Career

I want to open a restaurant but I don't have any capital and I'm from a lower middle class family so I can neither leave the job at once to follow my dreams nor I have any financial support from other sources. I've done my MBA and Business Analytics and working in a Hospitality Industry since last 12 years. How can I start up with my own restaurant?

Ans: Can start your business in partnership with someone. In which case you can provide the expertise and the other person can run the business. But it should not be against the policies of the company you are working in. Also partner should be reliable. I had a relative who started a restaurant in a similar way where they kept it open in late evenings after his work hours.

Question by Bhawani - Sep 09, 2023Hindi

Career

I want to start business but I have low capital. Plss help me out how to start a business sir.

Ans: In whatever is your area of interest, talk to as many experts and consumers you can.. evaluate if your idea is solving a real problem that your potential consumers face. Fine tune your business idea. Then again talk to people if they are willing to pay you money to sort out the problem.. and how much. Concurrently, talk to experts on the cost of solving the problem/ offering the solution. Wherever you think the cost of solution is lesser than what people are willing to pay, is a good idea to work on prima facie. Then create a detailed feasibility report. Take help of some expert at this stage. Understand the investments and evaluate how you will need to fund the business initially. See if you can get some grants / seed funding. Typically seed funding is through friends and family . There are also a few govt schemes for entrepreneurs- see if you can get some grant/ financial assistance under these schemes. Put some of your own money and start implementing your idea in the mean while. Don’t be over optimistic in your planning. Work for the best but be prepared for the worst.

Question by Suneet - Sep 16, 2023Hindi

Working in Pharmaceutical company quit my job and started my own business but not working now want to start new business but dnt have enough money and have no idea what to do. Probably thinking of starting food business like restaurant or cafe

Ans: Best to rigorously research and find out a business idea, that you would like to venture into, else it will see the same fate as your first business. Remember that entrepreneurship is more difficult than doing a job, so reconsider why you dont want to work in a company and have your own venture.

Question by Anil - Sep 21, 2023Hindi

Career

I have over 20 years of experience in the quick service restaurant and cafe business, have practically worked in all MNC and national chains. I lost my job 5 years ago and havent received any offer also because of covid lockdown, i have exhausted all my saving and still paying home loan. I wanted to start my own cafe business and have also made my business plan, but not getting any investor. Checked the consultancy channel also but mostly all portray that they know it all. How can i raise funds

Ans: Hi Anil, It would be difficult to raise funds to start a cafe, except from friends and family. So if you are not able to raise through this channel, and do not have funds to start on your own, please drop the thought for now and actively search for a job.

Question by Arkajyoti - Nov 07, 2024Hindi

Money

My age is 34 and I invest in SIP for around 30000 monthly. My current corpus is around 30Lakhs in MF, 10Lakhs in PF and another 10Lakhs in savings. I step up my SIPs every year by 2-3K, but I do not have much room to increase my SIP amount as my salary is very low. I want to retire with a monthly income of around 80K-1Lakh. What age can I retire?

Ans: Hello;

With your current investment levels, you may need 15 years to accumulate a corpus of around 3.46 Cr, which if annuitized may yield you a post-tax monthly income of 1.2 L assuming 6% annuity rate.

Returns from pure equity mutual funds are considered to be 12% and PF interest assumed to be 8%.

So you may consider about retirement, 15 years here onwards.

Happy Investing;

Relationship

My age is 47 male and my partner age is 41 we have a child of 12 years old i didn't had sex for more than 3 years and my partner is not interested in sex what is the solution ?

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
Did physical intimacy stop all of a sudden? Like, what could have led to your partner not wanting sex?
Usual causes:
- Hormonal changes in your partner causing disinterest
- Boredom of the usual routine in the bedroom
- Lack of intimacy and closeness outside the bedroom scene
- Loaded with housework that leaves your partner tired
- Sense of non-accomplishment if she is used to working earlier and is not doing that anymore
- Need to do something different other than taking care of the house in case she is a full time homemaker

I guess the only way to find out is to find out from her...focusing on her needs may help you ease on your needs...Start with her first and LISTEN to what could be going on in her mind.

