Sa Part 2 ng PEP Spotlight interview ni Pops Fernandez, inamin nito na matipid siyang tao pagdating sa sarili. Pero pagdating sa kanyang pamilya at mga mahal sa buhay, handa siyang gumastos.

Pero paminsan-minsan daw ay bumibili siya ng mamahaling bagay para sa sarili, lalo na pag talagang kailangan. Bihira raw ang bumili siya ng dahil sa luho lang.

Ikinuwento rin ng tinaguriang "Philippines' Concert Queen" ang isang punto sa kanyang career na nagtulak sa kanya para maging adventurous sa kanyang mga desisyon.

Panoorin ang kanyang paglalahad sa PEP Spotlight interview na ito.

00:00 Maybe I am less afraid now to decide on certain things, to try out new things.
00:07 It's okay to try and fail rather than never trying at all.
00:26 At what age did you suddenly realize that, "Oh, I can already afford this without looking at the price?"
00:35 I really can't... I really can save money.
00:44 I'll repeat that.
00:50 Maybe my childhood dream was Esprit.
00:56 Ever since I was fond of clothes, I was fond of wearing clothes.
01:02 So, Esprit.
01:04 I only had a small budget, Esprit.
01:07 Benetton, that was my favorite. I was happy with that.
01:11 Other than that, I didn't really want to buy anything.
01:15 Because for me, it's not that I was conscious about saving.
01:20 Maybe I was subconsciously saving, but I wasn't really saving myself.
01:24 I always say I'm "koripot". I keep saying it.
01:27 But I think the better term for that is, I'm very practical.
01:32 In other words, when I have to spend, I will spend.
01:36 When I like something, I will spend.
01:38 When it's for my kids, I'll spend.
01:41 When it's for my family, I'll spend.
01:44 But when it comes to me, I'm okay with that.
01:47 I'm happy with that.
01:50 Because at the end of the day, I have a lot of things that I don't need anymore.
01:58 Sometimes, for example, I like brand names.
02:02 I convince myself 20 million times that I need...
02:06 I can't sleep. I can't sleep.
02:09 Do I think about that bag?
02:11 Normally, I can sleep.
02:14 In other words, it's a sign that I don't need it.
02:18 The next day, I still think that I need to buy it because I can't forget it.
02:24 But sure enough, once I purchase it, I regret it for a week.
02:31 "Why? It's just a bag."
02:33 "What? You know that?"
02:35 So there's a regret factor.
02:37 So now, I'll say, "I have a lot of bags. I'll just put it here."
02:41 And then, this is what I'm telling myself right now.
02:45 I don't have a daughter.
02:48 So, you know what?
02:53 I'm saving more.
02:55 Anyway, that's all.
02:59 I think I was just very subconscious about saving, saving, saving, saving.
03:04 And thank God, I was.
03:06 Because I benefited from it.
03:09 It really helped me as I, of course, was growing up and maturing.
03:15 Just curious, the savings, is it a percentage?
03:18 Like a fixed percentage?
03:20 I don't count it like that.
03:23 Like I said, if I need something, I'll buy it.
03:26 But I just have to know that I need to recover.
03:29 Oh my God, I need to work.
03:33 I'm pressuring myself.
03:35 I need to work again.
03:37 You know what I mean?
03:38 But that's just it.
03:39 It's just that whole process.
03:41 Because I also grew up here in Showbiz.
03:44 I said, this is different from regular business or whatever.
03:49 Here, sometimes, there's a lot of work, right?
03:54 Sometimes, there's no work.
03:56 What if there's no work?
03:58 You can't do anything.
03:59 It's really seasonal.
04:00 There was a time I would get so depressed.
04:02 I would say, "Why don't I have a concert?"
04:04 "Why didn't anyone come to my concerts when I was young?"
04:07 So I would panic.
04:09 So that's why I learned how to produce.
04:13 I said, "Oh, I can do other things aside from just being in front of the camera."
04:17 "I can also do things behind the camera."
04:20 "I can put up small businesses."
04:23 Some work, some don't.
04:25 It's always a learning process.
04:27 What I realized is that maybe I am less afraid now to decide on certain things, to try out new things.
04:39 What I'm saying is true.
04:42 It's okay to try and fail rather than never trying at all.
04:47 Right?
04:48 And when it doesn't work out, that's the time you learn.
04:52 "Oh, I did that. It won't work for me."
04:56 So at least I know that I'm not afraid anymore.
05:00 I'm more adventurous with my decisions.
05:04 TV work.
05:05 Do you have plans of--
05:07 You had series before, you had variety shows.
05:11 It's different now, right?
05:14 Well, I just finished a season of For the Love that was on TV5.
05:20 Hopefully, there's another season for that.
05:23 Is that what you're saying about TV series?
05:27 As long as there's no "puyat," is that okay?
05:31 But why not?
05:33 If I feel the project, I can do justice with the role, the character.
05:40 Because now, everyone's so good.
05:42 When I watch it, I'm like, "This is so good."
05:46 If I feel I can do it, then it's okay. Why not?
05:49 And there's no "puyat."
05:53 I'm spoiled.
05:55 There's a cutoff.
05:57 What's still about Martin?
05:59 This is still about Martin.
06:01 Do you get bothered when they ask you about him?
06:04 Here it is.
