1) Rule of 72

No.of yrs required to double your money at a given rate,U just divide 72 by interest rate
Eg,if you want to know how long it will take to double your money at 8% interest,divide 72 by 8 and get 9 yrs

At 6% rate,it will take 12 yrs
At 9% rate,it will take 8 yrs
2) Rule of 70

Divide 70 by current inflation rate to know how fast the value of your investment will get reduced to half its present value.

Inflation rate of 7% will reduce the value of your money to half in 10 years.
3)4% Rule for FinancialFreedom

Corpus Required=25tms of your Estd Annual Exp.

Eg-if your An exp after 50yrs age is 5L and you wish to retire corpus req is 1.25crs.

Put 50% in Debt & 50% in equity.

Withdraw 4% every year,i.e.5L

This rule works for 96% of time in 30 yrs period
4) 100 minus your age rule

This rule is used for asset allocation.Subtract your age from 100 to find out,how much of your portfolio should be allocated to equities

Suppose your Age is 30 so (100-30=70)

Equity:70%
Debt:30%

But if your Age is 60 so (100-60= 40)

Eq 40% & D 60%
5) 12-5-3 Rule

At least try to save 20℅ of your income. You can definitely save more.
7) 3X Emergency Rule

Always put atleast 3 times your monthly income in Emergency funds for emergencies such as Loss of employment, medical emergency, etc.

3 X Monthly Income

In fact, one can have around 6 X Monthly Income in liquid or near liquid assets to be on a safer side.
8). 40℅ EMI Rule

Never go beyond 40℅ of your income into EMIs.

Say if you earn, ₹ 50,000 per month. Then you should not have EMIs more than ₹ 20,000 .

I just finished Eric Adler's The Battle of the Classics, and wanted to say something about Joel Christiansen's review linked below. I am not sure what motivates the review (I speculate a bit below), but it gives a very misleading impression of the book. 1/x


The meat of the criticism is that the history Adler gives is insufficiently critical. Adler describes a few figures who had a great influence on how the modern US university was formed. It's certainly critical: it focuses on the social Darwinism of these figures. 2/x

Other insinuations and suggestions in the review seem wildly off the mark, distorted, or inappropriate-- for example, that the book is clickbaity (it is scholarly) or conservative (hardly) or connected to the events at the Capitol (give me a break). 3/x

The core question: in what sense is classics inherently racist? Classics is old. On Adler's account, it begins in ancient Rome and is revived in the Renaissance. Slavery (Christiansen's primary concern) is also very old. Let's say classics is an education for slaveowners. 4/x

It's worth remembering that literacy itself is elite throughout most of this history. Literacy is, then, also the education of slaveowners. We can honor oral and musical traditions without denying that literacy is, generally, good. 5/x
