Chennai Personal Finance: Set Financial Goals

Sponsored by OruAcre.com

In the back of your mind, you know you'd like to retire, save some money for your kids' educations, go on a vacation or two and do a few other things. But writing these plans down can help give clarity to those goals. Keep these goals handy, so when you're tempted to spend, you can decide if it's really worth the trade-off.

The financial goals might be:
College studies for children
Marriage arrangement for children
House or Land Buying
When to retire
Medical Expenses for you and spouse
Buying a movable or immovable property
Starting a small business
etc.,

Be sure to list down your financial goals and stick to it.

Personal Finance: Control your expenses

There are various ways you can save and increase your personal cash flow.
Controlling your expenses is one way of increasing your earnings.

Maybe you can't control your spending when you walk into an electronics store - or maybe you always have to have an extra pair of shoes and get tempted to buy the extra pair of shoes, even though you have three pairs already. It is all about controlling your senses, documentation and clarity in thought.

If we have sat down and calculated in our excel sheets about how much money is coming in and how much money is going out and what is the cash flow and what is my earning potential, then we won't do the mistake of buying something which is not needed or which is not affordable, considering the money we have in hand.

Personal Finance: Emergency funds for your financial stability

Always be sure to make and keep an emergency fund of Three Month Salary in a safe savings account. This money has to be reachable and we should be able to take it out anytime you want.

If the emergency fund is not a three month salary, at least you should have the expenses needed for three months and to support the family and the money to pay your credit cards in this period of time.

If you don't have emergency funds, your credit cards will suffer and it will lead to severe credit card debts.

If you are a family man, with your non-earning wife and dependant child/children, then definitely emergency fund is needed.

Chennai New Year Resolutions 2007

INVESTING, SAVING, FINANCE, BUDGET, FITNESS, HEALTH, HELP OTHERS, BE GOOD TO EVERYONE, KEEP SMILING...

New Year Resolutions are very easy to list, but it is very difficult to follow them.
Here are some New Year Resolutions I am thinking - I am not sure I will follow, but I wanted to write this:

1. Fitness: Keep yourself healthy. Read all the nutrition facts before you eat anything. Keep your diet carefully - Watch what you are eating daily. Avoid fried items, but have the boiled items. Eat fresh food and avoid frozen food. Avoid Trans fats. If you are eating more, work it out and burn your carbohydrates. Beware of fatty items. Keep yourself active and have physical activity.

2. Start Saving: Start your savings, if you are not doing it already. Start Savings Early. Make your savings automatic. Let the money get transferred to savings and investment accounts. Keep some money aside anytime you get an income. Utilize the retirement accounts like Provident Fund in India or 401K in USA.

Plan yourself where you are going financially in life. Set financial goals and plan clear action items to achieve the financial goals.

Financial Stability is as important as your health!!

3. Keep Smiling: Whatever happens, keep your mind stable. Be positive and keep smiling. Smile is a big jewel for everyone. Being positive and smile will make you a very attractive person to everyone.

Key Investment Ideas for middle class folks

Sponsored by OruAcre.com

Well, this is year end and we are in December, which happens to be the last month of the year. After this month, we have a fresh new year and new month of the new year starting.

We can do lot of things, before we start the new year. I would mostly talk about better investing here...Some key points to remember while you invest are -

(i) If you are young, single and started earning, that is the best! You can do wonders in your finance side.

(ii) First priority is to close or reduce all your debts. If you have increased your credit card bills, just try to close them as soon as possible. It is waste to pay interest for credit cards. Try to avoid them.

(iii) If you are an important person in the family and an indispensable bread-winner, be sure to have an insurance. It is the important stuff. Many ignore this, but it is highly important.

(iv) Couple of options for investing -

(a) Mutual Funds
(b) NSC, KVP and other post office schemes and small savings schemes
(c) LIC insurances such as Jeevan Shree, Jeevan Anand etc.,
(d) Real Estate
(e) Stocks and Shares
(f) Provident Fund
(g) Little Donations!!

HAPPY INVESTING and BECOMING WEALTHY!!

