If you need to do some paperwork like opening bank accounts, opening investment accounts or something else, you will most likely need a valid government ID. There’s a lot of valid IDs you can use like your driver’s license, passport, voter’s ID, postal ID, and a few others.

One of the most important IDs you can use, however, is the Social Security System (SSS) Unified Multi-Purpose Identification (UMID) or SSS UMID. I got my SSS number long before 2010 when this ID was first implemented so I only recently applied for mine last December 2018. If you’re in a similar situation, then this guide is for you.

You’ll first need to register for an SSS number for this, but once you’ve already done that getting your UMID should be easy. Here’s how to get an SSS UMID Card.

The temptation to spend is everywhere. There are sales and discounts, luxury goods, and cool stuff we don’t actually need. There’s a nice new shirt or piece of clothing on the store window. There’s that little snack bar that makes your favorite food. There’s that nice set of headphones, earrings, or accessory that you want… and you do have money for all of them. It can’t hurt to buy a few, right?

A half-dozen shopping trips later, you realize that your wallet is almost empty and you barely have enough in your bank’s savings account to survive until the next payday.

The temptation to spend is everywhere and there’s always something we want to buy. We can, indeed, set a budget, but most likely we’ll overspend and break it. What should we do?

In Dan Ariely’s book, Dollars and Sense, there’s a strategy an ancient Greek hero used to avoid danger, and we can use that to save money and stop overspending. Dan called it “Ulysses contracts”, and it’s basically any strategy we use to avoid future temptation.
