I have more than 15yrs experience in investing in Philippine stock market, unit investment trust funds, and mutual funds. I also trade forex and CFDs. I am also a financial advisor.

When I started investing, there are very few references similar to this blog. In my small way, i wanted to share my experiences by combining classical approaches to modern technologies. Mixing both my interests in personal finance and behavioral economics. Insights would come from my engineering, management background, and readings.

Click around, drop some comments, and come back from time to time and let’s learn together.
