My Personal Finance Story

Hey, my name is Felix (pseudonym), I am in my mid-thirties and this is my personal finance story:

I was born into a humble family, where both parents were Civil servants.  Our family finances was up and down, but we never lacked basic needs like food, clothing and shelter at any point, and all the six children went to good school and at no time were we sent out of school for school fees, it was paid as at when due, how my parents pulled that off I do not know considering their salaries as at then.

Introducing a New section-' My Personal Finance Story'

My Personal Finance Story is a new section we would like to introduce for our reading/learning. 

It will be real life personal finance stories of people, the experiences, they have gathered over the years, we want to learn from people around us and see the practicality of personal finance and how we can learn from their mistakes, by avoiding the pitfalls and also leverage on their success story and make it ours.

We will be using pseudo names, locations etc. so the identity of the person telling his story is not compromised in any way. We will also use the medium to seek for financial advice as the case maybe (Note we will not post any request for funds).

You are free to send me your personal finance story at babat09@gmail.com, follow me on twitter @pistis03.

Lets do this together, lets learn from each other.
