Another academic year has come and gone, and now it’s time to begin a new one. This will continue to be the case for the Society of Financial Management Students (SFMS) as members strive to improve their knowledge and abilities.

With so much delight, knowledge, and inspiration, the distinguished organization just wrapped up its December webinar entitled “Financial Freedom: A Long-Term Planning and Sustenance (ALPAS).” Kareena Sulit and Mara Angeli Cadiz, two financial advisors, imparted their expertise, financial guidance, and insider tips and tricks to the audience in the hopes that their messages would help them become financially independent.

Another webinar, Financial Planning: Strategies for Creating and Sustaining Wealth, was also held at Zoom in November. Organizers hope that by holding this conference, they can raise awareness of the need for financial literacy among the general public, as well as inspire an interest in financial matters among today’s generation.

“Breakthrough to Excellence” was the theme of SFMS’s online event “Callitan and Online Kumustahan Volume 2” in October, co-presented with the Dr. Niels Mulder Scholarship Foundation Inc.-Student Organization. Meeting and interacting with panelists such as Marlou Husana, a teacher; Joveth Racsag, a teacher and an anchor; Christian John Formaran, a college dean; and Marlon Joseph Serrano, a businessman, was an excellent opportunity to learn about and confront obstacles to achieving excellence.

The Financialistas, as what they call their members, also supervised and attended an organization-based event named “Kwentong Kwarantin” with Professor Marko Illustrisimo, CPA, as their guest speaker. This October event focused on Financialistas’ quarantine stories.

Where do wishes go when candles die

Year after year, when the candles burn bright, they carry the same question.“What would you wish for?”I smile, but my lips stay sealed. The words gather in my chest, pressing softly against my ribs, while the smoke curls upward as if it knows where to go better than I...
