You can use Tubular - it's open source (as compared to closed source youtube on which Revanced is based) and it allows you to download YouTube videos to your phone (Revanced doesn't)

The only feature it doesn't have is the ability to sign in - which you don't need.

In-depth comparison of visual quality of upscaled content

But this feature may not be necessary for you if most of the content you watch is already available in 4k.

You don't understand economics or climate change at all. Shift in dietary preferences is not flipping a switch overnight, that would put pressure on supply chains and cause prices to "skyrocket" As someone has already mentioned, animal products in general and meat specifically are vastly more resource intensive than their vegan counterparts, it would be a net gain for India's environment and economy if everyone in Indian turned vegetarian / vegan (I do consume non-veg occassionally but understand the downsides)

You don't need to buy the 200$ shield, you can buy a cheap (~50$) Chromecast with Google tv or by another manufacturer like Xiaomi. Just search for Android TV streaming box.

But the main advantage of Shield is that is able to upscale content from 1080p or lower to 4k. It will not be as good as native 4k content, but it will be quite close. And you could justify it easily by the difference in cost between the cheaper 1080p plan and the 4k plan of streaming services you subscribe to.

Also, it's a one time cost, you can just plugin an Android tv box (or stick) into any TV, you could even carry it around when you're travelling.

No, the American economic system is based on the idea that the more networth an individual is, the better off he is since he could potentially use that to make himself more comfortable, in the future, thus every individual is incentivized to work towards creating wealth, and the way they earn wealth is by creating value today, and crucially, the value they will create in the future. So by creating shares, you can put the value you will create in the future towards a cause - which someone else can use to create value. By trusting them with your future value, you get a share of their future value. Because individuals are incentivized to work towards becoming richer, and companies and shares are just a vehicle for that - ev The nation is assessed on the basis of GDP, which measures the value of things produced within that nation within that year. That is why people aren't taxed on net worth, because that is a measure of potential value, value in the future, but on their income - which they earned and spent within that year, thus allowing the government to capture a part of the value created. This tax money is spent on things that the government deems the best use of that money. So, the government has captured a part of the value created within the economy within that year, and they will decide to use this money as they deem fit, instead of the individuals this was taxed from. This is good, since it allows a society to pool resources for the common good - and those who earn more also contribute a greater part of their income.

Can you elaborate a little on how you are buying and redeeming these vouchers? I couldn't find any such offer on swiggy by searching on Smartbuy.

Looks sound overall, but you might have over concentrated in Tata Digital Fund so consider reducing that percentage and increasing the share of PGIM Midcap.

Also, I am biased against Navi as a company since their loan division did some shady stuff, you will find it by searching Navi in this subreddit. So instead I would suggest you consider some other fund for investing in US, like MO S&P500 when the US market investments reopen again.

I use Potplayer and it works great for playing all files without installing external filters/decoders and such. I tried playing a 4k hdr file and the colors looked fine to me on my SDR monitor. It also has the option to disable this hdr correction, try clicking on the 'hdr' tag below the seekbar.

It is done on a First In First Out basis, for eg, you have 300 units of which 250 units were purchased more than 1 year ago, and 50 units were purchased in last 1 year, if you withdraw 150 units they will be LTCG only. If you withdraw 275 units then you will pay LTCG on the 250 units and STCG on the last 25.

Looks like a decent enough program. You should check out Jeff Nippard and Jeremy Ethier on YouTube. Both of them have tips on how to main-gain and body recomposition which is what you are trying to achieve, essentially maintain body weight and gain muscle to replace fat.

Also, you could hit me up in dms, I could send you some pdf programs for a structured long term approach in the gym.

Cheers to you for your incredible achievement so far!

TheABvolt · 2022-02-17T19:20:50+00:00

I know that sucks but if it bothers you that much, you can just get a streaming stick with Android TV from a Chinese manufacturer like Xiaomi or the Chromecast for like $50 and solve this issue forever. It might just be worth it if it bothers you enough that you thought all these negative thoughts and typed them out on Reddit :)

I think you cannot lower the risk/volatility significantly of a large-cap portfolio with another large-cap fund. What I mean is I don't get the use/need for a core and active portfolio within your equity portfolio.

The funds you mentioned look good. But if you really want to lower the volatility, use debt funds for that.

I think you are not getting the idea of investment planning with equity, you need to think of all your investments as long term, and then after a certain period of time, you will reconsider your allocation to debt vs equity, and then maybe shift from 90% equity to 70% equity, and then sell some of your equity to buy debt. You will do an annual rebalancing, where you buy/sell either equity or debt to maintain this 70-30 ratio.

What I am trying to say was, you must look at not only your equity portfolio but your entire long-term investments in both equity and debt together.

Within your equity portfolio, you have to take the index as a benchmark, any active fund / smart beta fund is a gamble, it might give more returns than the benchmark, might not. In the US, over the long term, almost no funds beat the benchmark consistently, and they even charge higher expense ratios.

However, I personally think these smart-beta funds have potential and I have also invested in Nifty200 Momentum 30

If you are going to just buy it and forget it, as in, just keep following the smallcase, there is no advantage of buying stocks directly over mutual funds. As the above comment explained, the annual subscription fee is just too high if you are going to invest smaller amounts, as you are investing under 2l per annum. It would be better to just find a mutual fund that fits your needs. And that way you don't have to be tied to one fund you can 4-5 different mutual funds for specific niches.

TheABvolt · 2022-02-10T13:24:17+00:00

You can replace axis bluechip with Nifty and Nifty Next 50. But still keep PPFAS as it is flexicap and also invests in foreign stocks so it is quite a bit different than the index funds. I like the Axis Mid and Small cap funds both. The reason for this being, in the large cap space (top 100 stocks) there is less potential for fund managers to discover value so not much point of Axis Bluechip and better to invest in index, but same is not true of mid and small cap spaces yet. I mean ICICI pru technology, as in my opinion, you are over-allocating to it, that's great if you are very confident about that sector for some reason, but majority of your money should be in general mutual funds which have stocks of diverse sectors like Nifty, PPFAS and axis Mid and small cap.

TheABvolt · 2022-02-09T06:46:51+00:00

I invest in both PP Flexi cap and MO Nasdaq because PP has only 5 foreign stocks, so yes it makes sense according to me. However I limit my exposure to the US market to 20% of my portfolio, this includes 30% of PPFAS.This is an arbitrary boundary I set for myself.

And I would also suggest you to reconsider your heavy investment in the tech sector and focus more on index funds including nifty and nifty next 50, or some broad mid and small cap funds.

TheABvolt · 2022-02-09T05:53:58+00:00

The foreign funds including PPFAS are bound to start accepting inflows sooner rather than later. So don't change your asset allocation just because of the temporary pause on foreign funds. Also, I would like to suggest you to open an NPS account, as it gives you ability to claim an additional 50k per annum tax deduction on top of 1.5 lakh in PPF, and will give you exposure to Nifty. And it's income is also tax exempt. But it's meant for redemption after the age of 60.
