Greek Financial Crisis

Saturday, June 5th, 2010

Wow! Just yesterday, a small fallback for the price of gold has been observed. This might probably be due to the Greek finances causing the price of gold to decline. This means that even if gold are normally taken to as a secured investment, many investors are risking their assets less due to the Greek financial crisis. I remember people who were telling me to buy gold coins in the past and they really told me gold is such a great investment.

Naturally, gold and the dollar relationship is adverse. This means that when dollar increases, gold declines. However, this Greek debt situation is creating a huge impact and is worsening by the day. Many investors are hesitating to risk because of this matter. If you don’t know yet, Greece had a really huge amount of money they owe and it seems like they would not be able to pay their financial accountability. This is the primary reason why the dollars has been increasing the past few days and a decline in the euro can be observed. Though on the brighter side of things, unlike oil and metals like palladium, gold still holds up well.

Traditionally, it is proven that gold’s value is preserved even when the national currency is declining. Normally, your money is secured in gold due to the fact that it is something physical and tangible but you can not easily dispose it. However, like the previous years, gold is expected to go back in the stocks game.

Manny Villar in Kandidato Interview

Saturday, May 8th, 2010

This is the April 28 episode of Kandidato, television’s toughest job interview, Nacionalista Party presidential bet Senator Manny Villar gets grilled by Arnold Clavio, Howie Severino, and Malou Mangahas on the topics surrounding his candidacy.

These are my reactions regarding the Manny Villar Kandidato Job Interview.

On Personality

What I like with Villar is his consistency. His answer on which Philippine hero does he idolize is Andres Bonifacio, who like him, came from the poor, worked hard and is very brave. He has also shown me how great of a father and a family man he is – he brought his kids well, he said his happiest times are being with his family and children especially when they are all together celebrating New Year and Christmas.
