Last Tuesday January 24th 2017, I was invited to the Market Outlook 2017 of Sun life Philippines. Even though I worked in the bank before I never gotten around to learn more about investing in the stock market as I was more focused in saving for my retirement fund. Sun Life opened my eyes to more opportunities that 2017 offers even if the market shows us a short-term volatility the forecast is still positive with a growth on the GDP of 6.8% to 7%.
Mr. Michael Enriquez, Sun Life’s chief investing officer said that with the growth of consumer and government’s upcoming plans on infrastructure spending the outlook remains bullish . He enumerated some factors that boost the economy on the consumers end which I have listed below for your reference.
Although the market looks promising it is quite alarming that there is weakening of Peso against the U.S. Dollar equivalent to Php50-$1 and plus the drop of the PSEI (Philippine Stock Exchange Index) . This might be the reason why some of us are very cautious in terms of taking risk. Mr. Michael Enriquez assures us that this is a good time to buy when the stock prices are cheaper as it will reap more gain once the market goes up.
As for those who are already invested in Sun life Prosperity fund, it already yielded result as per Sun Life Asset Management Company, Inc.President Valerie Pama said “We’re delighted that our investors are reaping the rewards of their commitment to invest for the long-term, and we hope to see more Filipinos treading the same path so they too can experience financial security,”
Taking Risk in Mutual Fund Investment
Investing for the future is critical nowadays and with more Filipino’s are taking risk especially millenials who became young investors due to the long-term gains. Not everybody have the luxury of time, effort and determination in learning how to trade and check the movements of the market. So mutual funds is one solution in regards to diversifying the investments. I have summarized the definition and benefits of having a mutual fund.
What is a Mutual Fund?
Benefits of Sun Life Prosperity Funds
Affordability: For a minimum of Php 5,000, one can jump start an investment account and be on his/her way to prosperity.
Higher potential returns*: The Sun Life Prosperity Funds is a family of funds that caters to various risk appetites and investment horizons. Whether you’re a conservative or aggressive, short term or long term investor, at least one fund is suitable for you to achieve your investment goals.
Diversification: For as low as Php 5,000, your investment is instantly diversified among different financial vehicles in order to minimize risk.

Professional Portfolio Management: The Sun Life Prosperity Funds are managed by top notch investment professionals who are dedicated to ensuring that the funds generate the best returns over the long term.
Global Expertise: Sun Life Asset Management Company, the fund manager and distributor of the Sun Life Prosperity Funds is a member of the Sun Life Financial Group of Companies operating in Canada, the United States, United Kingdom, Hong Kong, China, India, the Philippines and Indonesia.
Patience is a virtue on people who want to gain financial independence. If you are thinking of ways to keep you money whilst letting it grow then investment goes a long way. Especially nowadays when inflation affects the take home pay . I used to think as well that a savings account can cover some of my future endeavors but with the price hike and depreciation of the currency I am willing to take risk. As time is up the essence in letting your investment grow. So If you have retirement plans and future stability goals then investment is a risk worth taking.

