Time & Money 2 days ago

We carved out a whole morning last week to review our budget. Looks like we need to cut out about 20% of our overhead and focus on more profitable ventures. With exclusive rights to a new program, the future looks bright. We are one step closer to Italy!

Nguyen Thi Dinh - July 2008 2 days ago

Mrs. Nguyen Thi Dinh, 32 years old, had a shop for repairing motorbikes. Yet, at that time, she did not have enough funding. As a result, her business did not go very well. In 2002, she joined the TYM Fund. At first, she borrowed 40 USD to invest in her repairing shop. After 8 years of membership, she now owns a large motorbike-repairing shop with lots of customers. Her husband is very experienced and dedicated to working at the shop. She also has to pay 100 USD/month for 2 workers to help with the shop. Her 2 children are going to school. This time, she wants to borrow 1025 USD to buy motorbike accessories. Her average income is 425 USD/month.

Balance 2 days ago

I am struggling with the balance between living up to my potential and sustaining a simple lifestyle. On the one hand I believe that, “to whom much is given, much is required.” On the other, I believe in a healthy, low(er)-stress lifestyle. I guess the key is to set realistic goals, do the best I can to reach them, and leave time to enjoy the journey.
