How to be Financially Free?

I am always conscious about the readership of this blog from day one. I have always wanted to help people to be on their own. And by being on your own, I mean the financial freedom. Financial freedom can only be achieved when your earning is higher than you expenses or your expense is lower than your earning.

True that you should always think about your earnings, but controlling your expenses will also help you to become financially sound.

Controlling your expenses

Controlling your expenses does not mean that you skip your daily meals, do not go to watch your favorite movie or pursue your hobby (if it costs you something).

Controlling your expenses means that you should not waste your money in things which will never make difference to your life. If you are spending too much on a particular thing and not getting something out of it, you are wasting your money and most importantly time.

For Example: You can live without Making unlimited long distance calls. Yes, this add allot to your expense. You can also avoid frequent shopping, movie going, eating out.

Respect quality than quantity

Few people love things in much quantity, this makes them enjoy that things for a longer time, however, things enjoyment for a little longer time does not assure you the best enjoyment. But if you give more importance to quality, you will be able to enjoy it more and can also save a lot of time, which can be converted into a profitable thing. This thing implies on other things also.

For Example: You want quantity and got for 3 pair of shoes, this gives you a variety, but you will not want to wear it after some time as its not branded, on the other side, if you go for Quality and buy only one pair of shoes and that a branded, you will be able to use it for a longer time. This will save some of your money.

Find an extra income source.

There is nothing g written anywhere that if you are into a 9 to 5 kind of job, you have no right to find an extra income stream. You can do that, So, Find a suitable extra income source. This could be anything from painting to babysitting, whichever suited you, and you know it better.

It is not that you cannot control your expenses, a little concern can make it happen, and you too can enjoy your financial freedom.

Better Home Making- Lightning Products.

If you are a Home Maker and you are looking for lightning products, such as bathroom bulbs etc, then you need to take a look at this site. They have got a huge collection of lightning and other home furnishing products.

different categories for different products, makes it easy to take a look at what you want specifically, no waste of time looking at other stuff that you don’t want. chandelier lighting, ceiling lights, bathroom lights, outdoor lights etc. are the main categories to look for. 

and yes, i should add this too, they provide free ground shipping and there is no sales tax excluding NY ( sorry for people who live there).

Kathgodam Trip

I went to Kathogodam last Sunday to receive my Relatives coming from Mumbai, Captured few Images of Nature.

This is when we are heading towards Almora, which is more than 180 kilometers away from where I stay.

 

Standing Tall, the Beautiful trees of Deodar. Which just makes the roads look awesome.

This is the view from our Guest House’s Window, where We ( Me and Dad) Stayed.

And the is the Interiors of the Guest  House.

The Weather at my place was Nice, but we are 300 kilometers away from out home, and it was Hot in Kathogadam, We had to use Air-Con throughout the time we were there.

Wanna Shop? then Shop With Shopcorn!

image I have been doing Online shopping for like 5 years, but when I started out to do so, there were few people like me who did not have the fear of putting their Credit Card Numbers online.

Also, There were only few shopping portals, which means few online buyers had to face the monopolistic behavior. But, Now time is changing or say it has changed. People are not scared to shop online anymore, and you have great deals too.

What I like about Online Shopping!

 

  1. imageI am a lazy ass bones, and I work at night and sleep the whole day, which limits me to go for offline shopping, So, I prefer to do it online, which enables me to shop at any time, day or night.
  2. Sometimes when I go to a mall for shopping, these sales guys (it is ok when there are girls) stand right next to me, staring at me like I am the one who is going to rob their shop. When I am doing it online, I simply can take my time.

What I don’t like about Online Shopping

  1. imageWhile shopping online, I have fell on bad products many times, These sellers are so good at marketing that they can make a bad or say pathetic product, a Hit. If you are doing it offline, you can at least touch the product.
  2. There is no fun actually, I mean, I am not able to discuss about the product I am going to buy, with anyone. When doing it offline, I can discuss it with my friends who are with me. 

But, Its more fun to shop online Now.

image I will never complain about anything if I get the same fun in online shopping.

Here comes ShopCorn, India’s one of its kind Social Shopping Community. Its gives your offline shopping fun in online shopping. you can talk to your friends and discuss about the product you are looking at.

You can even bring in product deals from other shopping portals and put then in Deal Box where other users can discuss it. All of it is done in real time.

You not only get tangible product deals over there, but, also Travel deals, do travel comparison take the best by discussing it with other users. These discussion  things are too good to get a better deal and save you money from being wasted on any useless product.image

I can say this from my Own Experience. I mean I was looking for a better internet wireless connection I can take anywhere, also, which gives me a great speed at the same time (my GPRS internet gives pathetic speed). When I discussed about it on the site, I found that Photon+ USB modem from TATA is going to be the solution of my problem, It gives a speed of up to 3.1Mbps, which is awesome.

By doing that, I met few great likeminded people online, and yes I forgot, you can upload pictures and videos to your profile, create blogs take part in Q&A etc. in their Community Section.

I would recommend this site to everyone who thinks Online shopping is only about buying things.
Enjoy!

Indian Food

There are only few things I like, one of them is Eating,

No Eating Much but Eating a variety of Food. Being a Student, I can’t afford Expensive Restraints and Food from every part of the world. ( maybe I’ll do that when I I’ll be into a nice job or have man on business). Till then, I satisfy my cravings by either cooking at home or enjoying the Roadside food. Which is little unhygienic, unhealthy, but tasty as heaven. Chicken

Here is what we (me and my friends) cooked for a special day, Its called Chicken Chilli.

Enjoying Biryani@ Dhaba (2)

Here we are enjoying Biryani, at a roadside Dhaba. with masala on it.

This not exactly an Indian Cuisine, I think its a Nepali, but it becomes Indian when fried, as Indians like this flavor too, although it has a lot of fat. very tasty when you eat it with chatni.

SDC10290

This again is a non Chinese cuisine, but made Indian by frying it in oil. but i find it tasty. even though it is not the original form of Cowmen.

SDC10319 

Here is the original Nepali Cuisine, Momo.  which is steamed  one. and when it is friend, it becomes Indian. But it is more tasty when it is Steamed like this.
