Tithing and Financial Freedom

March 29th, 2009

tithing1

A few Sunday’s back, instead of the usual scenario where I follow up my kids to bring their tithes to the Lord, they proudly came to me prepared.

I have been instilling to my children the value of tithing and how this should be handled.

A tithe is giving back to the Lord the 10% of your earning as a sign of respect. It’s not about the amount, rather the act of worship.

It’s NOT an Old Covenant requirement but a biblical practice long before Moses set up the Old testament worship rules. Abraham gave a tenth of his loot to God even before the nation of Israel was established.

The principle of tithing was established during the creation, in the Garden of Eden, God gave Adam and Eve everything but gave strict instruction not to touch the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil (that’s the tithe).

Another F.F.

March 15th, 2009

Allow me to discuss another F.F., but this is still not the “friends with benefit” practice of young couples :-D

This FF is about the dream of ordinary people, those working in 8-12 hour shifts, those whose aspiration is to give their families good lives at the same time, spend more time with them.

Yes, I am talking about Financial Freedom.

Financial Freedom simply means  your money and assets work hard for you.

Employees, whether in blue collar or white collar jobs are of the same situation. They both work hard to earn money– having a regular job plus a little business here and part time job there for extra income.  Those earning much work hard to pay the mortgage of their house and car, education of their kids and savings for their retirement.  Ordinary laborers, on the other hand, work hard just to survive.  Both, however, can be trapped for good in the corporate rat race unless they strive to be financially free.

How do you know if you are financially free?

A Time To Invest?

March 11th, 2009

Early today, I met with agents of a bank to dicuss their financial products, from dividends enhanced life insurance, education and pension plan. We also discussed a little of their Pre Need product since this industry is fighting for survival.  I’m not sure, though,  if they also carry  travel health insurance.

Though, I find most of their products enticing, my objective is to get the best proposal for the retirement plan of the company.

It made me think though, whether this is the best time buy a plan, and invest.
