OMG! OFW’s Money is Gone: The First Ever Personal Finance Book is Now Available for OFW
According to a 2011 study by Social Enterprise Development Partnerships Inc., one out of 10 Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) is financially broke, while 80 percent of OFWs return to the Philippines with no savings at all. This alarming situation causes financial distress due to the lack of proper financial education for many OFWs. Throughout this book, I will explain why personal finance is a timely topic not just for OFWs, but for every Filipino household. Some important topics addressed include:

“Insightful and informative — a must read for every OFW who doesn’t want to be an OFW forever.”
Karl Kaufman
Editor, GMA News Online Pinoy Abroad
“Very informative, and brilliantly written. Prof. Jun Amparo’s book is an entrepreneur’s handbook where he covered the twin action of savings and investment. To realize the greatest value of an OFW’s hard-earned money, he must save and engage in an entrepreneurial activity. Congratulations Jun!”
Dr. Robert F. Galindez

“JUN writes from his heart. This is an important element in this book. Most personal finance books are for general audiences, this one is written for the millions of Overseas Filipino Heroes. I entreat you to journey with Jun in learning and unlearning traits and habits in regard to making your purpose as an OFW a fruitful one. This journey will also make you a responsible steward of God’s blessings for more to come.”
Dr. Alvin Ang

“This book is exceptional. It is everything every OFW needs to change their attitude and management toward their hard-earned money. It’s practical, doable and it teaches the principles to achieve financial success despite several odds. Definitely a must-have.”
