Here is a discussion on various types of insurance cover, like term insurance, health insurance, accident insurance and critical illness discussion. This is the video of Ashal’s forenoon talk at the 6th Bangalore Investing Workshop.

For the first 1.5 hours of the workshop, the audience kept asking questions to Ashal about the above-mentioned insurance cover.

The video starts abruptly. Ashal had just asked the audience if they had a term insurance cover and is explaining what it is.

Note: The discussion at each workshop is different and depends entirely on the comfort level of the audience.

Most investor problems can be traced to a lack of informed decision making. We have all made bad decisions and money mistakes when we started earning and spent years undoing these mistakes. Why should our children go through the same pain? What is this book about? As parents, if we had to groom one ability in our children that is key not only to money management and investing but for any aspect of life, what would it be? My answer: Sound Decision Making. So in this book, we meet Chinchu, who is about to turn 10. What he wants for his birthday and how his parent’s plan for it and teach him several key ideas of decision making and money management is the narrative. What readers say!
