A thread - Does timing your SIPs work?
— Niranjan Avasthi (@avasthiniranjan) November 22, 2020
They work best when you don't try to time and fiddle with them.

Stopped SIP in March
Did this work?
No: 2.93 lk vs 1.93 lk

A thread on 7 simple personal finance rules.
— Niranjan Avasthi (@avasthiniranjan) May 10, 2021
1. Don\u2019t bother to track every penny you spend. You'll lose focus on the big picture.
Instead, focus saving big on those big ticket items. Cut down on large, recurring purchases and then later, if necessary, focus on penny items.

Viruses and other pathogens are often studied as stand-alone entities, despite that, in nature, they mostly live in multispecies associations called biofilms—both externally and within the host.

Microorganisms in biofilms are enclosed by an extracellular matrix that confers protection and improves survival. Previous studies have shown that viruses can secondarily colonize preexisting biofilms, and viral biofilms have also been described.
...we raise the perspective that CoVs can persistently infect bats due to their association with biofilm structures. This phenomenon potentially provides an optimal environment for nonpathogenic & well-adapted viruses to interact with the host, as well as for viral recombination.
Biofilms can also enhance virion viability in extracellular environments, such as on fomites and in aquatic sediments, allowing viral persistence and dissemination.
