My cousin had to rush back to India, taking a 2-week leave from his engineering job in Houston, Texas.

Why? Because he forgot to register one of his family members living in India as the Power of Attorney.

During an important family property dispute, the government required him to be present physically.

The fact is, this is not something new or strange.

There are lakhs of Indians who have to travel back to India, leaving their jobs and studies abroad, due to legal and regulatory requirements, especially when it comes to managing finances as an NRI. 

But here's the deal: you can save yourself from this stressful inconvenience if you are proactive. 

Here is a list of 5 things you must be cautious of while leaving India for a job or studies.

A single bad hire can cost companies up to $250,000 in recruitment, training, and lost productivity.

and...when you multiply it by multiple wrong hires, you end up losing millions in hidden costs and just trial and error.

Hiring great talent and retaining them is the ultimate factor that separates million-dollar success stories from startup graveyards.

Statistically, 89% of hiring decisions fail within 12 months. 

This is often because founders fall into the trap of generic advice like:

- Look for passion 
- Check references 
- Hire for the culture fit
- Ask behavioural questions 
- Give weightage to top-rated college students

While generic advice costs you, great advice saves and pays you.

Yes, you could save thousands of dollars and months of precious time, by incorporating the iconic hiring strategies of top leaders in your business.

I've compiled a 1567-word article breaking down the hiring methodology of 5 billion-dollar businesses. 

Take a look: https://lnkd.in/gEXjnfQu

Cheers to making thousands of dollars and saving months of precious time!

P.S. Have a great week ✨

PM Modi's diwali gift isn't gold but something that can make 140+ crore Indians happy!

I mean...

It's the biggest GST overhaul in 8 years.

- 4 slabs → 2 slabs 
- Hours of paperwork → Pre-filled returns
- Endless disputes → Simplified compliance

Not just cheaper mobiles and household items, but it's a win for:

- 68 million MSMEs drowning in compliance 
- Farmers getting cheaper machinery
- Patients buying medical devices

These proposed changes aren't just a tax reform but a signal for social re-engineering.

How? here 3 things you can't miss:

1) Easy Compliance

- Pre-filled returns (no more late nights with Excel sheets) 

- Automated refunds(less cash stress) 

- Two-slabs (less confusion)

2) Middle Class Spending Boom

When a middle-class family saves rs. 500/month on essentials, where does that money go?

- Better food (restaurants win)
- More shopping (retail wins)
- Kids' education (EdTech wins)
- Digital services (SaaS wins)

more consumption = more jobs = more taxpayers

3) 40% GST on luxury & sin goods

- Tobacco products (cigarettes, chewing tobacco, beer etc.)

- Online gaming and other demerit categories

- Select luxury vehicles (high-end cars)

It's social signaling!

Govt will fund development through luxury consumption not essentials.

The rollout is expected by Diwali 2025, impacting everything from household products and mobiles to cars and tobacco.

Making everyday life cheaper for most Indians, simplifying the tax system, and imposing much steeper taxes on luxury/sin goods. 

So, what are your views about this upcoming reform?

As my income increased by 35% in 2024, my friend pushed me to invest the excess in mutual funds, but instead, my SIPs decreased.

Because I began buying expensive dresses, spending more on daily takeout, or simply spending more on things because they were aesthetic!

It took me a while to understand that increased income does not necessarily lead to increased investing and wealth creation.
 
While finance influencers are busy giving SIPs, stocks, and other investment tips.

you can't really invest what you don't save.

In the past 3 months, I have saved Rs.15000 to Rs.18000 in addition to my usual savings without reducing my expenditure on essentials or altering my lifestyle.

Here are my 5 practical savings tips/hacks that helped me save without compromise:


1/ The 24-Hour Amazon Cart Rule:

Add items to cart, and wait 24 hours before buying. I avoided Rs. 5,200 in impulse purchases last month alone. 

That Bluetooth speaker I "desperately wanted"? still in my cart, still don't need it.


2/ Subscription / Digital Tools Audit Month:

Every month, on the last weekend, I review all of my subscriptions, whether they are for personal entertainment, social media, or business purposes.

I discovered I was paying for Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Spotify family - while using only Netflix. saved Rs.1,299/month instantly.

Also, I discovered free and better AI alternatives for various tools and subscriptions that I use for my business. I immediately unsubscribed and switched to the free versions of new AI tools. 



3/ Automating savings after payday:

I automated my recurring deposits and SIPs of at least Rs. 5k that move out of the main account within 2 days of account credit.

This prevented unplanned leakages.



4/ Bulk shopping during sales/huge discounts:

I shop for skincare, makeup, and other beauty and fashion items either during festivals or major offers or birthday sales running on the websites.

Whenever possible, I purchase non-perishable food items or household items like cleaners and shampoos in bulk or gifts during off-season sales and store them properly. 



5/ Sell/Recycle the old before buying the new:

I stopped accumulating junk and started the 'sell-first, buy-second' rule. 

Before purchasing any electronics or furniture, I sell the old one on OLX, specific resell websites, or local vendors. 

Last month, I sold my 3-year-old phone for Rs. 8,000 before buying a new one - instantly reducing my upgrade expense by 20%.


These 5 changes proved to be game changers for my investments.

And i am sure following these tips will benefit you if you develop a proper system and mindset.

Nothing ruins your mental peace and bank balance like an unexpected TAX notice.