All the best!

Im 54 married my wife 44 since our marriage 22 years all is fine even in my trouble time my wife supported me fully but last 2 years we are no contact situation even we shaare same house we have 2 kids 18 and 12. Last 2 year back she met her school friend from there she is ignoring me don't know how to fix it i Dought she has a affair with him. But m not getting clue. Hiw to find it

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
It's a wonder as to why she would suddenly be different from what you have been used to. It's also natural to pinpoint it to her reconnecting with her school friend if there is no other recent changes or events that might have caused her to act very different. The best is to ASK...she may not even be aware of her behavior change or the impact certain things are having on you.
While you have that chat, it will give you a fair understanding of what is going on with that friend of hers.
Communication is better than Assumption and in your case, it's best to talk things through...

All the best!

Relationship

Hi, I am a 48 year old unmarried woman. I stay with my parents and we 3 enjoy our life in our own way. I have 2 married elder sisters and share a loving relation with them. In short I am blessed with a loving and supportive family. But at times I miss having a man in my life. We have tried so hard but nothing materialised on the marriage front.All men in my age group either married or divorced with kids. Do u think its ok to get married if I find someone whom I like. Sometimes I feel i should atleast date someone and if marriage is to happen it will. I am single for a very long time. I am grateful to God for all the good things I have in my life. How to find someone no clue. Have tried thru matrimony no success. Not interested in any dating app. Nor interested in casual dating with a younger guy. I need someone of my age or elder. Pls advise. Thanks..

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
Of course, you must date someone if that's what you want and it's possible by entering the right social circles. Something that interests you can be a point of meeting; gym, sports, music groups, dance groups, theater groups...the list is long...
It just takes that little effort to join one of these and meet a few like-minded people who are not just into casual dating but are interested in pursuing a connection with you...So, give it a shot!

All the best!

Question by harsh - Sep 16, 2024Hindi

Relationship

Help me!!! 1.I'm starting new "work" on my own(challenging for me) but my mind says quit it, be quite & do nothing. I myself don't know that wether the result of work will be +ive or uncompleted like alws. 2. My mind has become like order seeker type, when someone orders me, I do those things with dedicated(but sad from inside) manner. But when myself will try something different(which i fear, but necessary) then. "I QUITS IT" & sometimes I don't even start. 3. I'm like stuck no clue what/whom I want to do in life, I'm in cllg(1 yr) doing (CSE) ,. 4. I want to do/try (sports,talking girls,study,stocks,coding..) many things, but myself, my thoughts(overthinker), R like just be in the place where u are[confused,po*n,think about past/future(being billio..re,olympics..), girl (that u liked & never talked), abusive/beating self,.. sometimes feels like end life, but don't hv courage for that also.. 5. I tried self help books, spirituality, god, self affirmation, writing... & thay affected me(sometimes) but for only some time, then again that devil me comes up &these things never get completed. As no one in my family knows about all these, so that's Y ,I hv to fight/loose/try again, the battles with myself.

Ans: Dear Harsh,
If in the past you have had the urge to QUIT, how is this time going to be different? This is not to discourage you from taking up 'new work' but pointing out that there is some amount of work that you need to put to clear the mind out of blockages.
-What is limiting you?
- What is the reason for putting off things?
- What comes first to the mind when you start something new?
Also, focus on one thing at a time; study and go deep into it...what's this thing with work? I don't understand. When the mind is unsettled, take one thing/activity, pursue it and finish it. It could simply be studying for Year 1 of your college...just only do that...once your mind is trained in completing an activity, you can add another one the next year along with studying and then pursue both...it could be some sport and studying...then the next year, you could add a third activity. This is called 'training the mind in discipline'. Discipline will make sure that you start and finish things...So, go slow and do one thing at a time.

All the best!
