SAVINGS IS LIKE A LIFESAVER



Sometime in 2014, I cannot forget this incident. My son had no more milk to drink. I pulled out my wallet and it had only 50 pesos for my fare. I borrowed money to my friends but they refused because they also needed the money. 

I inquired my Landbank ATM card but no available balance because it was 2 days before the payday. I went to my cooperative to secure a loan but I was denied because I used all the loan windows. I got stressed where to get the money to buy milk.

Then, I remembered that I had a cooperative savings passbook in my drawer. Lo and behold, I saw an available balance of 500 pesos. I went to the coop again and withdrew the 400 pesos. 

I share this story so that you can learn from me and for you to start your savings program. 

Savings is a like a lifesaver. Someday, it will save you.
