signed MARCO believes that financial literacy must be at the forefront of education and economic policies. Managing finances and making informed decisions about investments and business ventures, as widely recognized important life skills, must be acquired as soon as one recognizes his economic being.
Not surprisingly, financial literacy requires a background on financial principles including saving and building emergency funds, engaging in and managing debts, controlling personal finances, taking advantage of compound interests, and making investments as grounded on the increasing value of money and other assets over time.
signed MARCO | Lifestyle and Personal Finance is a Philippine-based online publisher and resource of lifestyle, personal finance, and other investment-related advice, insights, and guides. In a nutshell, we promote financial literacy among young Filipino millennials in the Philippines and around the world.
While we focus on personal finance, we offer a growing collection of articles in the following categories: Business and Investments, Health and Life Insurance, Income Opportunities, Insights and Lifestyle, General Personal Finance, Processing Documents, and Tools and Resources.
signed MARCO is an advertising-supported publisher that earns revenues primarily from featured placement of sponsored products, services, and ad links.
