Carlo Aquino just took on a fun challenge where he shared some of his &#x27;rules&#x27; regarding different areas of his life. He says Virgos like him love balance and structure, and it definitely shows—whether it’s handling curfews, budgeting with his wife Charlie Dizon, or ensuring his shopping habits remain smart and strategic.First, Kapamilya Chat asked him about his rules on curfew, to which he said it’s all about avoiding the dreaded rush hour. As much as possible, he makes it a point to be home before the chaos of traffic kicks in. If he has errands to run, he starts early and aims to finish everything by 5 PM.When it comes to budgeting, Carlo&#x27;s in luck—he’s got a partner in crime. At home, he and his wife Charlie have divided their responsibilities. Charlie takes care of the grocery budget, while Carlo handles the utilities. It&#x27;s a teamwork approach that keeps everything running smoothly.Regarding his shopping rule, no matter how much he loves an item, he won’t buy it until he’s done his homework. That means researching the product, watching reviews, and comparing options to ensure it’s truly worth his money. Impulsive buyer? Definitely not Carlo!When traveling, he makes sure to budget wisely by setting a strict limit on his travel allowance. If he goes over, it’s only by a small amount.Carlo credits his star sign, Virgo, for his logical and practical approach to life. This mindset also shapes how he accepts acting projects. Before saying yes to any role, he ensures, as much as possible, that the script, characters, and overall process are laid out in detail. He may not be picky about roles, but he’s big on finding characters that challenge him. In fact, if a role scares him a little, that’s a sure sign it’s something worth taking on. “Sabi kasi, ‘pag hindi ka na nacha-challenge o hindi ka na natatakot, hindi ka na gumagalaw sa buhay,” thought Carlo, who stars in the international film, “Crosspoint.”He’s pretty laidback when it comes to friendship—no hard rules here! For him, it’s all about vibes and connection. He can be friends with anyone, as long as they get along. He even mentioned his close friend, Ketchup Eusebio, saying they’ve built a solid friendship because they just click, despite their different personalities.As for relationships, especially now that he’s married, Carlo keeps it simple. No strict rules—just the basics: always keep his misis in the loop and never forget those all-important date nights. It’s all about staying connected and making time for each other, even with their busy schedules.
