We've actually set aside this money for EJ's college days instead of the usual educational plan around. Because I heard that MF has better returns and other educ plans companies had problems. So, we're not earning from the fund yet because it's a long term investment :) Josiets last blog post..<a href="http://www.mumsified.com/2008/07/eyeglasses-and-me.html" rel="nofollow">Eyeglasses and me</a> The MF that we’ve invested in is a 5-year term.

We're still on the saving stage since we just spent a lot for my delivery. I read about mutual funds and I'm interested to try it. How has it worked for you? Budgeting is still a challenge for me too but we're getting there. Last weekend, I consciously left out snacks and expensive toiletries from our grocery cart so our total decreased a little. :) Good for you!

I do hope your 2 year plan will work out too. Just focus on the positive, maybe the 2 years will go by sooner than you think. :D Sad to hear you and Rob will be apart.

But from what I read, a P10K is a start. We've just started "investing" and saving money. So far, we've put money in mutual funds (we chose long term investment) and started converting our savings account into time deposit. I know the interest is not that high but at least it is better than the savings account interest. And you cannot withdraw the money anytime you want. And of course in parallel to investments, we still follow a budget. Sometimes sablay pero most of the time naman, we spend within the imposed budget :) Josiets last blog post..<a href="http://www.mumsified.com/2008/07/penang-update.html" rel="nofollow">Penang update</a> Just like you,I used to think to be able to invest I need to have a lot of money.
