  • Bilang sss voluntary member. ang budgetko ay para sa monthly salary credit p13.500 lang. Gusto kong mag invest at kaya ko pero ayaw kong i maximize ang aking contribution. Ang taas naman kasi ng standard nyo. Buti pa ang pag ibig makamasa.

  • Gusto kong mag-invest din sa SSS, kaso nakakabahala yung mga balita, gaya na lang nung sinasabi na fat bonuses of SSS execs, and also the issues related to pension hikes, "......Chairman Valdez said that Finance Secretary Dominguez is keen on securing SSS funds to last at least until 2039, but granting the entire P2,000 pension increase in 2017 will shorten fund life to only until 2025, instead of its projected life to last until 2042....". Nakakabahala lang po.

  • MP2 is better that SSS PESO fund as the former is more flexible and offer better devidends.
