Question by Piyush - Aug 31, 2025Hindi

Money

Ans: HI PIYUSH,
Difficult to secure a seat in the top GECs, but may be possible at lower-ranked GECs.

You have a potencial in securing a seat in colleges like Kalyani Government Engineering College (KGEC) and Dr. B.C. Roy Engineering College may have openings for a rank in your range, particularly in branches like Mechanical, Civil, or Electrical Engineering, for which the cutoff ranks are often lower than for CSE and other government colleges in West Bengal, which are not as highly ranked as Jadavpur University, which might consider your OBC-A rank.

BEST WISHES.

Money

Hi Sir, I am 46 years old with a Wife and a daughter (12 years old). Planning to retire by age of 50. Current net worth includes - Stock Market portfolio (including Stocks, MFs, PMS) - INR 3 CR, 2 Flats worth INR 4.5 CR without any home loans. Long Term investments like NPS, Sukanya Samruddhi, LIC, EPF/PPF etc - 1 CR, FDs- 20L, Gold (Physical +ETF) - 70L. Current Monthly expenses - 60-70K per month. Now, I understand that my daughter's Graduation and PG education expenses may cost anywhere around 1CR (inflation included). Also the medical/health expenses will be required too. Considering all of the above, how do you recommend I can plan for retiring at 50? I do plan to stay invested in equities for long term even after retirement. Thanks for your advice.

Ans: Thank you for the query. Congratulations. You seems to have already planned well for post retirement period. However, You have not shared your current income details at present, Passive income after proposed retirement age and whether any of your house property has been rented out. Also not given monthly investments etc. Hence unable to offer my comments on overall financial position. It is suggested to connect with a Certified Financial Planner (CFP) and share your full details and discuss your life goals etc. CFP and you both can sit together and arrive at a proper retirement planning. All the best.

Health

My wisdom tooth isn't hurting, but food keeps getting stuck and the area smells bad. Google scared me with infection stories, while some people say don’t remove it unless there’s pain. I’m genuinely confused. Should wisdom teeth be removed proactively or only when they cause problems?

Ans: Hello

I understand why you’re worried - food getting trapped and a foul smell can be very unsettling, but no pain doesn’t automatically mean you can avoid a dentist's visit. If the tooth is partially erupted or impacted, it creates a pocket where bacteria thrive, which explains the odor and can lead to gum inflammation or a low?grade infection. Many dentists recommend _proactive_ removal when they see a high risk of future issues (crowding, decay, cysts) even without pain. On the flip side, if it’s fully erupted, easy to clean, and not messing with your bite, your dentist might just monitor it and suggest a good hygiene regimen (floss, mouthwash, water?flosser).

My advice is to get an X?ray and a dentist’s opinion. If they spot infection signs, cysts, or trouble cleaning, they’ll likely suggest extraction. If it’s clean and you can keep it infection?free, you can wait and watch.

I brush twice a day and floss most nights, but I still keep getting cavities. My dentist says it could be my enamel or saliva, which honestly confused me. I also drink lemon water every morning thinking it’s healthy.

Ans: Hello

You're one of very few people I know who brush and floss their teeth regularly. Keep it up!
It's important to note, however, that your brushing technique is also very important. Not just how frequently you brush.
It's possible your enamel is weak or poorly calcified which could be the reason why you keep getting cavities. If you had a calcium deficiency during childhood - when your teeth were developing - it's likely that your tooth enamel is hypocalcified and hence more prone to decay.
Saliva, like your dentist suggested, can also play a role. Acidic saliva can erode and weaken tooth enamel.
Fresh lime has a similar harmful effect on your teeth. You should at least rinse your mouth thoroughly after drinking lime water so that traces of it don't remain.

Relationship

How to make long distance work? My husband works in UAE and we have two kids. I am managing everything here and when we talk, there is no love or romance. Even when he comes home there are so many things lined up, we hardly get time for each other. Is this how couples become after marriage? I feel depressed but there is no one to talk to. My children take up my time but at night I feel lonely and miss him.

