I remember this title when I prepared everything and was thinking about the name. It came from one of my favorite speeches of former RBI governor D Subba Rao. In my mind, it means that you achieve some things but still there are challenges in front of you, and that is not false.
I remember how I started my first blog when 24 hours before I wasn’t aware of blogging. But then one thing lead to other and I started it on google blogger. It just started with Missed Opportunity it’s updated version is still here for you to read. A few days back, I found an original version of that post when I was cleaning my email and deleting google drive, with many grammar mistakes and all. I remembered my old days. How I started. how I was brainstorming and all. then it went ahead. for quite some time I was on wordpress.com then It was .net. Website which was the worst. Then I came to WordPress. For some time I deactivated it, but somehow I realize that if I am telling the world I am a blogger and my blog is not alive, what does that look like? I change domains also. From blogspot.com to wordpress.com to my own domain and now this .in domain
I wrote many memorable posts. Revenue system Of Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, L&T: Story of hostile takeover and rescue are some of it. on the fiasco of Yes bank, I wrote Story of Yes Bank: How Rana Kapoor build one institution which ended up becoming Too big to fail. Just like other bloggers, warren buffet is my all-time favorite. I wrote many posts about him. Somehow I started a series about His letters to shareholders but I realise that there are many people who already wrote about them and many people already waiting every year so hardly there are any special viewers who will come to this website for this.
Personal finance is another such part of finance and I realize that no matter what, I will hardly get any special viewership for that. Literally many people maybe half of the finance bloggers are personal finance bloggers. But still, I wrote about them like Types of Mutual Funds and where to use them in your personal finance, and Perspectives on personal finance. Personal Finance: The Dave Ramsey way Questions to ask a Financial Adviser. Should you pay off your Mortgage or invest Importance Of Investment Policy Statement
In the early days, I wrote about ratios. as a fundamental analysis guy, I know the importance of them but soon I realise that that is not the theme for what people will definitely come to this website. CASA: Don’t underestimate the Power of DEMAND LIABILITIES Asset Turnover Ratio Interest Coverage Ratio: Is shareholder’s wealth at risk? Debt To Capital Ratio I realize that You can’t write lengthily about them so It’s bound to be small.
Somehow I realise that what I was watching as fun can be a great subject and yes I wrote labor it and some of them somehow earned views also. Like comics, Politics. What to learn about finance from Donald trump? What to learn about finance from Batman? What to learn about finance from Spiderman?
But what about the future? While going through my old blog post I realize that many of my blog posts are short and not lengthy. So I think now it’s time. I have many ideas and as of today, I am planning some lengthy posts I realized the Number of posts published may not be the right measure, and the Number of words may be right. I don’t know but I am planning for it.
So As I am heading towards 500 posts, I realize that I didn’t post much about basic finance, in fact, I post about yield curves in recent times. So now I am heading in that direction. Also as I am receiving global views since my early days, I kept my audience global. Definitely, I received many views from the US but it was always foreign. Views from India are absent even if a large part of my posts is about listed companies in the Indian capital market. So I accept that the viewership of my website is global, so I need to cater to them. So I think it’s time to cater to them.
Another point is As I am writing, I also need to concentrate on different mediums. I am not much pro on youtube. So I don’t know what type of view will be there. I tried also but there were not many views.
I am trying my best for getting guest writers. I received some proposals but, soon I realized that what they are offering is not something that fits my website theme. After receiving so many requests for commercial posts, I realized that their terms and conditions literally mean you are selling your website to them free of cost. I build this website, this is an outcome of my efforts and all, and I don’t want to lose it. So I am open for the guest post but will keep a good eye on and read posts first before permitting them here if they are commercial. I kept ethics above all.
Last but not least. I want to make either a lengthy post or a series about the Debt market. I don’t have an idea about it but I know the importance of it and want to write or have something about it.
So yes. in simple words, I have plans and I am trying to make it all.
