Career

Dear Sir/ Madam. I am 46 years old working in a reputed organisation. I have around 24 years experience and have worked in big Multinational companies. My job is technical job and have earned and saved good money. I earn a monthly take home salary of Rs. 3 lakh currently . I can crack easily any interviews as my communication is very good. But I find it very difficult to perform technical job due to limitation in grasping things. I was a below average student as I find it very difficult to remember. I do drama in work place and survived 24 years. Because of this I am very unhappy. But now I am in a stage where I want to be myself and be happy without being afraid in work place. How can I improve so that I go to work and come back happily. Thanks for your advice in advance.

Ans: Hello

Now that you are aware of your situation...accept it as is and start working on to be your natural normal self... believe in yourself and most important don't fear losing job. Imposter syndrome happens because we fear losing things in life.

All the best in your new journey.

It is good to note that you are curious to know about investments at an early age.

Keep expenses worth 6 months as emergency fund.

Have a term insurance cover in which you can extend amount of cover based on life stages.

Use NPS for your retirement planning.

For all other financial goals such as:

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I am not sure if you are looking for financial advice or relationship, but the general rule of thumb is that if you have any worries when you think of getting married, it's best to take things slow. As for the financial burden of getting married, it is important for both partners to contribute and shoulder the responsibilities. Things are much easier when

Hi,i am a female,i have had a lot of sexual intercourse before, and now I'm dating a guy who is a virgin,i told him the truth and he accepted me and we are in our second year of dating, i still can't get rid of the guilt i have for not being able to give him my virginity,what hurts me the most is, when my exes see and know about my boyfriend and me,they will laugh at him for dating someone like me, someone they once fucked,what should i do?

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I get that it's tricky but you have to understand that it's all in your head. Your exes might not even care, or even if they do, it does not matter. Your present partner doesn't have an issue with your past, and neither should you. What you are concerned about is a mere social construct. So every time you feel this way, make yourself understand that there's nothing to be guilty about.
Best Wishes.

HI Sir I want to invest in Physical Silver bars & coins. Can I get good returns in Silver in maybe next 2 to 3 years. Also want to know whether I can Sell silver bars at the same trending price?

Ans: Hello;

Instead of investing in physical silver, you may invest in silver mutual funds/ETFs.

This will not require any safe deposit locker, making charges and GST.

You may sell it whenever you want.

Also it pegged to the price of physical silver in India.

I completed my 12 in 2020 with pcb after this I give entrance and got admission in govt college and completed my d pharmacy at the age of 19 . Since childhood I always want to wearing white coat but after seeing my family condition I decide to give govt job exam in pharmacy field then I give esic pharmacist aiims raipur but not got selected in any a lot of hard work and sleep less night and next month rrb pharmacist exam held I feel very low I m 21 year already I belong middle class family and my father is sick I thought i was never selected what should I do

Ans: Hello dear,
You are not the only one facing critical problems in life. Yet, you completed your pharmacy degree at just 19. I believe you took the job examination only once and felt frustrated. Many candidates have applied multiple times before being selected. Don't lose hope; keep trying until you achieve success. Wasting sleepless nights won’t solve anything. You have limited time to prepare for the RRB Pharmacist examination next month. Wake up and work hard to pass it and fulfill your dreams! At just 21, you have plenty of time to reach your goals. Take care of your father while also preparing for your exams. Keep faith in God. Best of luck for your bright future ahead.