How to become RICH and build wealth!!!

All about investment, financial planning, mutual funds, stocks, shares

Contrary to popular belief, building wealth doesn't necessarily require a large inheritance or an unexpected windfall. What it takes is planning, perseverance and good investing habits. The following time-tested financial plan strategies may help put you on the road to building your own wealth.

Use SYSTEMATIC INVESTMENT PLAN to see the potential benefits.

Have a financial goal
Spend time planning your financial future and know what you're working towards. Set clearly defined weekly, monthly, yearly and lifelong goals. Whether it's owning your own home or early retirement, you have to know where you're going if you want to get there.

Evaluate your financial goals regularly
While establishing your goals is an important step, regular evaluation of them is also critical. Just as your life changes over time, so too will your goals and objectives. Marriage, the birth of a child or even a job change are just a few of the events that may require you to revisit your goals and the investment strategies that may help you achieve them.

Spend less than you earn
Living below your means is one sure way to have the money you need to save and invest. Get into the habit of spending less than you earn and paying yourself first through a systematic investment plan. This way the money is invested before you have a chance to spend it.

Minimize your debt
Every dollar you spend paying interest on debt is money lost. Even a 10% return on investments isn't going to amount to much if you are paying 18% in interest charges. Instead, consolidate any debt you have to one credit card. By setting a target date and establishing a regular payment amount, you can reduce your debt and eliminate unnecessary interest expenses.

Invest early, wisely, often and as much as you can afford
Even a small amount of money invested wisely has the potential to grow into a big return over time. This is because investing early allows you to take advantage of the power of compounding gains.

Seek out the professional guidance you need
Developing and maintaining an efficient investment strategy takes time, knowledge and resources — a combination that is not easy to come by. Your financial advisor is there to provide the professional, objective guidance you need to create a plan that addresses your investment needs and can be changed as your life does. Taking advantage of this expertise is a critical step in helping you realize your goals.

Chennai Women in Trading these days...

Trading in shares is not any more a male bastion. Every one is aware of the change taking place in the metros. What is revealing is the increasing participation by women even in non-metros too, such as Chennai and other towns in south such as Dindugul where Ms Selvi Raman, at 47, is in the trading activity for the last three years in the company of her friends in the Ladies Club there.

Does this sound interesting...?

Special question bank for X, XII students - Inefficient Education System!!?

After reading the news article from The Hindu,

I could not stop thinking - what an ineffective education system, we have back home!!
Already the books are being memorized by the students, and now the government or the education board comes up with the question bank.

Question bank is a set of questions prepared by the board of teachers. These questions are likely to be asked in the Board exams.

How is the memorizing studies going to help the students in their life ahead!? I don't see any value addition, by providing question banks!!

Students should be encouraged for thinking independently and living their life by themselves as fast as possible!

Can we ever create a Silicon Valley in India?

Can we ever create a Silicon Valley in India? - An article by Chandu Thota!

Before you start reading this, I recommend you read Paul Graham's "Why Startups Condense in America" because I keep referring to it in this post.

So, can we ever have a Silicon Valley in India? As Paul says, to create startups the basic ingredients that you need are nerds and rich people. I've been to both Bangalore and Hyderabad - both have great schools (granted Bangalore has IISc and that's one of a kind on the planet so it has an edge over Hyderabad - but this is not about Hyderabad vs. Bangalore) and both have rich people from the IT boom in India - so is that enough to create a right mix to start startups? No, not quite.

Calling India from America

I remember those days, when we have to run to an indian store or a calling card shop for buying a calling card, in order for me to call India. There were many calling cards who have so many loop holes and hidden costs to loot money from the consumers.

Now, it is slowly becoming standardized...
Reliance came up with Reliance India Call - relianceindiacall.com
Tata has come up with Reliable Calling - reliablecalling.com

Now, Airtel has come up with Airtel Call Home - airtelcallhome.com.

Now that there is a healthy competition starting up, we consumers can benefit!!!

Goldman Sachs chalks up record profits in 2006

The New York-based investment banking company that made the financial arrangements for privatizing the Indiana Toll Road had an exceptional financial year in 2006.

