How using a dishwasher brought relief to my family and how I use it?

 Making the choice I came across several youtube videos on dishwasher initially. I am a tech savvy person and love to automate repeatative tasks and I have a goal to automate most of my household repeatative tasks. So, that we get quality time together and are not dependent on domestic help for heavy lifting. We have children and not a large family where she would receive support in child daily activities from family seniors. As a result, we are very much on our own and have to depend on our own time management and on machines - washing machine, refrigerator, 2 wheelers, amazon scheduled deliveries, dishwasher for our comfort and daily work needs. Deciding on the machine I checked different dishwasher online and zeroed in on Voltas beko 8 place set. It is the smallest and the cheapest machine with the highest review in the online e-commerce space.I also did a market study to see if the dishwasher specific detergents are available offline. It is not available. I also went to a local ele

Story of How I lost INR 40,000 by participating in Stock Lending and Borrowing Scheme (SLBM)

Background I came to know about it a bit earlier and there was a lot of paper work that had to be signed. I initially attempted to complete the process by sending it online after filling the forms and scanning them and sending them to IDBI capital official email ids. This was during the height of covid 19, so travel was still limited and work from home was going on. However, it failed as they required office visit in-person for form submission and verification. So, I waited another 1 year. I also came to learn that the scheme is still not popular and I am possibly the first one to apply for this scheme in the entire eastern India region of IDBI capital. I filled the form and resubmited physically. Procedure I needed to go to a specific SLBM page of NSE everyday and export the file in CSV format - https://www.nseindia.com/market-data/securities-lending-and-borrowing Then I needed to filter the spread with a value (not the blank ones) under series -B. SLB is generallay done on the stocks

How to identify your dream company or dream job?

 I consider myself a level headed person neither too intelligent nor stupid, a mix of both. And I have spent a decade in the job market of India but my observations or key takeaways can be applicable to any other "employee" in any other nation. Firstly, there is no dream company accept it. That company you consider "dream company" will make profit at the expense of your job (fire you at the drop of the hat) or even your dead body. Try to have a professional and transactional relationship. Secondly, the salry structure and appraisals are rigged towards the profit of the company.So, if you think you want to become rich start investing in stock market (via mutual funds) buy REITs - simply buy "assets" with your salary that is what I did and over a period of time now I can see that my lifestyle is not tied to appraisal or promotion. It makes your life so easy. Thirdly, Have your own term insurance and medical insurance. Dont think that your company's group

My Experience with Diapers and trial and error frustations

 Diapers are a vital and essential item for new parents. With the variety of brands and types of diapers available, choosing the right one for your baby can be overwhelming. In this guide, we will discuss the important factors you need to consider when purchasing diapers to make sure you get the best fit and comfort for your little one.

Rohm Nexus Electric cycle Review after 2 years use

My bicycle brand is not very popular and is from Haryana and has no website etc.  It is rather unknown generic brand. I initially checked Hero lectro models but since lower end versions of Hero Lectro didnt had removable battery and I needed removable battery. So, I had to abandon Hero Lectro. I purchsed it from my local bicycle store. However to check the picture and configuration of this cycle I am sharing the link of this website which I accidentally stumbled upon while trying to look for a website of my bicycle's website for future customer care and warranty registration needs, at least what I thought would be delivered to me. Only online Link of my e-bicycle on the internet -  https://bliveevstore.com/product/nexus/ I have used this on bad city roads and for exercising purposes only. I also participated twice on 2 separate cyclothons and maximum distance covered on a single go was 20 kms.It costed me around INR 26,000/- including GST. The body material is no very good quality

Film Review Drishyam 2

 Recently saw Drishyam 2 on Amazon prime. I have seen the part 1 of the Drishyam series starring Ajay Devgan. The movie is realling interesting with all its revealations and plot twists.However, to make the movie exprience more gripping, one should first see the hindi version of DRishyam 1. However, some of the parts looked over the top in the sense Sam's mother (mordered boy's mom -Tabu), even after withdrawing from police is used to deploy 2 serving female and male police staff and posing them as husband wife and buyer of Ajay Devgan's property. There 2 police staff is deployed for 7 years, over which they bug the house of Ajay Devgan and take recordings as we are later shown. From a logical stand point this looks highly illogical in the sense you require a degree of government approval for a closed case to deploy man and resource based on suspicion. Anyways it is shown that the whole town believed that Ajay Devgan has actually murdered and talks shit behind his back and
