Today i took a friend to see a doctor and i noted something interesting on the notice board. The 4 numbers that indicate the sate of your health. They are 1) Cholesterol; total should be less than 200, bad cholesterol should be less than 100 and good cholesterol should be above 60. 2) Blood pressure; normal range is 120-129 when the heart is pumping and 80-84 when the heart is resting or 120/80 to 129/84. 3)Fasting blood sugar; normal is less than 110, best to keep it below 90. 4) Body Mass Index; the ratio between your weight and height should be between 18.5 and 25.

This made me wonder whether we have 4 simple numbers that can be used to determine our financial health. This is my homework for the next 1 week. Please post a comment if you have an idea where i can get an answer.

 

Today is Memorial Day here in the US. It is a great day of celebration and honor. We remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice of giving up their lives for the sake of their country-folk. We are indeed blessed to live in the greatest nation in the world.

Amid the celebration, i found time to add 4 pages of Quick-Tips. See menu bar item number 6. These are one page money tips that are easy to read and remember. More importantly, they can be shared with children. Please help me raise a generation that knows how to deal with personal finances.

I wish you an enjoyable and memorable day!
