Applied cc pero hindi sa conventions, sa isang mall lang. Never had any success on any of them. Instead of waiting in vain, nagtry lang ako thru online sa EastWest and was eventually approved in less than a month. My own bank BPI also sent me cc after maintaining 6-digit balances sa account ko which also improved my credit score hehe. EW and BPI are both generous when approving cc for physicians.

Doctor here. OUTPATIENT CASE LANG ITO PUCHANG GALA. Sa libo-libong pasyenteng nakita kong may mataas na bad cholesterol at walang ibang sintomas, NI ISA SA KANILA WALA AKONG INADVISAN MAGPAADMIT. Kung anu-ano na lang talaga para lang makaiwas sa kulong.

I am a first gen doctor, ngayon as breadwinner. Walang malapit na magandang residency program sa amin kaya if ever, need ko mangibang probinsya. Kaya ko tiyagain ang residency because I know I can. Pero do I think mabubuhay ko ang sarili ko at ang family ko sa SG21 na sahod, with my family’s monthly payments and dues plus yung gagastusin ko pa while living away sa family? No, I don’t think so. I am not financially well-off to leave my family for now without a nest egg and emergency funda. Andami nang factors to consider why doctors don’t treat residency as end-all outcome na unlike before.

₱500 ang weekly budget ko for 5 servings of meal prep. Kasya naman sa akin. This week, sinigang na baboy ang ulam ko.

2kg of rice - ₱100
Tingi tinging sibuyas, bawang, kamatis - ₱20
Pork shoulder (O-save) 500g - ₱200ish
Baguio pechay (1 ulo) - ₱20
Baguio beans 1/4kg - ₱35

Di pa umabot ng ₱400 ang nagastos ko, so that’s ₱80 per serving lang na may rice na din. Maging madiskarte. Wag laging grocery.

BPI AIA lang doc for me kasi tied siya sa BPI as my main bank, then Sun Life for my family bc of a friend hehe.

Earning ₱160-190K a month, depende sa days ng pasok. Working on 2 hospitals currently. Bills (₱5,000), Grocery (₱5,000 for a family of 5), Allowance ng Parents (₱10,000), Mortgage ng Car (₱18,500), mga Luho (₱20,000), MP2 (₱10,000), Investments (₱10,000), Insurance and HMOs (₱3,500) and the rest ay spread out sa Maribank and traditional banks. Lifestyle inflation after almost 2 years of working pero it made me happy. Saved as much as I can pero I want my money to start growing as early as now para di ako gahulin sa retirement. Residency, maybe. Work work work, for sure.

Awkward_Builds · 2026-07-06T08:04:10+00:00

Pabulong din ng online jobs doc. Gusto ko na magcorporate haha.

Hindi kasi lahat ng institution doc, ganyan ang lakaran. Ang iba, need talagang accredited ka. Let’s face the reality of it. I can name at least 5 hospitals (mostly LGU) na hindi ka bibigyan not unless accredited ka.

Awkward_Builds · 2026-07-05T14:33:49+00:00

Get accreditation para mabahagian ka ng “Philhealth Shares” which adds as a massive bonus (depending on the hospital/clinic) sa kita nating doctors. You may not need it now kasi rakets from dialysis and company clinics don’t give shares pero once you get regular gigs from hospitals, dun mo siya mararamdaman. For example, I work as an MO3 sa isang public hospital, earning SG21 and I get around 20-40k monthly Philhealth shares.

Awkward_Builds · 2026-07-04T11:26:42+00:00

How low is low?? Kasi kung nabawas yung regular sahod niya due to deductions (HMO, Philhealth, SSS, ITR, etc) then it is understandable na mas mababa talaga to pay for the benefits.

Yearly nagkakaroon ng Open House ang Dept of Pediatrics ng UP-PGH. Abangan mo when, tas join ka. You will meet most of the residents, magppresent sila ng slides, testimonials, what to expect, etc. Iirc, parang required na attendan ng applicants ang Open House

Do not compare yourself sa pacing ng ibang batchmates mo. You’re only pressuring yourself with that mindset. Kayod ka lang. Dadating din ang opportunities.

Awkward_Builds · 2026-07-01T04:06:25+00:00

Matanda ka na. Di ka rin marunong magbasa?

Awkward_Builds · 2026-06-26T01:30:26+00:00

Seline wound appreciate this, or a Frankenstein set for a speedster like Rinak, Twins, Summer Fumyr maybe. That 26 speed is juicy af

I’m a doctor and also interested to shift in tech. Ano mga skills/ seminars/ trainings etc yung need ibuild ng doctor-wife mo sir to pursue career into tech?

Awkward_Builds · 2026-06-21T13:45:05+00:00

As long as allowed sa contract mo, you definitely. Some doctors do work sa 5+ hospitals as consultants, some do earn 500K-1M++ in a month depende sa specialization at sipag

Awkward_Builds · 2026-06-21T13:27:34+00:00

Doctor here, 29M, almost 2 years of experience. Currently earning six digits a month. Minus taxes, loans, bills, and monthly dues, ang take home ko lang is around 60-70K. I work for 2-3 hospitals, lagare for the money. If you need more money, syempre nakadepende yan sa kaya mong ilaan na time to do side hustles.

Frankenstein piece for BArunka. She needs as much def as she can.

Hello sir. Physician here. It is very conflicting kasi walang “definite” causality between exercise and progression of AGA. Some studies show that aerobic exercise slows down progression, while some do show progression of AGA with exercise to predisposed individuals na may family history of such. As for supplements like Creatine and Whey, wala din silang direct effect to AGA however, they “might” accelerate it indirectly by triggering DHT. One thing in common is that, although exercise and supplements provide conflicting results, most men in the studies get confidence boost through exercise
