Overall, the seminar was nice and I’ve met a lot of bloggers. I was also surprised that Sonnie Santos of Santos [dot] PH was there – I consider Mr. Santos one of my mentor in blogging.

There were a lot of freebies: GBX T-shirts, food & drinks, back issues of Money Sense magazine, plus GBX gift check for raffle – Too bad I didn’t get it. *sob*

Randell delivered the talk very fun and casual, but very insightful. I could say that my favorite part of his talk was about 3 ways to get rich:

1. Inherit It.
2. Marry It.
3. Spend less than what you earn and invest the difference.

Though you may find these ways kind of humorous, this is actually keys to financial freedom.

K.I.S.S. – Keep It Simple, Stupid. A lot of us spend our entire life looking for the secret ingredient or perhaps that magic spell for financial freedom. Little do we know that the secret ingredient is actually “OURSELVES” and the magic spell is actually a little basic mathematical equation:

(Income) – (Expenses) = (Profit/Loss)

e.g.

200 – 100 = 100

100 – 200 = (100)

Just keep it simple, don’t complicate your life.

I really enjoyed and learned a lot from the seminar today. I’m looking forward for more of their bloggers’ event.

I was just saddened that Zorlone and Ceblogger were not able to come due to some trouble. I hope to see you guys next time.

**UPDATE: There will be another blogger event on July 11, again in Greenhills. Organized by Mr. Sonnie.
