A few more days before our vacation ends and I still have a few more things to do. I’ve got a lot of banking errands to do tommorow as well as health insurance quotes to review. I’m looking into some small investment options we could consider. At this point we want to build a stable nest egg that we intend to use when hubby and I are old and also I want to have a ready fund for my daughter when she reaches college level. And we intend to start early on.
A thing that concerns me most is that hubby is working in Phnom Penh Cambodia and there is still not much in terms of retirement benefits as well as health insurance. Knowing this limitation, we’d like to be ready for any eventuality. So though we are both working in Cambodia, my Philippine Social Security membership is still active and I’ll continue making my contributions. At least this way, I would have the security of having a pension when I reach the age of 60 as well as a whole lot of other benefits. It’s not much but its better than none.
Were also exploring other savings and investment options so while we could still work we could set aside funds when the time comes that we are both old and sickly already. I’m also hoping for continous improvement in Cambodia’s retirement and insurance benefits so at least my husband’s life work would have at least some returns.
