Fully loaded with ... @ b-school

First half of the first term @ b-school and I am fully loaded with

Balance sheet that don't balance
Accounting equation which had debited my brain with frustation
Supplies that aren''t demanded
Accounts which I can't count
Some useless statistics with highly any marginal utility
Information technologies that hardly carry any information
Acts of associaation that dissociates my brain
The hairs that are depreciated from my head by means of scratching
Probablities, to understand which is improbable
A grouped data set of competants in which I am an outright outlier in the negative direction
Motivation theories that leave me demotivated
Leadership theories, which I try to follow
Theories of satisfaction that leaves me dissatisfied
Assignments that I wish had never beeen assigned to me
Researches, which I don't want to search even once
Communication, whose message I couldn't grasp

All paths leading to the so called "dream jobs", which we don't have any time to dream of.

Rich, yet bankrupt

Originally published on BeingFinWise __ Tennis legend Boris Becker is in news - for wrong reasons. He is having auction off his trophies to pay off his debts . Even then, the debt will not be fully repaid. To think of it, he was the youngest Grand Slam champion & considered one of the greats in tennis. He won Wimbledon when he was just 17! At that level, tennis does pay a huge amount of money! So we can safely assume, that he would have had no dearth of money. Boris Becker is not the only celebrity to be rich, yet bankrupt. There are ample examples. For example, Michael Jackson died, he was in huge amount of debt.

What's the purpose of investing?

"Investment" - This word is much used and often much abused one. One keeps on hearing this almost all the time be it in office or catching up with friends or attending a family functions - almost everywhere. More so when we are fed with lot of information about how one needs to make money work to get more money. However, for a lot of people, the clarity on one question is often lacking - What is the purpose of investing? And even if one knows his/ her purpose of investing, it is often not implemented in real life. For instance, purpose of one's investments may be having sufficient funds in times of need. Yet they may opt for a personal loan when faced with pressing need for money. Based upon my observations, below are some of the most common purpose of investments (in no particular order) I invest because there is some sufficient funds lying with me and I can get great returns. I am investing for some specific goal - buying a house, education of kids, m...

Loans you should avoid

Originally published at BeinfFinWise __ Giving loans is a risky business. Business of banks and financial institutions rely on people taking loans and then repaying it, thus giving them profits. Many have built a fortune based upon giving loans. Loans also serve an important function for the economy by being a facilitator to businesses, housing, automobiles and other elements of consumption.  However,  what is good for financial institutions may not necessarily be good for you, especially when it comes to loans. While some loans may be good loans and help you prosper, there are several others which may derail your financial plans, if any! Taking loans can also lead to compounding work against you - a situation which anyone with long term financial goals would like to avoid. (Lot of the below is based upon Indian context.
