Money Summit and Wealth Expo 2014


Sorry for being MIA again in this blog. I don't want to make any excuses. :) Practicing "NO EXCUSES Management". ;)

Anyway, this is my second time attending the Money Summit. I attended last 2010. Review of the summit for that year can be found here.

I was blessed enough to be able to attend the Money Summit and Wealth Expo 2014 for FREE. It was indeed a BIG Blessing. I was thinking of attending the summit months before but never take any action. I just keep on asking people if they will attend the summit. Unluckily, friends I wanna go with was not going and it made me think of attending as well. Call it lame excuse and procrastination. But maybe nothing just happen. OR should I call it "LAW of ATTRACTION".

Few days before the summit, a friend of mine who is also a speaker in the summit ask me if I wan't to attend the summit because she has 1 more available slot for her delegates. And who am I to say no to such a good offer. It was an answered prayer.

Prior to the event, I can't make up my mind if I want to attend stock market and real estate investing because I am doing both. I want to attend both but I can't because they are happening at the same time.I need to select the classes I would attend. But on the day of the event, I got surprised when the ID Badge given to us as delegates were VIP.  It was a JACKPOT because paying for such option would cost me Php20,000. Dilemna solved. And so, I attended the Stock Market Investing classes in the Morning and Real Estate Classes in the Afternoon. And I would say, I learned a lot. It empowered and inspired me again. It puts me back on track from my hibernation.


Let me share with you some of the key points I learned from the two day seminar.
