Introduction to Money Management


This Article goes out to the greatest human being, my greatest inspiration in life, to the most learned, most self-made and a true human being who is watching me from above and showering his blessings on me forever.

“This one is for you Grand pa for being my biggest teacher and my role model. Please accept my dedication to you as a token of love. Watching you over the years I’ve realized the importance of managing a very short but yet a very significant and influential word –‘MONEY’



Whole world revolves around this powerful word as entire universe becomes paralysed in its absence. It becomes even more essential for us to manage our resources as nothing seems impossible after we learn to manage this. Management of money gives inner satisfaction and adds glory to life as each one of us has some aspirations or desires. In order to achieve those, what we require is:-

·         Money

·         Money Management

Earning money would not suffice for these aspirations as we would also require some other skills like “Saving” and “Investing” along with “Earning”.

Many of us dream all day (dream to own a car, dream to own a house, dream to have a nice vacation etc.).  Believe me dreaming is not at all bad as these dreams only give us hope, courage and strength to stand still even in times of turbulence.

Have a dream, Big or Small?????? You need not worry

Dreams can be made into reality by doing just a bit of planning.

 Little planning (inclusive of above two)              ========= Dreams Come True

Planning of finances at an early stage can lead to achievement of all goals sooner or later. A small saving can turn into huge wealth after some years by investing wisely and properly with adequate resources. 

A Simple and Surprising Calculation:     

Rs.2000.00  ======/invested monthly=======/        Rs.1335774.00 (after 20 years)


One can feel more nearer to his dream on analysing the value of the wealth accumulated over the years. Hence it’s very essential to keep investing in order to achieve our dreams.

Watch out the space for more information on financial products, markets, planning and many more. J
