Lessons from Amitabh Bachchan :
  1. Never blindly believe on fund managers, they may be wrong at times. Ex:ABCL disaster
  2. Always diversify your investments. Ex: His portfolio
  3. Always try to have a second income source. Ex: ABCL, Add , team he owned, TV shows.
  4. Accept failure and never give up, sometimes life teaches us many things. Ex: Post bankruptcy the way he fought back and re established.
  5. Try to learn new skills which may help you to earn more as in case of KBC he did.
  6. Learn to invest in stocks Ex: His Just dial deal


When you have money you have a chance of loose it and in today world the chance of loosing money is more.
Remember No fund manager can take more care of your money than you do it by yourself….After all this is your hard earned money.

Else you will lose and when people will ask you…"Aaj mere paas gaadi hai, bungla hai, paisa hai... tumhare paas kya hai?" you will end up saying "Mere paas, mere paas... Maa hai...," J J J

You also may end up saying a different dialogue all together too "Main aaj bhi pheke hue paise uthata hun,"  J

So guys what do you say??? Do you learn something from his life story….????

The Monkey , Goat and Stock Story :)

By
So there was this village where one day a man appeared and said that he wanted to buy monkeys. He said that he would pay a hundred rupees per monkey. The villagers caught all the monkeys in the neighborhood and sold them to him for a hundred rupees each. Soon another man appeared and said that he would pay two hundred rupees for each monkey. But there weren't any more monkeys around. They were all owned by the first man. So the villagers went to him and said that they were willing to take the monkeys back and return his money. But the monkey owner was unwilling to sell. The villagers raised the offer price to Rs 150 per monkey, then Rs 175 and finally to Rs 199 but the man just didn't want to sell, even though he clearly didn't have any use for the monkeys. Eventually, just to see whether he would sell, they offered him Rs 200 but he still refused. The villagers were puzzled by this. Finally, one of them figured out that there must be someone else who was going to...

How To Become Rich???? Part-1

By
You are reading this blog means you have an aspiration to become rich….. Wish you  Good luck   in   your  future   endeavours…. In this materialistic world everybody wants to become rich ….. Isn't it! But very few know the way to find this….. I completed reading the book “think rich and grow rich” by Napoleon Hill, “ Rich Dad Poor Dad” by Robert Kiyosaki and in the mid of reading another awesome book “the richest man in Babylon” by George S. Clason. Just could not stop myself from sharing the secrets with you. Though these books were written almost a century or half a century back, I will try to co–relate this with our modern age. Coming to the point, my back ground is from IT. So I will give you an example of people mindset from this field. As a software engineer I saw people going crazy of working from onsite and making quick money by earning dollars or any other format of currency whose value is stronger as compared to Indian...

Is debt fund is better than a FD with 10% interest?

By
Last weekend I thought of doing a FD and was checking with various corporate FD and Bank FDs What I found DHFL corporate FD for 40 months is giving 10.10% interest. But I had a mixed  experience with FDs because last time when I did FD with HDFC ltd , though I did with high interest rate of 10.50%, I got minimal return because of taxation. This time I did not want to repeat the same mistake. So I was checking what are other avenues where post tax return for me would be better than these high interest rate FDs. I found debt funds are better than bank FDs in long run for post-tax return. Now question arises how?  J Before understanding we need to understand  Cost Inflation Index(CII) What is CII? It is used for calculating long term capital gain from income tax act section 48 CBDT has notified the Cost Inflation Index (CII) for Financial Year 2014-15. Complete Notification is Given Below. SECTION 48, EXPLANATION (v) OF THE INCOME-TAX ACT...
