Personal Finance for Starters [Video]
There are many newcomers in Personal Finance who have no idea of very basic things . So I thought of doing a video presentation covering topics like Section 80C , HRA , HRA Example , LTA and Medical Exemptions , Tax Calculations , Tax Slab and example , Power of Investing Early , Understanding Equity and Debt , Investments Options , What is Insurance , Insurance Options , 4 most important things in Personal Finance . Lets see how everyone likes it . I would love to hear your views and suggestions so that I can create much better video tutorials in future .
Personal Finance Presentation Video
Here is the presentation
Comments please , can you give suggestions on what topics can I cover in video presentations and how can I improve upon it ? Did you like it ?
Hi Manish,
Thanks for the wonderful information in such a small ppt.
I am 27 and havn’t invested money anywhere yet. But now i am ready to invest. But i am wondering for right options.
Need a mentor for financial guidance !!!!!!
Abhay

Hi Manish good work /Can you please refer one textbook which deals with Indian tax system regarding personal finance.
I meant to say how can I save the income if i am doing business or job.how can I actually save maximum and how much minimum I have to pay.
Thanks

Hi Manish,
I have started reading your blog a few days back. I really appreciate the way you try to explain complex problems in a simle and imlementable manner. I really need one help from you. In many of your articles you have emphasized the need of a paid financial planning consultant. Can you pls come u with name of some real good planners / organisations. That may be helpful for all readers.
Thanks
Chandra
Its tough to name , because they are rare . You should first try to learn things on your own and then try to find FP by reference .

Hi Manish,
This video covers almost everything to be known for a beginner investor who has started to earn but has no idea of investing. Keep up the great work.
I suggest you to create similar videos on how to handle one’s investment assets based on a person’s different stages of life and their responsibilities. I know each person will have different goals in life. But may be you can create some scenarios which would make good sense for a typical indian investor who is getting to know about share market, equity, debt and other kinds of assets.

Good point , will keep in mind 🙂
Manish
Appreciate your effort. Keep it up 🙂

Hey , no you dont have to feel like that . We all make mistakes in life, starting late is not good, however realising that you should not be doing the investments property itself is an achievement and you are ahead of millions .
Hi manish,
Its a very nice post.
From past few days am reading your old postings. All are very nicely explained by you. I hv started implementing such kind of advice. I regestered for fundsindia .com in last week.
I hv one request if you prepare e-book of all your postings then it will be easy for readers to read it when they have time. Not necessary to be online for the same purpose.
I hope you will make it possible.
My best wishesh to you

Hi Manish
My wife earns Rental income around Rs.10800 pa from the property which she received through Gift deed from her father.
My question is
1) Does she need pan card and
2) need to submit Income tax returns for this incoming?
Please let me know
Thanks & Regards
Chandra
Chandra
– Pan card is no way related to this , if she wants she can get it .
– She does not need to submit Income tax , as the yearly taxable income is not within the limits .

thanks a lot , do you think more of these videos will be helpful ?
Manish
manish,
i really think that the video posts are better. the human mind has a better picture memory tha the textual memory. anything which u communicate by pictures and figures is generally understood well and remebered for a longer time. so keep up the show and do more of video posts. u’ll become still more famous.

this website is of great help for people like me who are new to financial matters but want to learn the tricks off investing.
I have a question ” apart from a separate saving-account for saving for the emergency funds (which provide little interest, is there any scheme or fund through which I can get more interest and can also withdraw the sum whnever any emergency need arises”.
Manika
Thats not recommended . Its always better to have your emergency needs in safest and most liquid place , you should not at all look at the returns over this money , however you can open sweep in account which acts as savings + FD . read more on it .

Hello Manish,
Thanks a lot for posting such a great video . I would be happy if you could elobarate on Insurance content like, should one go for return of premium options so that one could get part of the amount invested after the maturity (say after 30 years ) ? Because I feel surviving in this world is a great challenge wrt to finance .
Please suggest and advice .
Regards,
