INVESTING MILLENNIALS (start with financial literacy)
She says mom Sharon Cuneta told her to save her money and invest wisely.
KC Concepcion's Palawan Property Was One of Her First Investments... "DREAM BIG! BE KIND! You can ACHIEVE it!"
The 34-year-old actress/jewelry designer has been frequenting San Vicente, Palawan not only to unwind from her stressful city life, but also to visit her property on the island.
She wrote, "Dear Mom and Grandparents, thank you for teaching me to 'Save & Invest' at such a young age.
"Like every working millennial or woman in their 30s, I am continuing to learn how to take care of, grow, and move around personal finances.
"My grandma, stepdad, and mom were so strict about saving up to buy property FIRST, before getting that bag... Yes, pressure and standards were high but I am glad they were!
"Although deep inside as a girl of course I wanted the BAG, I learned about 'delayed gratification' in order to afford the BEACH. Lol. . What's YOUR dream?
"Keep busy, and work smart, so you too can make your dreams come true. On your own terms. And quietly, without stepping on anyone's toes.
The actress-entrepreneur could not pinpoint the year she bought the property, but said she got it during her early years in the showbiz industry.
She said, "Right now, mahal ko po talaga ang Palawan, and isa po sa mga naging first purchases ko nung medyo tuluy-tuloy po yung mga commercials, tuloy-tuloy yung mga teleserye kaysa po sa mamahaling sapatos, e, yun pong ganung klaseng property.
"Kasi yun din po yung turo sa akin ng mom ko din."
KC clarified that she did not buy a whole island, but a property near the beach.
At the moment, she has yet to decide if she will build a rest house.
In the meantime, the actress said she will continuously promote the beautiful island.
KC told the press, "Maipagmamalaki nating mga Pinoy yung ganyan... Siyempre, yung [Department of Tourism], di ba sobrang umaarangkada din.
"Si Secretary Berns [Berna Romulo] has been doing such a good job. And gusto ko lang din suportahan yung ganun, parang let's be proud of our own.
