Valentine's Day on a Financial Diet 😘❤️😱
Hello!!
How are you all doing!? With Valentine's Day just around the corner, love is in the air, and so is the urge to splurge! But hold on to your wallets, because at FinCocktail, we're redefining romance this year with a sweet and savvy twist. 💰❤️ Before we dive right in, tell me…
Market ka haal: The Indian equity benchmarks have been falling flat with a minimal see-saw lately, and the RBI keeping policy rates unchanged wasn’t exactly helping although the broader indices seem to be doing slightly better. The reaction post the RBI policy was pivotal yesterday and moving forward too, a breakout on either side will signal the next directional move. European markets too have been keeping Bharat company by mostly falling but the US & Asian markets seem to be on the rise for the most part 🚀
Humara Gyaan: If you're one of those couples who have typical Valentine's Day celebrations with romantic gifts, chocolates, flowers, and the like, I have something even better for you:
Romance is in the gesture! Being romantic need not necessarily mean presenting a gift wrapped in pink or red. True romance lies not in material things but in the effort and meaning behind the gesture. So, this time, let's make it more meaningful than material gifts. Consider a mutual fund investment (after conducting due diligence, of course) to save up for your wedding if that's part of the plan, or save for a grand trip, perhaps alongside acquiring a travel-focused credit card.
And gestures need not be romantic alone! They can be financially sound, too. For instance, if you're a couple that enjoys dining out frequently, celebrate Valentine's Day by investing in something for your kitchen that will inspire you to spend meaningful time cooking together while saving money by avoiding splurges on tasty treats outside.

What I was up to: I finally got to take one week off after what feels like forever and I went on a vacay to Bangkok! I had an amazing time there, got to soak in the views, eat great food, and best of all, got to vibe at a Coldplay concert!!! It was a beautiful, recuperating getaway overall!
That said, as you may already know about our podcast,
🌟 There 👏🏽 Is 👏🏽 A 👏🏽 New 👏🏽 Episode 👏🏽 Every 👏🏽 FRIDAY! 🌟
BUT, it did not go up last week as planned and I hate it when that happens. The next episode will be out tomorrow, and I can’t wait for you guys to see/hear it!!
When I am asking you to make financially thought-out choices for Valentines, I am definitely not asking you to cheap out. I am merely making suggestions to look beyond the ordinary and make your actions count to bring you closer as a couple while keeping expenses in check. This Valentine's Day, let your love grow alongside your wealth and let it nudge you towards a prosperous future together!
Here's to a Valentine's Day filled with lots of love,
and wise financial choices!🥂✨
