How important is money to you?

It is very important; it gives you power and strength to fulfill your desires.

Are you an impulsive buyer?

Yes, sometimes.

What are the investments you have made?

I have invested in bonds, shares, property, fixed deposits and gold.

What is your most expensive purchase?

My apartment.

Do you feel financially secure?

Who handles your expenses?

Me, my mom and my sisters.

What was your first salary?

Rs 5. I remember I was in school and during Ganpati celebrations I was assigned the task to take control of the crowd.

How much money do you carry every day?

No cash…it’s all cards for me.

Any advice for investors?

One should always invest money for a better future. But be wise and prolific when you invest.