It’s about navigating the complex web of financial obligations and requirements that, if left ignored, will turn your dream journey into a bureaucratic nightmare.

Money wasn't discussed at my dinner table growing up.

I spent years thinking I am uniquely terrible with finances—turns out, we're ALL figuring it out together. 

We just don't talk about it openly.

Time to change that conversation.

I am curating Money Minutes - a newsletter that is about saving, investing, spending, and basically all things making money less frightening for adults who want to get their money right without the finance bro attitude!

The first issue is live now!

Getting lost in the race for likes and views is easy!

But the reality is: more likes and views don't necessarily mean more money. 

Chasing virality was the biggest mistake I made in 2023.

- Tracking vanity metrics (DMs, likes and views).

- Wasting hours on pointless spreadsheets crammed with meaningless numbers.

- Associating the quality of content with the followers it brought.

And my bank balance was still $0.

In 2024, I changed my approach and achieved faster and better results.

Instead of tracking likes and views, I began:

📌Identifying 3–5 critical KPIs that align directly with the goals.

Example:

Want to increase sales -> focus on conversion rates, not website traffic

Want to grow newsletter -> measure engagement i.e. open rate, likes & shares, not just subscribers count.

📌Building simple dashboards using Excel or just used built-in tools like Instagram insights or LinkedIn analytics.

- Prioritised the most important metrics for short-term wins: followers, revenue, and email subscribers.

- Tracked metrics and crafted content strategy accordingly (e.g., lead generating content for clients, funnels for conversions, trendy content for virality).

(Pro Tip: Make the sheets visually appealing for your team & clients to actually use them.)

📌Review and adjust strategies regularly.

Tracking every metric under the sun is not worth it!

(Pro Tip: Not just your content but your profile headline, banner and CTA must reflect the primary action you want your audience to take).

It's high time to start aligning your analytics with actual business goals.

So, what's the ONE metric you focus on or plan to focus on to drive success in your business?

There's a difference between using AI to get the job done and using AI to get the job done WELL.

One is modern-day sin. One is modern-day mastery.

The first celebrates mediocrity. The second strives for excellence.

"What camp are you in?" defines your expertise.

I just discovered the naughty secret that separates online millionaires from everyone else.

For the last 5 years, I've watched the internet evolve. 

I've seen ordinary people build empires through their content creation, while others with massive followings struggle to pay rent.

The difference isn't talent. 

It's not luck either.

It's this: They sell transformations/results, not just information.

The info era is DEAD.

There was a time when people sold ebooks for $10 or online courses for $200, but that market has collapsed. 

AI is changing everything. Since 2022, the internet has been filled with AI-generated content sludge. 

Because people are drowning in desired, specific, and altered information with a single click (thanks to chatgpt, perplexity, and other AI tools) yet still lacking in results and content that is undeniably human.

The people getting rich now understand something profound:

Modern consumers don't want more knowledge, but they want transformations.

They'll pay $5,000 for a result but won't pay $50 for information.

This shift is creating a massive opportunity for ordinary people with extraordinary skills to build cash-rich businesses.

You don't need to be famous. You just need to be extremely useful.

So, can you deliver a transformation that people would pay a premium for?

Your content lacks personality because you're sharing the conclusion, not the journey.

Start sharing:

The initial failures and lessons learned.

The middle, moment of realisation.

Execution and solution at the end.

The magic isn't in WHAT you got.

It's how you got there.

That conversation. That stranger. That random realization.

The origin story IS the personality.

P.S. Happy 79th independence day 🇮🇳

Stumbled upon an Indian d2c founder’s post today. 

Over 1300 likes. Perfectly formatted.

But...

Everything he "wrote" contradicted what he said on a YouTube podcast.

I'm wondering if this is the fault of the ghostwriter or a broken process.

Today, content creation is an easy job, but making money from it is where 97% of creators struggle. 

With AI tools like ChatGPT, creating viral content is just a click away. 

Everybody wants to be a creator now, and with a single prompt, you can generate millions of views, likes, and followers. 

But what's next? 

Your inbox remains empty, DMs are silent, and your bank balance is stuck. 

Your audience isn't convinced that your offering is worth their money or solves their problem.

The reality is that founders and creators often struggle to monetize effectively, earning far less than expected, even with viral content.

This is because they fail to craft conversion-focused content that resonates with their audience and drives engagement. 

The solution is diving deeper and creating authentic content that understands buyers' emotions, feelings, and thought processes. 

You need to know how your audience perceives content and make it reader-friendly. 

Alter your content strategies and one way you can make your content stand out is through mastery over the craft.

- induce emotions
- infuse personality
- share raw experiences
- leave space for perspective 
- experiment with spontaneity

In a world of templated emails, your content should sound like a handwritten letter – personal, expressive, and filled with personality. 

You can't ignore AI in the industry; instead, learn to leverage it to aid your processes and maximize output. 

What do you think?

P.S. Want to get more clients with conversion focused linkedIn content. DM me or book an intro call now (link in the comments!)

Adulting tip: Never plan for money that hasn’t hit your bank account yet.

Gentle Reminder:

Do not post daily just for the sake of it.

It's okay to not post every day.

Your content's goal must be memorability, not simply visibility.

Because mediocre content destroys reputation more quickly than silence ever could.

Your schedule can recover.

Your reputation, however, cannot.

P.S. Have a great week!
