Book review : Age of Investing

Book review :
This book is a comprehensive guide to retirement planning in India. People in India are majorly seen in three categories :
📌 Upper middle-class
📌 Lower middle class
📌 Below Poverty line
Rich people have their assets in abundance so hardly ponder on investing. But these three categories need to ponder very deeply on how to invest and where to maintain their status or helping oneself to have bread and butter throughout their life time. When I grabbed this book , I was startled to read a detailed helpline in understanding the basics of personal finance in order to plan for future with confidence.

In today's scenario where many websites offer good income by simply playing, one needs to understand the basics before investing their hard earned money in any of the market or games. I got to learn about stock market investing, real estate investing and fixed income investments such as bonds, mutual funds , and other investment options.

The author ponders on the fact , "To make the most of your income and savings , its important to become financially literate , so you can distinguish between good and bad advice and make smarter decisions ". His detailed advice with proper flowcharts and comparative study makes it easy for any lay person to understand the statistics behind investing whether in fixed income , insurance or any long term plans.

His lucid manner and in- depth analysis of so many investment options makes the reader quite literate about many facts and to take a smart decision for their life depending upon their sources of income becomes crystal clear.

I learned so many tips and strategies to plan out my investing options and would recommend this book to all Indians.
Happy Reading!

Taming the Turbulent Mind: Yogic Meditation and Mindfulness for Combating Overthinking, Achieving Stress Relief, and Attaining Absolute Peace Deekay | Book Review What is turbulence? Any thoughts, or have you ever tried to tame any animal? I remember watching circus shows organised once a year in the city's open area for all the locals to enjoy. There I used to cherish the person who tamed the elephants or the lion (if any). But today I thought of taming my mind. Every second our thoughts are randomly moving and giving us goosebumps. Nowadays people have so many threads of work looming in their minds that they feel like completing but fail to prioritise. To dive into a river is not easy. But only a few people have the calibre to do that. The same is true with diving in your mind. This practice needs calmness of mind and anxiety levels to be very low. I had heard about meditation and its techniques to apply in your daily routine, but when I stumbled upon this book, my myths w...

The Psychology of Marketing: How Marketers Trick Us Into Buying More by Harinder Singh Pelia | Book Review Marketing is such an in-depth concept that it always transitions according to consumer preferences. The extent to which marketers go to sell their products will blow our minds away, as money comes first rather than people's needs. Even the bare detail that hints at our desires is manoeuvred to boost sales figures, often overshadowing the genuine connection between a brand and its audience. This relentless pursuit of profit can lead to practices that prioritise persuasive tactics over transparency, leaving consumers feeling manipulated rather than empowered. sales.
