What you seek (or don’t) is seeking you – Our tryst with impulse buying

The coolest thing that happened in this hot Summer is the Backstreet Boys Concert at Jio Garden in Mumbai. Until the day of the concert, I wasn’t aware there was a concert in my city. Some would say I live under the stone, but actually I’ve just been off social media. I was having a conversation with a friend and she brought it up.

A Life Insurance Endowment plan brings you the best of both worlds. Or does it?

I love interacting with my students. Their imagination has no bounds. I’ve grown up believing, ‘you can’t have the cake and eat it too’. But, my students think otherwise.
