My Story

Hi, I’m Akash — a personal finance enthusiast with a background working at Bank of America and Morgan Stanley.

Growing up, I noticed that very few people around me talked about money — not openly, not simply. And when they did, it often came with confusion, myths, or fear.

Even I made money mistakes — because no one ever taught me how to budget, save, or invest properly.

That’s when I realized: most people aren’t bad with money because they’re careless — they’re just never taught how to handle it.

So, I decided to change that.

After years of working in finance and learning from professionals, I wanted to simplify what I knew and share it with beginners — just like you.

That’s why I started Paisa Padho:
To break down personal finance into easy, no-jargon concepts, and to help you feel confident with your money – step-by-step.

📌 What I believe

💡 You don’t need to be great at math to manage money.
📘 Financial literacy should be taught like life skills — not complex theory.
🌱 Anyone can grow wealth with small, consistent action.
🧠 Money isn’t just about numbers. It’s also about habits, mindset, and confidence.

Everything I write is created with you in mind — someone who wants to take control, but doesn’t know where to start.

If my story sounds like yours, you’re not alone.
