“Mathematics may be defined as the subject in which we never know what we are talking about, nor whether what we are saying is true.” - Bertrand Russell Mathematics is really a very interesting subject. Many fears from it, but whenever you get the logic behind it, you simply love it. Mathematics is one of my favorite subjects. I have found some very interesting patterns, which are very interesting and not less than any magic.

                  Many of my blog readers have asked me about the investments, how should they allocate or invest their money? I am still a student and learning all these but I am trying my level best to answer this question. As I always say that investments and savings are very essential and everyone should practice it. Here the main question is “How much to invest/save and where to invest/save?” In my opinion there are 3 types of person in this world- Spend more than they earn Spend all their income and save if there is any balance . Save first then spend the rest                   Type 1 and type 2 belong to unsystematic type of people and most of the time only live by today freely. These types of people should set up a systematic saving program no matter how small the amount might be. Start from a very little saving like Rs. 1 a day in the piggy bank. Whenever you start to feel the habit of saving and getting use to it, increase the amount to Rs. 2 a day or even Rs. 100 a month or

               Being a finance management student I always emphasis on saving and investment for th e future. Every body should learn how to save and invest money in a profitable way. I am learning it now but I think I would have learned it in my childhood. Now I am a strong believer that every child should know about saving and every parent should teach saving techniques to their child. If children will know the benefits of saving then they will start it in their early ages, which will be a great help in the future time. In my opinion the preteen years are a golden time to teach kids about saving for the future. They already know the value of money, having learned basic money concepts in school.                Following are some tips on how to teach kids about savings and investments – Explain to them that there are three things they can do with money: a. Spend b. Let it be in their wallets c. Save and let it grow.                  Now tell them that - It's good to spend for one

Recently a newspaper reported that a senior citizen sold his flat and deposited Rs27 lakh in a bank account held jointly by him and his son. Within a week, the son had withdrawn the entire amount without the father’s knowledge. When the father came to know about the withdrawal he was completely broken. This is not a single case. Now-a-days it has become a trend. Many a time we can get these types of news in the newspaper or from some other media. Some time it happenss with old father, sometime with old mother and sometime with any other old member of family. Why it happens? It is a big question. But just try to get the answer. There can be many reasons but I think lack of education and experience is the biggest reason behind it. A great percentage of our senior citizen population is illiterate. They can’t read the bank forms and other important documents. So it is very easy to get cheated by someone who is very close and know the processes. I think in the present time society need to

Some times ago I was reading a story, which I am sharing here with all of you. After you read this story count how many times could this have happened to you and if you have altered those aspects of your life that made you miss the opportunity. Here is the story - The Touchstone When the great library of Alexandria burned, the story goes, one book was saved. But it was not a valuable book; and so a poor man, who could read a little, bought it for a few coppers. The book wasn't very interesting, but between its pages there was something very interesting indeed. It was a thin strip of vellum on which was written the secret of the "Touchstone"! The Touchstone was a small pebble that could turn any common metal into pure gold. The writing explained that it was lying among thousands and thousands of other pebbles that looked exactly like it. But the secret was this: The real stone would feel warm, while ordinary pebbles are cold. So the man sold his few belongings, bought some

                  Some days ago I was chatting with my friend who lives in USA. We were discussing on the education system. I got to know lots of things about the US education system. When I compared the US education system with our Indian education system, then I realized that there are huge deficiencies in our education system.                   Let me share the US education system with all of you, which I got to know fro m my friend. In the US, the core curriculum consist of the English language and literature, one foreign language, mathematics, one social science subject and one elective subject in a year. They have wide options for choosing the elective subject ranging from world history to accountancy to computer programming. The US education system more emphasis on project works where students work in a group and present the group work in classroom. Not more than one science subject is offered in an academic year.