In fact, The New York Times reports that Goldman Sachs did so well, each of its 26,000 employees will end the year with an average of $622,000 in salary and bonuses.

It looks as though Goldman Sachs can afford to be generous – its profits increased to around $9.5 billion this year, up 70 percent from 2005.

Chennai Fast Foods and Chennai Hotels/ Chennai Restaurants

Chennai has a huge potential for hotel and restaurant business. Especially fastfood business should go very well.

Chennai Pizza has not reached much, but it definitely is a good business, if you make it as Chennai Biriyani Business. Business model can be prepared very well, by making biriyani to be delivered in a specific time only. We can make it really professional, as we have any Domino's Pizza or Pizza Hut or any similar brands.

But definitely the business has to be structured, planned very well, before execution. The main thing would be the taste of Biriyani as well. If we make sure we have a good chef/master to do this, we are better off.

Think about it guys...If you are away from Chennai - you can have someone work on it in Chennai to execute and make your dream possible!!

Realize the potential of Return of Investment in Chennai!!

Chennai Tea Shop - Comparing Coimbatore

When Coimbatore is working hard, Chennai sits idle. Please don't be offended by the sentence above.

Coimbatore has huge set of industries. They work very hard. They are early to bed and rise early. Huge set of buildings, huge set of industries, huge set of schools and colleges. Coimbatore is also a tier II city, while Chennai is also one.

In Chennai tea shop, two (shop customers)guys will be having tea in the night 3 AM, sitting on the tea shop bench and discussing whether there will be vadai or bajji in the early morning.

While Coimbatore folks will be getting ready for work!
No offense to our Chennai folks, but I want this to change...

All we are concerned is - This situation should change. People should work. Those daytime banyan tree sitting folks has to go to work or do some useful things. Those going for a movie at 11:00 AM in the morning to the theatre has to change and go to work or do useful things. Those tea shop sitting folks has to go to work!

Everyone works for themselves, things will change - Family will get better. Microecomonics will flourish. If families grow and flourish financially, city grows, state grows, country flourishes economically - Macroeconomics.

Chennai Dirty Politics

Recently we had elections in Chennai for Chennai Central constituency. As usual, there was competition between two huge parties. Well, that is good. Competition is good. Please go ahead...

But, when campaigning, things has to be fair right?! Looks like people living in the constituency received money and other gifts from the party folks. I am not sure, if the leaders of the party knew about this. But, still these kind of bribes to voters is still going on.

Moreover, this is not from just one party. It is given by most of the parties contesting.

Will this situation change? Who will change this? Will people reject the offer from the politicians? Or will politicians and supporting people stop doing this and make the elections fair?!

The above article is my personal opinion...

Will Chennai improve?!



Image Courtesy: Dinamalar.com
Thanks to Dinamalar for the photo. I had to take this photo from Dinamalar and write this article, because I don't have a way to refer to this article.

Chennai's youth time, energy is getting wasted in Rasigar mandram activities and praying the actors and actresses. Doing pooja for the actors and actresses etc.,
The passion for these youths seems to be for actors, cinema etc., only and not for achieving something huge in life!

The passion in life seems not to be about doing something different in life, not starting up something or not leaving a different Chennai for the following generation!

Always Chennai is going to be Chennai and never going to become New Chennai, if we keep hearing these kinds of news about MADURAI!!

I am feeling ashamed of it. I want to hear news about Chennai like somebody from Chennai had started an industry, which is going to give job for huge number of civilians of Chennai and not the news about Jin abishekam for Actors!

Will that happen someday??

Will Chennai improve?!

I am feeling ashamed of it. I want to hear news about Chennai like somebody from Chennai had started an industry, which is going to give job for huge number of civilians of Chennai and not the news about Jin abishekam for Actors!

Will that happen someday??

Chennai Thinking: Best place to think!

These days, I am noting down, where/when am I getting the best ideas for all of my activities. You know where/when?

