Hi all,

30M, married, 2 kids. Soooo… if you check my previous posts, nagiisip akong lumipat to AU. However, meron din akong golden handcuffs. Decently paid director level position. Kainis. Got my PR through studying in AU. Easier yun dati eh.

Anyway, so ngayon I do have a decently sized portfolio din. (Check previous post din on crypto exposure, stocks, and RE) now that I think the economy looks pretty bad, sold most of my stocks and even selling my properties. Tapos hindi na rin ako bullish sa PH market, wondering if mas ok ba for me to invest in AU ETFs or US ETFs?

I plan to move to AU if things go even worse in PH. Near na rin ako sa fire number ko in AUD. But still going to work. Don’t plan to retire.

I am 30M. So for the past year, I’ve been dealing with severe health anxiety. Lots of things happening in my life. New role sa trabaho, growing family, and so on.

I have 2 beautiful kids and an even more beautiful wife who is carrying our 3rd baby. And I worry about my health more than ever. Kasi idk what will happen to them if something happens to me. To the point na I had panic attacks. Sadly, na trigger siya from a running incident where I ran without fuel and I nearly fainted. Isipin mo ang ironic. Ang effort ko pa para maging healthy. Eh naging health anxiety pa.

Anyway, today I went to church. And I decided not to let it bother me. Kasi isipin mo, pati si Jesus namatay. Paano ba kaya tayo? Lahat naman tayo mamatay. It is just a matter of when. Isipin mo may mga tao elite runners or fitness junkie, magkakasakit bigla nalang mamatay na ang bata pa. Meron iba walang check up, iinom ng coke, smoking, and so on, live until 90. So kahit anong gawin natin, basta oras na, oras na talaga.

I prayed hard to the Lord about my struggles. Sabi ko I am having so much difficulty dealing with this. Pero please give me the strength and humility to deal with it and hope to get over it. Feeling ko I need to be humbled kasi no matter what I will do, sa dulo, mamatay pa rin ako. I can only try my best to live for as long as I can. For my kids and family.

So today, I decided to live life.
