I have recently been interviewed by Ranjan Varma regarding my opinion about some matters related to personal finance. You can read the interview here: Raag Vamdatt: Helping People making Right Investment Choices
Some of the questions that have been covered are:
- Why is it that generally people avoid or have a fear of financial planning? What is the fundamental problem? Is it specific to India or is it a global phenomenon.
- What are the various options available for investments? What would be your recommendations?
- Can you give a brief overview of how should one’s portfolio be at different ages.. Eg at 25 years, 35 years, 45 years etc.
- Is it advisable to have a personal finance consultant who maintains ones portfolio? Are there people who do this? If so how much do they charge? Are they really helpful in the first place?
- Do you visualize a growing use of personal finance software to track and manage money in India?
- The Regulators are cracking the whip on Asset Management Companies and Insurers. What’s your wish list from the Regulators?
- What prompted you to start your Blog? What motivates you to keep on blogging?
