00:00 This #IponGoals is unique to a family in Cavite.
00:06 Their fences and fences are being hammered into their doors.
00:13 Knock, knock!
00:14 Who's there?
00:16 Fence?
00:17 Fence who?
00:18 A very, very thick fence.
00:26 Where did these crazy people come from?
00:30 On September 12, when the couple noticed that it was hard to open their door.
00:38 It's like the fly hood of the door is opening.
00:41 That's why Jomar closed it.
00:44 And that's when the fence and the 20 pesos came into being.
00:54 But it's not a miracle, because they saved it for almost 5 months.
01:00 Before we moved to that room, it didn't have a door yet.
01:04 So we decided to make it a door.
01:07 My son's fence falls here, in this hole I made.
01:11 When this bottom part is full, I can save it here, and make a hole here again.
01:15 Even though their son is a cheater, he's saving money in the door as well.
01:21 My son saw that I was falling there, and he wanted it as well.
01:25 Sometimes, when I spread it on the bed, he'll get it and put it there.
01:30 The idea of saving money in a special container that Jomar got from his father.
01:36 When we needed money, my father took me to our jeep.
01:41 I thought, what are we going to do?
01:43 He just helped us to get the money from the tube of our jeep.
01:48 Cherry is a housewife.
01:50 Jomar is a truck driver.
01:52 And they saved money for their son's toy car that is almost his birthday.
01:59 When we go to the mall, he'll see a car.
02:03 He likes to put coins in the car.
02:07 So we planned to buy him a remote control car.
02:11 They still haven't got their savings.
02:17 But they're giving their door.
02:20 We're not counting yet.
02:22 I'm planning to do it for December.
02:24 It's for Ece's birthday.
02:26 We're planning to add it.
02:28 We're moving it, so we're moving it here.
02:31 Junrail and Cherry saved money in their tub.
02:40 Since November last year, Junrail got around 10 pesos per barrel from his jeep.
02:48 He put it next to a metal container.
02:51 But because he's afraid of stealing their savings,
02:55 they hid the metal container in the tub.
02:58 Then, they covered it with cement.
03:01 I suddenly thought, why don't we just put it under the tub, Mrs.
03:04 because if there's a wolf in our house, they won't know that I put a metal container there.
03:09 But because the new issue of barriers of the Central Bank of the Philippines came out,
03:15 because they're afraid that their savings won't be replaced,
03:19 they covered it with cement.
03:23 And when they counted their savings, it reached almost 10,000 pesos.
03:31 We were surprised that it reached that much.
03:34 We bought a jockey, amplifier, and speakers because my kids like to sing.
03:39 Nowadays, it's important to save money because they say,
03:43 if there's a problem, there's a solution.
03:45 But what's important is that no matter what way of saving money,
03:48 what's important is that our discipline in spending is developing.
03:52 This is the real #IponGoals.
03:56 Because of the saving of barriers, Angelito finally bought his dream car.
04:05 Angelito is a hard worker. He used to be a pauper.
04:08 I know how to make a living. I sell at the market, I work as a gardener, construction, I help those who need help.
04:15 He got married to Aida when he was 22 years old.
04:19 It's very simple. Two cans of fish and vegetables. We're the only ones here.
04:23 Their first home was a pigsty.
04:28 We understand each other. She knows our life.
04:32 But I didn't allow myself to do that. We're just that close.
04:35 Angelito insisted.
04:37 I didn't do it because I didn't study.
04:40 You'll tell yourself that you didn't study. I didn't let anyone beat me.
04:43 When he saved money, he started buying and selling old things.
04:49 All the things I sell here are just surplus.
04:52 The things we get from demolition, wood, iron, and steel.
04:55 Until the old pigsty that still lives in the pig pen.
05:02 He has his own house and land.
05:06 They also have a mill and drilling and surplus shop.
05:12 I just don't want to experience it. I experienced it. It's really hard.
05:15 We're really poor.
05:17 But Angelito's dream is to buy a car that is worth almost 900,000 pesos.
05:25 He bought it within 6 months by saving a lot.
05:32 Even though Angelito has a business, he still values saving.
05:38 Not all the time, there's work.
05:41 When the time comes that you don't have a job, you have some money.
05:46 Until this March, he started saving for his dream car.
05:52 I thought it's hard to buy it right away because it's a big value.
05:55 The big ones all went to the small ones.
05:58 His game plan is to save quickly, he used transparent money.
06:04 I separated the coins and the paper.
06:07 When you see that it's still a little, you'll be challenged to add more.
06:11 You add more, you drop more.
06:13 What is the day that I didn't drop? I pay for it.
06:16 When I estimate that it's enough.
06:21 And after 6 months, he saved 152,045 pesos.
06:30 It's a big value, even though it's still not enough for his dream car worth 900,000 pesos.
06:38 It's just an addition to his previous savings.
06:43 Even though I didn't save much, I bought it because it's my filling.
06:50 I don't want to add what I saved.
06:52 But number one, you have to discipline yourself.
06:56 Because you can't do it now, and tomorrow it's not possible.
06:59 If you say that you will do it, you really will do it.
07:02 There are different ways of saving.
07:08 Each has its own style.
07:10 What's important is that there are few barriers and those who can be pushed have a big direction.
07:19 Thank you so much, Kapuso.