It is my home Bathroom/Restroom. Please note - it is not other people's bathroom. It is my bathroom. This is a very private place, where even my wife cannot get in into my personal space. It is very private. Nobody can get into your personal space!

I have got solutions to many of my problem, when I am under the shower. Most of the time, while I am in restroom, I think about the problem seriously, but when I am under the shower, I have seen my mind so clear and thinking goes very casually and goes highly logical.

Believe me, my thinking under the shower, does not become emotional, instead it is highly practical, rational and logical. I believe, it should be true for most of you all.

Overall, I think if you are stressed out, you can do two things - (i) sleep off. If you are not able to sleep, then go ahead and sit on the restroom. If that does not help, then take a hot/warm shower. Your mind will become very clear, and you will be out with the solution.

Hardships while building a company

Hardships while building a company

There are lots of hardships, while you are on the process of building the company for
yourself. Let us take up one hardship aspect from that for now.

Ego - If you want to reach the top, you should not have super ego. You should not react to situations. You should always try to be proactive. Do not put your ego before you talk. Set aside your ego away and talk and behave as a simple person in any situation. Do you work and help others as well. Do not think that it is my work and I will do. This is your work and you should do etc., If you have completed your work - you need to help others. Because it is all team work. We all should work together.

Be an example to the whole team for being a driver to all the things and exemplify your role with team work starred on it.

Partnership

Partnership

Partnership is a relation which is peculiar and if you will feel a different experience, if you are doing it for the first time. You will have to adjust on many things, in order for you to have the business running. If there are some differences in opinions and ideas, there needs to be adjustments in many places.

If you have the same wavelength, then you must be fine. But when you think the other person's stuff is stupidity and if you are not able to convey it properly to him, you screw the partnership.

You might think that partnership is good, when you work like friends. No conflicts and adjust on things - as if you are arranging for a birthday event, working with other friends.

Patience is very important in all aspects. In some cases, you cannot blow up the
relationship. Because the other person might be very important for the business, in some cases later.

So practice the following:
1) You should set your mind that when you are into partnership - you will have some
disturbances then and there.
2) Be friendly
3) At the same time professional in all the matters you discuss.
4) Be Patient
5) Learn to adjust and accept ideas.
6) Any action should do justice to all of the members of the organization.
7) Just do your duty - God is there to see to the results. He knows what to give for what

you have done on the job!! Do not think of the results - Just do your duty!!

Remembering Chennai - Yen Sontha ooru - Vadivelkarai!!

Remembering Chennai - Yen Sontha ooru - Vadivelkarai!!

Though I was born in Chennai, the place my father was born and the place where my
grandfather lived was Vadivelkarai, a small village just near Nagamalai Pudukkottai, like less than 10 Kms away from Central Chennai.

Just for reference sake, a nearby village is called Keezhakkuyilkudi.
Just in between these two villages - there is a temple called Karuppana saamy temple. This temple is surrounded by a lotus pond and a small mountain/hill.
The hill is called Samanar Malai(Samanar's hill). I have noticed steps carved for the visitors to climb up the mountain. When you go really up, you can see statues carved out of the mountains for the buddha and mahavira's. Looks like many saints and artists do their work or meditation in this mountain. In the back of the mountain you can see an archaelogically safeguarded cave kind of a thing, in which you can rest in peace.

The pond which has lotus flowers looks beautiful. You can find people taking bath in four entries to the pond. It is even said that there is a crocodile inside this pond. Well, I have not seen one, but I have seen lots of fishes. In winter, we can see lot of water. In summer, the water gets reduced.

I used to visit this village very often, from my school days. I always loved this place, because it is a village and life is very simple. I have felt the difference even in those days - about city and village. A complex to simple life - just with Chennai and Vadivelkarai!! I have felt more happiness in a village, rather than Chennai city.

My grandfather passed away, but he is still lived by his wife - my grandmother. We still have a small house in the village.

If you are a visitor or tourist of Chennai, if you get a chance, please visit this place - If you are in Chennai - you can go to this village from any busstand. There is a direct bus from Chennai Periyar Central Busstand, but you have to take two buses from other busstands.
