7 POWERFUL PERSONAL FINANCIAL HACKS that you wish you knew yesterday.

THREAD: Thumb rules that will make you better in managing your personal finance.

Collaborated with @AdityaTodmal

@AdityaTodmal 1. Rule of 72: To estimate when your money will be doubled.

Lets say you are investing in an instrument that gives you 8% p.a.

How long will it take to double your investment:

72 /Rate of interest i.e. 72/8 =9 years.
@AdityaTodmal Conversely, if you come across any plans where they say you'll double your money in 7 years.

Now you can compute the interest rate.

i.e. 72/ 7years = 10.29% p.a.
@AdityaTodmal 2. Rule of 144 : To estimate when your money will be tripled.

114/rate of interest p.a. = No. of years required to triple your money.

Eg: lets say you are getting 12% p.a. in an instrument.

Your money will be tripled in 114/12 = 9.5 years.
@AdityaTodmal 3. Rule of 70: Estimates the impact of inflation on your wealth.

70 / expected long term inflation = No. of years by when your wealth will be worth half of what it is today.

Your total wealth is Rs. 1 cr. & long term inflation rate is 5%.

70/5 = 14 years.
@AdityaTodmal Therefore, real wealth (today) of Rs. 1cr. will be worth Rs. 50lacs after 14 years.
@AdityaTodmal 4. 100 minus your age rule : Asset allocation rule.

Subtract your age from 100 to find out, what % of portfolio allocation should be towards equities.

Eg 1: Age 30
Equity : 70%
Debt : 30%

Eg 2: Age 60
Equity : 40%
Debt : 60%
@AdityaTodmal 5. *3X Emergency Rule:

Set aside a corpus of at least 3x your monthly income for emergencies such as loss of employment, medical emergency, etc.

You can set aside this in liquid funds.
@AdityaTodmal 6. 20X life cover rule:

If you are sole bread winner for the family, and somewhere in the age bracket of 30, life cover should be 20x of your annual package.

Eg: Annual package of Rs.12lacs.

Sum assured: 12 lac *20 = 2.4crs. prems would be ~20k.
@AdityaTodmal 7. 50-20-20-10 Rule -

Divide your income into:
50℅ - Basic Needs - Groceries, rent, EMIs if any
20℅ - Wants - Vacations, Hobbies
20℅ - Investments - Equity, MFs, Debt, FD, etc
10% - Upgrading Skill sets
Atleast aim to save 20℅ of your income, more the merrier.
@AdityaTodmal These are basic guidelines one can follow to manage their personal finances.

Following these wont take you anywhere in the short run, the magic happens in the long run due to compounding.

Following @BAUDEGS I have experienced hateful and propagandist tweets time after time. I have been shocked that an academic community would be so reckless with their publications. So I did some research.
The question is:
Is this an official account for Bahcesehir Uni (Bau)?


Bahcesehir Uni, BAU has an official website

BAU’s official Twitter account


BAU has many departments, which all have separate accounts. Nowhere among them did I find @BAUDEGS

🌿𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒚 𝒐𝒇 𝒂 𝑺𝒕𝒂𝒓 : 𝑫𝒉𝒓𝒖𝒗𝒂 & 𝑽𝒊𝒔𝒉𝒏𝒖

Once upon a time there was a Raja named Uttānapāda born of Svayambhuva Manu,1st man on earth.He had 2 beautiful wives - Suniti & Suruchi & two sons were born of them Dhruva & Uttama respectively.
#talesofkrishna https://t.co/E85MTPkF9W


Now Suniti was the daughter of a tribal chief while Suruchi was the daughter of a rich king. Hence Suruchi was always favored the most by Raja while Suniti was ignored. But while Suniti was gentle & kind hearted by nature Suruchi was venomous inside.
#KrishnaLeela


The story is of a time when ideally the eldest son of the king becomes the heir to the throne. Hence the sinhasan of the Raja belonged to Dhruva.This is why Suruchi who was the 2nd wife nourished poison in her heart for Dhruva as she knew her son will never get the throne.


One day when Dhruva was just 5 years old he went on to sit on his father's lap. Suruchi, the jealous queen, got enraged and shoved him away from Raja as she never wanted Raja to shower Dhruva with his fatherly affection.


Dhruva protested questioning his step mother "why can't i sit on my own father's lap?" A furious Suruchi berated him saying "only God can allow him that privilege. Go ask him"
हिमालय पर्वत की एक बड़ी पवित्र गुफा थी।उस गुफा के निकट ही गंगा जी बहती थी।एक बार देवर्षि नारद विचरण करते हुए वहां आ पहुंचे।वह परम पवित्र गुफा नारद जी को अत्यंत सुहावनी लगी।वहां का मनोरम प्राकृतिक दृश्य,पर्वत,नदी और वन देख उनके हृदय में श्रीहरि विष्णु की भक्ति अत्यंत बलवती हो उठी।


और देवर्षि नारद वहीं बैठकर तपस्या में लीन हो गए।इन्द्र नारद की तपस्या से घबरा गए।उन्हें हमेशा की तरह अपना सिंहासन व स्वर्ग खोने का डर सताने लगा।इसलिए इन्द्र ने नारद की तपस्या भंग करने के लिए कामदेव को उनके पास भेज दिया।वहां पहुंच कामदेव ने अपनी माया से वसंतऋतु को उत्पन्न कर दिया।


पेड़ और पौधों पर रंग बिरंगे फूल खिल गए और कोयलें कूकने लगी,पक्षी चहकने लगे।शीतल,मंद,सुगंधित और सुहावनी हवा चलने लगी।रंभा आदि अप्सराएं नाचने लगीं ।किन्तु कामदेव की किसी भी माया का नारद पे कोई प्रभाव नहीं पड़ा।तब कामदेव को डर सताने लगा कि कहीं नारद क्रोध में आकर मुझे श्राप न देदें।

जैसे ही नारद ने अपनी आंखें खोली, उसी क्षण कामदेव ने उनसे क्षमा मांगी।नारद मुनि को तनिक भी क्रोध नहीं आया और उन्होने शीघ्र ही कामदेव को क्षमा कर दिया।कामदेव प्रसन्न होकर वहां से चले गए।कामदेव के चले जाने पर देवर्षि के मन में अहंकार आ गया कि मैने कामदेव को हरा दिया।

नारद फिर कैलाश जा पहुंचे और शिवजी को अपनी विजयगाथा सुनाई।शिव समझ गए कि नारद अहंकारी हो गए हैं और अगर ये बात विष्णु जी जान गए तो नारद के लिए अच्छा नहीं होगा।ये सोचकर शिवजी ने नारद को भगवन विष्णु को ये बात बताने के लीए मना किया। परंतु नारद जी को ये बात उचित नहीं लगी।
