And think why a push back argument gets crypto believers so ruled that they get abusive, personal and angry. Cults prevent your discerning mind to take rational decisions. Evolution got us from amoeba to having this mind. Let's use it!

It is shocking that the insurance regulator has discarded a fairer value proposal to policyholders for early surrender. Now with first year commissions that can go unto 100% and very high surrender costs, expect to be mis-sold more and more. What is the @FinMinIndia doing?

b. There is no underlying asset to a digital token. Shares have firms that make products and services. Bonds have borrowers and lenders. Gold and commodities have intrinsic use. Metals are valuable because we give them that value.

Thank you @Tejasvi_Surya for taking up this very important issue in Parliament. Understanding money is a life skill that must be taught in schools and colleges. More power to you!

Personal financial management is crucial life skill that young Indians must be taught as they enter job market. It will help them navigate financial life effectively & prevent falling prey to dubious schemes, debt traps. Urged @EduMinOfIndia to introduce in college curriculum.

What can you say about badly brought up men who are never taught to respect women in their own homes. And never gain the maturity to know where to draw lines of decency.

There is now double and triple taxation for those in the income tax net. In their effort to catch the non-tax-paying wealthy Indian, @nsitharaman @FinMinIndia is really hurting the genuine tax payers who are getting hurt needlessly.

Another call from a 79 year old who has been sold junk life insurance by somebody who lives across the street, is known for years. Senior citizen does not need the money. Has a generous pension. Wonder why IRDAI can't put in basic suitability metrics on sales?
