    “Because in the end, financial independence is not just about earning, it’s also about having a say.

    What follows here is a glimpse into a larger conversation - one that many women have had silently in their heads, and one that this book dares to bring out into the open.”

    When it comes to your investments - sometimes it’s better to just do NOTHING!

    The constant news and information about the world and the US and tariffs has riled us all. The sharp market correction may have made you anxious and your anxiety goaded you into selling.

    In reality, selling your equity allocation in the correction would have been a losing proposition. Why?
    Listen in to the video to understand why taking short term actions in a long term asset can be detrimental to your financial health 💰⛑️😷

    JUST DO NOTHING!!

    Can you do that???

    It was a happy moment when I could finally share a copy of Money & her with @edelweissmutualfund Edelweiss MF’s MD & CEO @iamradhikagupta Radhika Gupta.

    I literally went on a monologue about the book. She indulged me, listened and asked pertinent questions about the stories and the women in them.

    I shared more about the stories I thought she would like to read and hopefully, she will find the time for that! 📚

    Thanks Radhika, for taking the time out!!

    Money & her is an attempt to nudge women to embrace their financial independence and in doing so, give wings to their unique identities without any hesitation. Your voice on the dual subject of money management and owning one’s identity without fear, is powerful and lends so well to this endeavour.

    Mixing up the head and the heart

    Money has a practical side but it also has a very emotional side.

    How much we use our heart and emotions to make money decisions, affects the practical outcomes we desire from our money.

    My process while writing Money & her - a bit of heart and a bit of head 🙂💕

    EMPOWERING …

    This is the term I’m coming across in so many reader reviews for Money & her

    In this personal finance book, numbers take a backseat.

    The idea behind the book is to nudge women to own their financial independence in its entirety. 🙌

    This is not just about women being able to earn …

    … its about participating in money decisions that impact your family
    … it’s about managing money to achieve your life’s desire
    …. its about understanding that personal
    finance is basic hygenie and not entertainment

    Its also not a feminist statement or a challenge to men, rather I explore how we can have collaborative experiences.

    I hope that every household gets a copy of Money & her and it continues the job of empowering women and uplifting families in this journey 😊😊

    An incredibly humble leader and MF industry veteran, @pgimindiamf, CEO, Ajit Menon was not only very welcoming when I stepped into his office to share a copy of Money & her, but also the conversation around how behaviour impacts investing was so engaging that I missed capturing the moment in a picture!!

    He was kind enough to send me one later! 📚 😊

    Ajit’s thoughts around comprehensive personal finance solutions linked to behaviour and suitability come forth like a fresh breeze and you realise how critical it is to shift our mindset away from products and towards solutions. Solutions which are unique to each individual and family. Focussing on solutions makes room for financial products with many varying features depending on unique requirements and behaviour.

    Thank you Ajit for taking the time out and for the thought provoking conversation.

    Money & her is also a conversation, around financial independence which looks beyond just your ability to earn, towards your ability to own your identity and use your money to enable a life that’s most aligned with your core values.
    Let’s continue to take this conversation forward!!

    Writing Money & her helped me become not just entirely aware of my relationship with money but also gave me the courage to own my insecurities with money...

    What does it mean when you say that you’re working towards financial freedom? Freedom from what? This term is overused and highly misunderstood. Financial freedom sounds like you must accumulate a certain sum of money to attain some sort of monetary nirvana early in life and then you will be free. It’s the two words in ...

    Professor Steve Peters in his book, The Chimp Paradox, talks about how all of us harbour an inner chimp. This restless, unthinking, instinct and emotion driven part of our inner selves, is not you, it’s like an alter ego, the part of you that can show up unannounced.

    Investing your money is a multiple-choice game today. You can pick across assets – right from bank deposits to commodities, art and wine. There is always one flavour of the season; in the pandemic, it was cryptocurrencies, then NFTs and most recently startups. Honestly, it’s an exhausting task to follow the trend. And what if ...

    Starting your first investment no longer requires much thought or action. It’s literally a job done in 30 mins. Nevertheless, where you invest today makes a big impact on your future investment choices too.

    Your first job, first pay cheque, your first spend with your own money, these are all milestones that we remember. The excitement around the first paycheque usually has to do with spending it. That’s a very big part of feeling accomplished and initiating your journey of financial independence and security.
