Ans: Unfortunately, many people get caught in the debt trap and there is no easy way out. You should not take any personal or home loans till the business is settled. For now, please settle all our loans or try and get a restructuring of loans done, and start afresh.

I am 45 year age married male I am regularly see YouTube and purchase machinery to do self business but I don't I only kept machinery at home and each day plan i will do tomorrow also I have taken huge loan which emi is spell burden on me me social and financial life is affected I think positive business but I don't apply practically only watch intresting YouTube machine printing etc what shall I do sir ?
Ans: It sounds like you are facing a common challenge: the gap between watching and learning from YouTube videos and taking practical action to start a business. Here are some steps you can take to address your situation:

Assess Your Situation: First, take a step back and assess your financial situation and the impact of your actions. Understand the severity of the problem, how it's affecting your social and financial life, and your overall goals.
Set Clear Goals: Define specific and achievable business goals. What exactly do you want to achieve with the machinery you've purchased? Having clear objectives can help you stay focused.
Create a Business Plan: Develop a detailed business plan that outlines your business idea, target market, competition, revenue model, and financial projections. A well-thought-out plan can serve as a roadmap for your business.
Seek Professional Advice: Consider seeking advice from a financial advisor or business consultant. They can help you better manage your finances and develop a practical plan for your business.
Budget and Financial Management: Review your budget and financial situation to determine how to manage your loan and EMI payments. If necessary, explore options like debt consolidation, refinancing, or extending your loan term to ease your financial burden.
Time Management: You mentioned procrastination. Work on your time management skills to ensure you allocate time each day to work on your business. Create a schedule, set daily tasks, and stick to them.
Accountability: Share your goals and progress with someone who can hold you accountable, like a friend, family member, or a business mentor. Regular check-ins can help keep you on track.
Start Small: Rather than trying to do everything at once, break down your business plans into smaller, manageable steps. Start with a small-scale project to build your confidence and experience.
Learn with a Purpose: Continue to watch educational YouTube videos, but do so with a purpose. Apply what you learn immediately to your business. Don't get caught in a cycle of just consuming content without taking action.
Mindset Shift: Reflect on your motivations and identify any mental barriers that may be holding you back. Sometimes, fear or self-doubt can paralyze us. Working on your mindset and self-confidence can be crucial.
Networking: Connect with people in your industry or niche. Join relevant online forums, attend networking events, and build relationships with potential customers, partners, and mentors.
Adaptability: Be prepared to adapt your business plans as you gain more experience and feedback. Flexibility is essential for success in entrepreneurship.
Stay Persistent: Building a successful business takes time and effort. It's normal to encounter setbacks and challenges. The key is to stay persistent and keep moving forward.
Remember that taking action is the most crucial step. You may not have all the answers, but by starting and learning along the way, you can make progress and work towards achieving your business goals. It's essential to be patient with yourself and seek support when needed.

A doctorate from IIT Bombay in Metallurgy and masters from NIT in Manufacturing with 5 years of experience including 2 years in academics and currently working from past 3 years in industry where I work mostly on finite element analyst of forging and bulk extrusion process and New product development as manager heading a team of 5 people. I have working knowledge of 3-4 FE software related to metal forming domain along with ANSYS STRUCTURAL. Despite that I am not getting any interview calls as I am currently looking for a job switch and have put up my profile both on NAUKRI AND LINKEDIN. Some calls are coming to me but that are all irrelevant profiles in which my expertise is not there. I have been trying for the past 6 months but have not got any positive response. Despite such a highly educated person from premier institute and not getting any response is highly depressing. Could you suggest how to apply and where to apply and any other website where I shall make my profile to get a positive response ? I am open to other roles such as metallurgy, product management, operations, vehicle dynamics based CAE etc but companies are just looking for relevant experience and they are rejecting my profile if relevant experience is not found. What to do ? Please advise
Ans: It's understandable that despite your strong qualifications, you're facing challenges in securing relevant interview calls.
Tailor Your Resume: Ensure that your resume is tailored for the specific job roles you are applying to.
Keywords Matter: Use industry-specific keywords on your resume and LinkedIn profile. Recruiters and companies often use Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to screen resumes, which rely heavily on keywords.
Take help of professional to restructure your resume suitably.
Beyond Naukri and LinkedIn, explore industry-specific job portals. For your domain, platforms such as EngineerJobs.com, iMetalHub, and MetallurgicalJobs.
Make a list of companies that operate in your domain, then apply of your own.
You can upgrade your skill by doing online courses.
Hope these will help you. Give your feedback.

Hi, My name is Kunal, I am 38 years old and my wife is 30 years old. I will be retired at the age of 60. I have two kids, a boy(9 years) and a girl(3 years). My basic is 57000 and I get 3% annual increment on basic. My take home salary is 48000. I have PPF(12500/M), SSY(2000/M) and LIC(5850/M) and our monthly expenses around 20000. I want to buy a home, children's educational expenses and my retirement goals are 1 Cr. Can you give a valuable strategy, how and where to invest to get my all goals?
Ans: I presume you have endowment type life insurance policy from LIC, the returns from which are not up to the mark. If you can surrender it and take a term insurance plan then you can still save around 50K annually after factoring Term Plan premium of 20K pa, considering your current annual payment to LIC of ~70K. That translates to investible surplus of 4K + current monthly disposal income after expenses: 7K, So 11K SIP can be initiated. 4K SIP for 15 years will led to corpus of 22L+(13%return assumed) for daughter's education

If surrendering the LIC policy is not an option then you can still deploy the current balance of 7K + incremental disposable part of salary each year into a SIP for 22 years considering conservative return of 13% it can still build a retirement corpus of 1Cr+ as desired.

You can fund son's higher education through PPF but for daughter's education you need to hike investments in SSY also to 1.5L pa and for house you will need to find home loan(Use EPF partial withdrawal towards down payment)

Here it pertinent to note that you may need to increase your income in some way maybe either job change or spouse working so to have additional funds to invest for your goal fulfillment. Happy to help if you have any further queries.
