This date and time, 15 September 2013 at 3:03pm, I'm logging this in so I can remember how I started this blog.

In order for me to make it unforgettable, I will tell you what I was doing few hours ago, the weather and how I started this blog.  I'll put it in details on what caused me to start this Make Future Income blog.  This I'll explain to you at the end of this post.

How's the Weather?
The clouds are covering the whole of Singapore.  In fact, it rained the whole morning so the air is cold right now.

But the rain stopped at 2:45pm, I can hear the birds singing and celebrating for it, but still clouds are present that might be the signal for another rain later on.

What I Was Doing Few Hours Ago
At 2:00pm, my flatmate, Edward, asked me for help.  He cannot remove the broken doorknob at our common toilet door.  The screw is difficult to remove.  I tried to do it with his screwdriver but I cannot remove it also.

I told him that the screwdriver is not the right fit.  So I took my car key and headed to the parking area to get some tools.  The rain was pouring and I got wet a bit.

It was the right screwdriver that removed the doorknob, so I was right.  Then I took my late lunch at around 2:45pm, washed the dishes and headed to my room.

Edward, his wife and son were there in their room, probably watching a movie.  My 3 flatmates are also busy with their activities, just in their own rooms.

Today is the boxing fight of Floyd Mayweather and Canelo Alvarez, where Mayweather won the fight.  My friend posted in his Facebook timeline that he don't like Mayweather.  Oh well!!!

Why I Started the Make Future Income Blog?
While I was browsing my hard drive, video files taken few years ago appeared to my view.  I opened each of the video and found my younger looking wife and my young son.

By the way, I'm an Overseas Filipino Worker in Singapore (OFW).  I've been working here for quite few years now.

Going back to the video, I can see how time flies.  My wife looked younger and sexier, although she is still sexy now, and my son was  a toddler.  The video reminds me of the old days when I was in Philippines with this two special person in my life.

This moment, I paused the video for a while as I realized that I'm missing few years of my wife and son's time while I'm here in Singapore.  We have now our second baby, 2 years old, and I thought that I will miss his toddler years if I stay longer in Singapore.

What Should I Do With My Life?
Today, I promise not to stay longer in Singapore.  My goal is to go back in the Philippines to be with my family or to be with them in Canada.  My target is that next year, 15 September 2014, I shouldn't be here working in Singapore.

Before I can reach my goal, I have to do something about it first.  Today, I have started the blog in making my future income in order to get out of being an Overseas Foreign Worker.  I can't take it anymore, which is leaving my family in Philippines while I'm here working in Singapore, and so can retire early as 50 years old.

I will post my experiences in ways to get a passive or future income here in my blog. 

Please follow me and let's share some ideas to make this possible.
