. Keep it up cloud, you're doing great and i believe that you will be much blessed for doing so. Take care and stay happy!

Hello rinzgca! You are so generous not thinking about your family alone but your church too. Ive know couple of individuals who gave 10 percent of their income straight to their church, what ive noticed however was, they still maintain their good, comfortable life and others became richer than before thinking that 10 percent of their income was gone month after month. Truly, God was just and above all, He just rewarded those people who never failed to give back what he gave in them. You're doing a good job rinzca keep it up and you will be blessed for that. More power and have a wonderful day ahead!

Hi! Thanks for the encouragement. Yes, I have noticed a similar occurrence as well. However, I do believe that when we give to the church our motivation should not be on what will be given to us in return but on pleasing God and obeying Him. It was commanded by God that we always give ten percent of what we have to Him. Thus, obedience should be our motivation. The blessings of God are just bonuses. Yes, God is just. :D

You're very much welcome rinzgca, i also believe it that way, whatever you give even if its for our fellowmen, we should not expect anything in return, more so with our dear Lord for He exactly knew our deepest secrets and even our hidden motives when we give something, so i love the way you said that we should do it in obedience with Him and not to expect something in exchange to what we give. Good luck and take care!

I believe that giving is better then receiving, and that to give we do receive, yes.

Hi there my friend! You're lucky enough to have all your combined earnings. Well, handle them accordingly so you could save a lot for your future plans. Its better to give than to receive. In your case, both of you are the one who give so keep it up and rest assured that you will receive more. I believe in that, do you? Have a nice day my friend, good luck!

Hello dicsyen! Good to know that you sounds so responsible in handling your income. Yes its true, giving something for your family will be a nice way in telling them how much you appreciate their effort in making you where you are now. I believe in that also, saving and investing some of our hard earned money will be a very good tool in ensuring that we could get something readily when we need it the most in the future. Good luck and have a nice week end to you!

Hello Ingkingderders! Well, all i can say is you're much luckier than the others because you're handling your own salary and budget them according to what you want (as you've said, after spending some to your monthly needs, then there's still a portion of it that you could spend with whatever you wanted like clothes). That's the good part of being single. What i could advice you is for you to take advantage of saving your money for your future needs. Its better that you have your own money so you can easily meet your needs in the future just in case you've got something to spend upon. Have a nice day and more power to you!

oh yes I would not have it any other way :)

Hi there climber7565! You are your own boss and you have all the right for it. Money related issues was very vital, so its good that you handle your own finances. Good luck and more power to you!

Hello rabajar! I am glad that you managed your finances well. It's good that you set a certein amount for everything you needed each month because this will ensure that everything will be accounted for. Dividing your income according to your needs and everyone else you wanted to share it to, ensures you somehow that you do not exceed with your limits, thus minimize your chance of having debts from someone else. Thanks a lot and have a nice week end!

Hello! that's so good to know! Being in a husband and wife relationship, its better if you will have a good tandem not just in romantic aspect but all aspects of your life especially in dealing with your finances. From this, you could both rest assured yourselves that all of your hard earned money will be spend accordingly. Saty to be that way and i assume that this will give you more reason to be close to each other for you allow yourselves to ask other's go signal for many important dealings with your money. Good luck and good night!

Hello macoy33! welcome to myLot! I knew that you're not earning yet but soon you will be if you will be active here in this great site. Im glad to know that you have your plans of sharing your future income to the rest of your family specially with your mom. She will be very much delighted once she knew that you will gave her portion of your future income. Helping your family was good, the more you help others, the more blessings you will reap remember that okay?! Take care and goodluck to your future endeavors!

Hello there! you're so good for doing those things to your siblings. Not everybody could do the same thing for their families so i salute you for being helpful and generous in sharing your financial assistance to your family. You're doing the right thing so keep it up. Wow! that's a great set up indeed, im used to budget our finances but with your case, you let your hubby do it, he must be good in handling your finances i suppose. Good luck and more power to you and your family!

Hello my friend salonga! Yes, i agree with you. Im a working mother too and as you said, our earnings goes to our pocket but we in turn divided them to our daily needs and monthly bills for water, telephone, internet etc. No man is an island as they say, we cannot live alone and we need to still look up for the welfare of others specially our relatives who need help. That's the common case i always experience. I don't usually have financial problems by myself but im problematic because of the people who surrounded me who ask for my financial help. Well, i manage to just absorb it all and still think that im much blessed so i must help those who need. More power to you my friend and good luck!

Hi cbjones! It's so nice of you for being grateful to what your parents have done for you in the last 18 years of your life. It is said that parents have the obligation in making sure that their children grew up properly, it's true but it was so nice to hear that some children return back the goodness of what their parents have shown them. Good luck to you, and more power!

Hello Dangey2009! Nice to know that.A lot of us worked to support the needs of our family including you and me. Have a nice day and be happy always!

Hello cutie 18f! yes i agree with you for saying those. It was not a requirement but shouldering other household expenses of your family who let you live in comfort with them was indeed a very nice gesture to return back their goodness upon you. Continue doing this thing and im just so sure that person who never had any hesitation to give something to others could expect more blessings from above. Good luck and more power!

Hello juggerogre! wow! that's great! just imagine how good you are for being part of the future success of your sister. What you're doing right now was indeed very admirable. I can sense that you can handle your finances very well so keep it up, saving at an early age could give you much better advantage for the future to come. Im also interested in investing on mutual funds hope i could realize that one of this days. Take care and good luck!

Hello there JoaniZik! your case was not different from ours, my husband also gave me all his earnings including all his money coming from his sidelines. Im the one who just gave him his budget for the day and just asks me for what he needed so i could buy it all for him. He allowed me to do this because im much better in doing our budget and he knows that i could take good care of his hard earned money. I believe that all husbands and wives should have a good tandem in all aspects including their finances. I agree with you that budgeting was a serious issue and we should really learn and do this wisely. Good luck!
