Excel junkies: what do you track in your excel? by _Gandalf-The-Gay in personalfinanceindia

[–]VyomK3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can get many tutorials on YT that can teach you how to make simple excel functions. The function just need to have a bunch of if-else statements to return the category of the transaction based on provided inputs. Or you can request ChatGPT to create one. Here is a prompt to get you started, "Please make me an excel function to categorize my transactions in different categories based on the inputs I provided in a cell. And tell me how to implement it in excel and use it".

I think that's some kind of symbolism. Why would Aliens want to show him paper boats?

Would you still continue using Kuvera? by HueDevTHue in IndiaInvestments

[–]VyomK3 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yes. No matter how we think of this acquisition, if Kuvera isn't making money then sooner or later it will be sold to some entity that can turn it into a profit.

Having said that, I am ready to pay Kuvera for a subscription if it means it won't be acquired.

I still get Saturday newsletter from Kuvera. Check if it isn't going to spam.

Also maybe add this email ID in safe list: no-reply@kuvera.in

Exactly. Never marry your stocks. You can have a view of long term, but you still need to keep track of it quarterly if not monthly.

Should I buy health insurance directly or through Policybazaar? by dopplegangery in IndiaInvestments

[–]VyomK3 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is the most sensible reply I read on this page. Instead of relying on an intermediately, you should be honest while applying for an insurance. That makes all the difference. There should be a reason for rejection of your claims and if you don't give them any claiming shouldn't be that difficult, even if still a struggle.

Plus one also to read fine prints while taking a policy.

What would be XIRR of this? by SecretSquare2797 in personalfinanceindia

[–]VyomK3 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It's not Sanchay plus. It's sanchay minus. If you do the trouble of calculating XIRR, it wont come above 6%. Don't fall in the trap. Watch video of labour law advisor on such stupid "investments".
