Today one of my friend with her family went to an orphanage and her brother who is working in a company sponsored for a lunch for all the children in the orphanage. It sounded really nice. Even I want to help them out. But I am...

gwenb143 I forgot, when you write to these companies, it is oftentimes effective to attach a few pictures --of the orphanage or the orphans themselves so these companies could see their condition or share a story of one of the orphans in your letter. Just a thought to...

gwenb143 Like the suggestions offered here, there a lot of brokerages online. You can simply get to their websites and open your Roth IRA account yourself. You can try going to www.sharebuilder.com. I have been using them for 4 years (for IRAs and investing in...

HEllo friends! I need your help and opinion about these 2 cars. I can't make up my mind on which of these two im going to buy. What do you think are the pros and cons of each?

gwenb143 Here in the US, they are generally in the same price range. I don't know why it is more expensive back in Manila -- maybe there are changes in the cars specs -- different car parts to suit climate, traffic conditions, more expensive accessories, etc?? Not a...

gwenb143 What I shared earlier is an alternative way to help these kids. While you say that the children expect 'more' from you, do you necessarily think it should be monetary? Like I said, sometimes these orphans are happy that you visit them, or pick them up and...

gwenb143 I'm sure you will. Just be confident and cool when you do it. You know, casual. Girls like confidence in a guy. I'm sure you'll find that out. =)

gwenb143 Actually it doesn't matter how, as long as he asks me out (especiall if I like him)! =) I hate it when men try to 'feel' you out to see if you like them before they say anything. Just ask!

gwenb143 I'm a big Honda fan so you know what I'm going to say. =) In fairness, both Japanese cars are very reliable. It will just probably boil down to price and the vehicles' resale value. Hondas are more expensive in Manila but they have way better resale value (in...

gwenb143 I used to volunteer at a home for old people and also an orphanage for a few years, back when I lived in Manila. They are institutions started by Mother Teresa and her nuns. Lack of money should never hinder anyone from giving help -- you could volunteer a few...

gwenb143 Of course, we're all different and so, to each his own. I guess it is much harder to withdraw if the person is your neighbor, or your classmate, or somebody you work with. Just try to remember why you are not together anymore and just have a lot of respect for...

gwenb143 It's really very hard to get over someone. It could take months or years. The key is first allow yourself ample time to grieve and then helping yourself by doing concrete action. Noone is going to do it for you. I think the best way to get over someone is...