As the pageant fever continues to rise in the Philippines, only one television network gives everyone access to the preliminary show of the universe’s most beautiful competition.
Kapatid network, TV5, invites everyone to catch its exclusive airing of the swimsuit and long gown rounds of the 65 th Miss Universe competition. Happening at the SM Moa Arena, the preliminary swimsuit competition will air on January 28, 9:30PM, and the long gown competition on January 29, 8:45PM. A must-watch for all pageant fans, the performances of the candidates during the two events will greatly impact their standing in the competition.
“The preliminaries are very important because these are the only part where the girls will have the chance to shine as a big group for the last time. By January 30, only the top 15 girls will really get their spotlight on stage for the final swimsuit competition, and 10 for the evening gown,” explains world renowned pageant enthusiast, Norman Tinio.
“The preliminaries are very much-awaited every year as they represent the make or break part of the competition. These events give everyone a better idea of who really deserves the crown.”
“You can basically determine who will enter the top 15 and top 10 from the preliminaries,” adds Aces & Queens founder Jonas Gaffud. “It’s in this stage where judges are able to clearly see if you are smart, beautiful, and if you have the ability to own the stage.
That’s why a candidate must really have what I call ‘power’. I tell that to everyone I train—they should have that power to make the stage their own.” Dubbed “beauty queen maker”, Gaffud has been training the Philippines’ representatives in international beauty competitions, including Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach and Miss International 2016 Kylie Verzosa.
Pageant enthusiast and multi award-winning director Joey Reyes also shares, “The preliminaries are so much harder than the semi-finals, because when you become a semi-finalist, you enter a stage in the competition where you are competing against 14 other women only. But in the preliminaries, there are 85 of you. This is the part of the competition where beauty alone won’t carry you through.”
In partnership with the Miss Universe Organization and official Philippine broadcast partner of Miss Universe 2016 Solar Entertainment, TV5is the only television network that will cover the preliminaries of the 65 th Miss Universe competition. In a statement, its President and CEO, Vincent “Chot” Reyes, said that the station really pushed to gain rights to air the events as part of its commitment to provide world-class entertainment to Filipinos.
“Filipinos can look forward to watching their favorite contestants compete even before the grand finale, which is something only TV5 can offer. We aim to bring the pageant to life by bringing it closer to the hearts and enthusiasm of every Filipino.”explains TV5 President and CEO, Vincent “Chot” Reyes,
In addition to the preliminaries, TV5 will also air a live national telecast of the 65 th Miss Universe Competition’s Coronation Night on January 30.

GoodAh is well-known for being an all native Filipino food chain when it opened in the 80’s and not only for coining the “si” meals that we loved today but was also the first fast food company to operate an “Open 25 hours” and “7 days a week” food service operations. GoodAh welcomes 2017 with a new branch in Baclaran and an introduction of a new revamped version of one of the most coveted Filipino dish last January 16, 2017. They could not have picked a more greater location as Baclaran is in the heart of the most busy and well visited City in the Metro especially on Wednesday’s when Baclaran church is jam-packed with devotees.
With already 7 stores “Open 25 Hours” in Metro Manila, GoodAh!!! starts this new year with another branch to open. GoodAh!!!’s newest branch will be ready to serve people in Baclaran and quell cravings for their favorite Filipino dishes all day, every day. The Baclaran launch will coincide with another new and exciting dish that many Filipinos love. The popular all-Filipino food chain will be offering their own Krispy take on a favorite Filipino classic dish, Kare-Kare!
GoodAh!!!’s Krispy Kare-Kare or “KKK” uses ground peanuts to give that traditionally rich and earthy flavor to its kare-kare sauce. A large bowl is filled with cooked string beans, talong, pechay, and of course, puso ng saging because it wouldn’t be much of a kare-kare without it. A good amount of soft and juicy beef flank joins the dish. Sautéed shrimp paste gives kare-kare a different dimension to its play on flavors, which is very much like how this Filipino dish became a classic that everyone loves.
But what GoodAh!!! adds to the table is what gives it the “K” in the KKK. The usually gamey ox tripe or what Filipinos usually “tuwalya” is tough to eat if not cooked properly— usually by slowly cooking it in a pot or by cooking it in a pressure cooker. What GoodAh!!! did was to fry the ox tripe to give it a crispy texture, which is a complementing contrast, especially to the soft flanks and rich sauce of kare-kare. It’s a real crispy twist on the classic dish! GoodAh!!!’s Krispy Kare-Kare is available for just Php 299 a la carte or everyone can have it in a set meal for just Php 339.
This exciting new dish is the centerpiece offering for GoodAh’s newest branch in Baclaran, Pasay City opening this January. The launch of the newest branch will have special guests along with GoodAh!!!’s top management heads to enjoy GoodAh!!!’s 8th branch to date. Included in their lineup of guests is GoodAh!!!’s brand ambassador and celebrity talk show host, Mr. Boy Abunda.
GoodAh!!! continues to push culinary boundaries with this new and exciting twist on kare-kare, much like their recent, wildly popular food offerings: Crispy Pata and Bulalugaw. And GoodAh!!! has been doing this for more than 30 years, as seen in their first coined acronym dishes like Tapsilog, Tosi, Longsi, and many others that has become a ubiquitous part of popular Filipino meals today— and each one is “Pagkaing Good for Every-All”.
