Giabelle This is a good question. My instinct would tell me to give but my coscience tells me not to because I am just patronizing something that's not right. It has been a long debate whether to give or not to give, honestly ...I would love to help but not in this...

Giabelle There must be discipline first and the right frame of mind. If you are not serious about saving then you will never get to save. Setting aside a fixed portion of your income will do the trick, have aseparate bank account for savings only with high yield...

What is family to you?

Casey Heinzism @dnatureofdtrain (5273) • Janesville, Wisconsin 28 May 07

Giabelle I know someone who has acrophobia, fear of heights. It seems that this fear was acquired from his parents who also has thesame phobia. I dislike worms or any crawling insects, that's why AXN's reality show "the fear factor" doesn't appeal to me at all.

Giabelle I don't agree that real happiness cannot be defined because HAPPINESS is a simple word with so much meaning. It is subjective that almost everyone can say something about it. I guess it's more proper to say that happiness has many definitions. For me,...

if ever you're rich... will you avoid and ignore poor people?

ronreyes @ronreyes (4724) • Philippines 19 May 07

Most rich people don't want to mingle with poor people because they thought poor people are dirty, they don't have manners, and most importantly, they don't have money! If ever you're rich... will you do the same? Will you...

Giabelle Chicharon or pork crackling is one yummy treat. Not advisable though to over indulge yourself because it is not at all healthy. Eating in moderation is the key in enjoying this delicacy of course with vinegar and garlic dip. Happy eating everyone:)
