Who Shall I be Today? Book Review

"A woman can never be “just” a woman. She is a million people in one person."  I was happy to receive the book from the author herself.  ‘Who Shall I be Today?' by  Sunita Saldhana is a collection of poems which delves into what makes up a woman. As what William Wordsworth has once said, “ Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquillity,''  It is indeed true that poetry is a matter of inspiration and has less to do with ideas.

The author has written and narrated the stories to touch upon human lives and the emotions of everyday situations.   Heartbreak, pain, death, separations, and the harsh realities are all part of human lives, and one must go through the test no matter what. The book is a mix of emotions, insp

Dedicate the 7th of every month to invest for your Future

The importance of saving money for the future is known to all. Earn and Save is how the cycle of our financial plan works. But, have you given a thought about investing your money on the right platform or what if we can do something different and better? So that you no longer have to worry about your finance. Life is full of uncertainty, and we need to be prepared for the unexpected. As much as saving is important, it is also important to invest and keep your future secure. We worry more about financial shortcomings rather than looking for a solution to overcome that problem. Here I am talking about investing your assets for the future by capitalizing on your present income. How about investing your money in mutual funds? It is a great option for those looking for an opportunity to grow money over a period of time by investing small amounts.  Most people have an incorrect notion of the risk associated with investing in mutual funds and are unaware of its benefits.
