Pro Tips for Philippine Investing

โฐStart Early, Win Big

โ‚ฑ5K/month starting at age 25 = โ‚ฑ8-12M by age 60. Starting at 35? Only โ‚ฑ3-5M. Every 10 years delayed costs โ‚ฑ5-7M!

๐Ÿ“ŠPSEi Index Funds First

For beginners: Start with PSEi index funds (8-12% returns). Diversified across top 30 companies, low fees. Beat 80% of active traders.

๐Ÿ’ฐCost Averaging Beats Timing

Invest same amount monthly regardless of market. Buy more when prices drop, fewer when high. Beats trying to time the market.

๐ŸŽฏEmergency Fund Before Stocks

Build 6 months expenses (โ‚ฑ180-300K) in savings first. Stocks can drop 20-40% short-term - don't invest money you'll need soon.

๐ŸฆTax-Free PERA Advantage

PERA: up to โ‚ฑ100K/year tax-deductible. Save 25-32% on taxes immediately! Money grows tax-free until age 55.

๐Ÿ”„Rebalance Annually

Target: 60% stocks, 30% bonds, 10% cash. If stocks grew to 75%, sell some, buy bonds. Forces "sell high, buy low" discipline.
