I am happy to share with you that today this small initiative of spreading financial planning awareness celebrating its journey of two years. When I look back 11th Dec 2011 to today, I am amazed the way you all supported me in this journey.
I may claim previous year as a technological advance year for my blog. Because I moved this blog from free WordPress theme to paid Genesis framework platform, which ranks top among the available platforms. I felt this investment as a genuine and worth. At the same I got the Google Adsense approval to display advertisements on this platform after a long review about quality and content. This way I started earning some revenue from this blog.
I am thankful to all who continuously monitored my posts and comments and supported me. Few supportive, educational and eye opener for me and few harsh. But I welcome all comments and opinions as if I am learner but not an expert.
Below is the list of my selective posts of the last one year which I feel worth to read.

hi Basavaraj Tonagatti,
i want to know whether SBI Flexi Deposit better to invest or recurring deposit is better to invest?
Sudheer-It depends on your need. If you have a lump sum then go for FDs otherwise RDs. So it is your decision and comfort.
hi Basavaraj Tonagatti,
i want to know SBI Flexi Deposit is market linked or taditional.
Sudheer-It is not market linked. You can treat this product as FD. For detailed view you can visit HERE.
Hello Basavaraj,
I’m having LIC Jeevan Anand policy table # 149. i started paying Rs.20,000 per quarter from 28th Sept 2011 as premium under 13 Policies each has its own sum assured amount (Total SA is 15L for all policies) and first policy last payment date is 28/06/2027 and 13th policy last payment date is 28/06/2039.
when i took this policy that agent told me you’ll get approx 25L after 16 yrs i.e. at 2027. but when I saw my LIC bonds its having 13 policies having different dates and diff. SA.
Could you please let me know how much amount i’ll get after 16 yrs and suggest me am i taken correct decision about this plan ?
Thanks in advance…
Ashok-Please let me know the term, start date and the Sum Assured of each plan. If you don’t want to share this information on this public platform then you can mail me personally to my mail [email protected]. Then I will let you know how much you can expect from these plans. Yes you made a wrong decision. But it does not mean that there is no way to come out. So we discuss and chart out a plan.
congratulations
