💲Peso Smart PH is a channel that aims to educate Filipinos on how to handle their money better, invest in the stock market, take advantage of compound interest and discuss all things personal finance. I'm an avid fan of Warren Buffet, Mark Cuban, Gary Vaynerchuk, Robert Kiyosaki, Og Mandino and Tony Robbins. I want to share this journey with you to broaden my understanding and knowledge in the world of investing, money and wealth.