Ans: Hello mam. I hope you are fine and enjoying good health.
Talking about your life, i understand that it feels very lonely and weird to live a life like this. Every person has a dream that after marriage, we ll live as a couple and will enjoy.
I also understand that it may feel like a burden that you are taking care of the kids here alone and he being working there. But i think you both know that this life has been chosen by you after understanding each and every aspect.
You should take some quality time it may be on phone. Don't talk about your kids ir problems.on phone. Talk about yourself, about your day, your life, what you had today , where did you go today and all
Things will start improving slowly. He ll start missing you the same way you do.
I hope this helps
Take care!

Question by SP - Dec 11, 2025Hindi

Relationship

i am 42 yrs married and i married before 15yrs.My spouse cheated me before our marriage, she had a relationship with one guy.. that time i also asked her abt this guy but she not told me anything. and second day of my marriage i came to know that she cheated me.i completely broke down and i told her don't leave with me. go to your home. but she said i didn't know how this happened and i was very sorry for my mistake and i will never do it again in my life.. now its almost 15 yrs went away but still i unable to forgot what she done with me. we have two kids. Since the day i warned her before 15 yrs still today she listen everything i want, every words, whatever she want to do she always took my permission. but still i unable to forgot her past. she cheated me that time... whenever i thought abt her i felt nervous and its effect on work.. what should i do

Ans: Hello sir. I hope you are in good health.
Talking about your life, i would like to tell you one thing. Whatever your wife did it was before marriage. It was not after marriage . So it cannot be taken as cheating.
Secondly, she accepted and promised that she ll not do it again and she kept her promise.
Thirdly as per you she takes your permission wherever she goes, she informs you everything. All this she is doing just to regain trust. I think you should forget the past.
Holding on to past will bring you nothing. Pain and problems badhengi kam nahi hongi. Apne bacho pe, apni family pe and apne kaam pe dhyan de and apni life enjoy kare.
I hope this solves the problem
Take care!

Relationship

My boyfriend's mom is very possessive. Whenever we are together she finds a reason to interrupt or call him away from me. When we go out, she constantly checks on where he is, what we are doing, and how long we will be together. I feel like there is too much interference. He is 31, I am 27. We are both financially independent. But there is no space for us to build our relationship without his mom being involved in our lives. I understand her concern as a mother, but this level of control makes me feel invisible and sidelined. I'm worried how this will affect our relationship if we continue and take it to the future?

Ans: Hello mam..I hope you are fine. Well, coming to your problem mam. We live in a country where it is considered very normal to interfere in each other's life. Be it siblings or children or for that matter anyone. So as per our society this behaviour is very normal for your boyfriend's mother. But on the other hand, in this era this generation is somewhat more independent and don't like interference. If she is interfering too much, your boyfriend should also feel this and he is the only one who can draw boundaries and can ask his mother to stop being controlling.
You should not directly hit this on your boyfriend. Rather talk to him regarding this in a very polite and convincing manner so that he can take care of the matter. But if he feels that her mother's behaviour is ok then also you need to discuss and convince him about your privacy. If you want to take this relationship further then you need to correct the things beforehand.
I hope this solves your problem.
Take care

Career

Ai field me jane ke liye MHT- CET me kitna score chahiye

Ans: MHT-CET is not compulsory to enter the AI field. You can enter via a B.sc. in Computer. Score at least 180-190 in MHT-CET to get admission to a tier 1 college, either in the Computer or Electronics branch, to fulfil your dreams. But if you are financially sound, you can get admission to any private college with the lowest score also via management quota.

Good luck.

Dear Sir, Kindly provide your feedback on UPES Dehradun for Aerospace engineering

Ans: It is a very good college. Its reputation is quite good, and the placement record is also satisfactory. If you get the chance to study there, you can proceed without hesitation. However, it is highly recommended to visit in person before finalizing the decision at home. Go there, talk with the students, and visit the placement division. The scenario changes year by year. It is always better to see the reality with our own eyes before making the final decision about admission.

Good luck.
