    Whom are you going to vote in India in 2013-14 elections?

    Politics is always about choosing the lesser of the evils. I guess Modi as PM is the least evil option our country has. He has a vision, unlike the congress which has no ideology except the Gandhi family and the sub families like scindia, Jindal etc.

    CFA : Should I do or not ?

    Maybe you should take a look at the CFA books to help you analyse better. Nothing beats work experience, but if you're ambitious and want to go abroad ahead in a few years, an international certification surely helps. And the CFA is a tough exam to crack. As for the roles you mentioned you're...

    CFA : Should I do or not ?

    Firstly, let me take a bit of liberty with the topic here. What's your area of interest post MBA for a job? What kind of companies do you expect at campus. Not all recruiters will value the CFA on the resume. And if you've got to do the ncfm modules, some topics are deep and tough - option...

    CFA : Should I do or not ?

    I've done two levels, flunked level 3. It's good if you're going to be in a related field like equity research, wealth management or portfolio management. Do not consider it as a primary degree, its a top up. A more detailed study of finance. I'll update this post at night, going to office...

    Rate the Last Movie You Saw...

    Saw two movies today - Lincoln and Kill Bill 2.. both were good. After watching Lincoln, I felt this movie rightly won an Oscar. My last two Oscar nominated watches Argo and Zero Dark Thirty were crap and jingoistic.

    Timtara.com CEO, Founder arrested for fraud

    It's an unholy alliance. It's not that the media doesn't know what's happening or it doesn't know good lawyers. The problem is news media in India is a loss making industry. So under the table deals and the nature of deals like "advertise with us or we shall expose you" are common.

    Looking to buy a multi - purpose speaker set for about 10-13k

    Just dug a bit more, the review for M10 seem outstanding but the negative is that the woofer & subs need to be placed on the same level :( They are virtually ruled out. How would the D1080MKII be in their place? Look good, are more powerful and at 20% off from the listed price at ~9000 on...

    Can a government levy charge on bank account without your approval?

    The potential misuses of adhaar are too many. They surely will crop up in a few years

    10-15K best budget android phone

    Girls generally keep their phones in their purses :P. But the chin is minor, nothing major. Processor is slow, but enough for most tasks and RAM is a bit frugal don't expect to play temple run with it, but for most other apps its fine. FFC is subjective. I generally found the battery to be...

    The one V looks beautiful. Unusual color so it stands out too and nice screen too.

    Can a government levy charge on bank account without your approval?

    Very unlikely, since Germans are not liking the bailout and Merkels ratings are down. Angela Merkel may be criticised for her role but I think she's adopting the best course of action in the given time and space. She can't appear too dominant and make Germany look like an economic Nazi, however...

    Can a government levy charge on bank account without your approval?

    This whole system of DBT is such a mess. I work with SBI in Ratnagiri and we literally have been drowned in the sea of account forms. It is so unproductive and inconvenient for old villagers living far off to come and collect benefits. Many of them don't even have a mobile phone, so we can't...

    10-15K best budget android phone

    Having used the One V for 6 months, not keen to recommend it. The photos are grainy when you zoom in. A Sony would be better for camera. But if its at 13 k, its a hood deal. The screen is nice , and unlike the xperia U, its bigger and wider so typing is good.
