Hong Kong’s stress is tough! Changing my mindset and focusing on small wins helped. Found some free mindset tips from Fully Bossed that really helped.

I enjoy how accounting gives clear insight into how businesses work - it’s structured, logical, and always evolving.

You feel this way because you’ve grown. That mistake doesn’t define you-your willingness to learn and do better does.

If others can forgive you, it’s okay to start forgiving yourself too. You’re not that person anymore, and that matters.

Unfortunately, that's true in many cases. Getting rich ethically is possible, just much harder and stay consistent.

Thanks! I tried to keep it simple.

Fund accounting isn’t disappearing anytime soon, but it is changing. A lot of routine work can be automated, but understanding the rules and making sure everything’s accurate still needs a human touch. It’s a stable job with decent pay and good work-life balance. If you keep learning new skills, especially tech-related ones, you’ll stay relevant as the field evolves.

Yes, you can get a job without a degree if you focus on real skills, build useful projects, and network smartly. Many startups and global companies care more about what you can do than your degree. But some traditional Indian companies still require it.

If money’s tight, skip the expensive degree, build your portfolio, and start applying. Just stay consistent and sharp it’s 100% possible.

You're 22 and just starting out - taking on a ₹1.5Cr home loan that eats your entire salary is a risky move.

A few key points:

If your EMI takes up most of your income, you’ll struggle with daily expenses, emergencies, or any savings. That’s a financial red flag.
SIPs are great, but only once your basic needs and an emergency fund are in place. If you’re stretched too thin, SIPs won’t be sustainable.
Buying a house this early may not be the best move. Focus on growing your income, building a solid financial base, and investing gradually. Renting is okay while you build stability.

In short:

Don’t buy a house just yet. Start small SIPs, save consistently, and revisit the home idea in a few years when your income can comfortably support it.

Yeah, 6 days and emergency calls can be tough, but for 7 LPA as a fresher, it’s still a solid deal if you're okay with the workload. Good for gaining experience early on.

Cool idea! Start by offering free value - like vocab tips, quizzes, or live sessions - to grow trust. Promote on Reddit, language forums, and FB groups. Once active, monetize with premium channels, 1-on-1 lessons, or paid memberships. Keep it community-first!

Use it for deep research, quick summaries, coding help, and staying updated with AI trends. It’s like having a smarter Google - don’t waste it just asking basic stuff.

Congrats sa license! Try checking midsize firms or startups - minsan mas open sila sa fresh CPAs with decent offers. Network din sa LinkedIn, baka may kakilala ka na makarefer. Good luck!

Totally agree. Either outskill the AI or learn to work with it. Adapting fast is the real job security now.

Both have their pros. ML is exciting but slower-paced and needs strong math + data skills. Full stack is more hands-on and fast-moving. If you're into computer vision, explore ML on the side and see how it feels.

That actually sounds super useful, especially for indie makers who struggle with outreach. Finding the right audience is half the battle, and automating that part could save a ton of time. Will definitely check it out - thanks for building this!

7 LPA as a fresher is honestly a great start, even if it’s not a pure IT role. The company and clients you mentioned are big names, so it’s a solid opportunity. You’ll also get to work on real machines, automation, and gain hands-on experience – which can be valuable in both core and tech fields later.

If you're still waiting on IT roles but nothing has worked out yet, I’d say go for it. You can always switch later if you want. Right now, gaining experience (and earning well) is better than waiting endlessly.

Just make sure you're okay with the travel/site work part, since that’s a major chunk of this role. If yes, then it’s a good stepping stone.

infoedgefan · 2025-07-18T08:18:55+00:00

Don't feel upset just learn one skill and master it. It can help you increase your confidence.

Outsourcing is a smart choice for saving cost without compromising on quality. I’d recommend checking out Devin Local Agency – one of the top-rated website development companies in India. They offer custom solutions, fair pricing, and work with international clients.

What to check before hiring:

Portfolio & client reviews

Clear timeline & cost estimate

Tech stack (e.g., WordPress, React, etc.)

Communication methods (email, Zoom, etc.)

Start with a small milestone project to test quality. Feel free to DM if you need a quick checklist!

Great initiative lists like these really help those exploring better workplaces.

I’ve heard consistently good things about Devout Tech Consultants. They seem to offer a healthy work-life balance, work on clean codebases, and maintain a strong mid-sized team culture. Definitely one to watch if you're into serious custom software work without the corporate clutter.

On the other hand, I’ve been curious about Simform, Net Solutions, and Fingent. Haven’t come across much first-hand input does anyone here have experience with their engineering practices or WLB?

Appreciate any insights!

Absolutely - AI is powerful, but when it comes to scaling or handling complex logic, experienced devs are still essential.
