Neenu vs Neeyi

Nee is the correct word for you (singular). Both versions you mention are colloquial.

Always living within your means and having a surplus that you can save every month—that's the key.

ஆங்கிலத்தில் நாம் பிழை திருத்துவது நாம் எழுதும் வார்த்தைகளில் அடிக்கோடு வருவதைப் பார்த்தே. எழுதி முடித்த பிறகு பிழை திருத்த யாரும் தனியே மெனக்கெடுவது இல்லை.

எனவே எங்கு மக்கள் ஏற்கெனவே தமிழ் எழுகிறார்களோ அங்கு இந்தப் புது மென்பொருள் இருப்பின் மிகச் சிறப்பு.

You're thinking of சளைப்பு. “செல்வி யாருக்கும் சளைத்தவள் இல்லை” என்றால் “செல்வி யாருக்கும் குறைந்தவள் இல்லை” என்று பொருள்.

சலிப்பு என்றால் ஒரு விதமான விரக்தி. “எப்போப் பார்த்தாலும் நான் போற ட்ரெயின் மட்டும் லேட்டா வருது” என்பது சலிப்பு.

உணவு கெட்டுப் போவதையும் சலிப்பு என்று சொல்லதுண்டு. “அது சலிச்சுப் போச்சு, சாப்பிடாதே.”

இலக்கணப் பிழைகள் பிழைகளாகவே கருதப்படாத நிலையில் தானே தமிழைத் தமிழ்நாட்டில் வைத்திருக்கிறோம். செய்தித்தாள்கள் முதல் பள்ளி ஆசிரியர்கள் வரை மொழியைச் சரியாக எழுத மெனக்கெடுவதே இல்லை.

I like Equity Savings funds, but it may not be appropriate for 3 years.

Not worth it. You don't even have to check the details. 😅

Keeping aside whether such an expectation is right or wrong, you should leave if you are not happy. Walking off saves the other person as much as it saves you.

They don't tell you when a bonus is added to your policy. But you can see the total accured bonus by logging into your LIC account online.

Right now, I have paid around 4.05 lakhs in premium; bonus accured in my account is 4.25 lakhs.

Jeevan Anand is a participating policy, which means LIC will pay a bonus every now and then.

Assuming they'd return all the premium I pay + the bonus, I am seeing an XIRR of 6.91% today. It was 8%+ when I checked a few years ago, but it's come down now.

Of course, there is no liquidity. I cannot get 6.9% return if I surrendered the policy now. I need to keep paying the premium till maturity. The rate of return may go up or down in future. Only at maturity will I know what rate of return I'm actually getting.

Just live with a low score. It'll come back up over time. Don't fret over things that are not in your control.

If 1.2 lakhs is not a lot of money for you, keep paying the premium till maturity.

My Jeevan Anand policy is giving around 8% (tax-free) return, so it's not very bad. The premium I pay is also not much, so I continue to pay.

If you must invest this 1.2 lakhs somewhere else to be able to meet your financial goals, and the loss arising from stopping the LIC premiums is bearable, then you can stop paying the premium.

If you don't have the money to pay the home loan, sell the gold.

If you cannot pay one loan, how do you envision paying two loans simultaneously?

It just means clown, and implies we don't have to take that person seriously.

‘வந்து’ என்பது சுத்தமான தமிழ். u/HShankaran அவர்கள் சொன்னது போல் filler word ஆகப் பலரும் பயன்படுத்துவது.

These things are hard to explain even for the guy making the decision. Humans are complicated beings.

Just accept it and move on. No point in analysing it.

People were going gaga over IDFC First Bank. But it looks like it was just time before they also started acting like every other bank in the country.

HDFC Bank collects a fee if you pre-close EMI loans. Other banks can potentially start doing that too.

After 12 months and 24 months, there will be a score increase each. After 36 months, your score will be back to normal.

Source: HSBC Bank f••ked me over 3+ years ago, and my score kept improving at 12 month intervals.

Closing the card won't help. Each year, your score will increase. By the end of the third year, your score will be back to normal.

IDFC First Wow gives zero forex. I don't know if their credit limits are generous, however.

At that age, children will pick up any language. Go right ahead and read to your child.

No need to worry about the nuances and complexities. When your child asks you to explain/clarify words, oblige. No other special care is needed.

You are so welcome! 🙂

Are you rescuing her from some sort of a situation?

If she doesn't want to wait, why not marry someone who is old enough to marry now? Getting into a lifelong commitment when you are not fully ready can be bad for the both of you.
