You’re earning well… but when you look at your accounts, you still catch yourself asking: “I honestly don’t know where my money goes.”

In Episode 3 of our High Income, Low Structure series, we go a level deeper and talk about seven small but costly money leaks that quietly drain wealth for high-income Filipinos. Individually, they’re easy to shrug off. Together, over 5–10 years, they can cost you millions in lost opportunities.

In this episode, we cover 7 money leaks:
Untracked “nice to have” spending – food delivery, coffee, subscriptions, “add to cart” moments
Unsystematic family support – UBI (unexpected but inevitable) expenses with no ceiling
Predictable-but-unplanned big expenses – “Seasonal Bigs” that pretend to be emergencies
Uncommitted surplus and idle cash – savings that drift instead of having a clear job
Overlapping or misaligned financial products – policies and investments you keep paying for but can’t explain
Investing without a plan – random bets, no rhythm, and FOMO-driven decisions
Overly illiquid portfolios – “asset-rich, cash-poor” setups that feel tight in real life

By the end of this video, you’ll be able to:
Identify which of these seven leaks are actually present in your own setup, and
Put a rough number on how much each one might be costing you every year.

Key takeaways from this episode:
Why “small” areas of misbehavior (coffee, delivery, subs) can add up to tuition-level amounts
How to turn family support and UBI expenses into a sustainable, systematized part of your plan
How sinking funds and Seasonal Bigs buckets stop fake emergencies from derailing you
Why idle cash and uncommitted surplus are their own kind of leak in an inflationary world
How a simple product audit can uncover overlapping policies and high-fee investments
Why your investing rhythm and system often matter more than finding the “perfect” product
How the “Age + 10” liquidity guideline can help you check if you’re too asset-heavy and cash-light
