   Property Rich, Yield Poor | Brick & Balance Sheet, Episode 1

   Most Indian families hold more wealth in property than in everything else combined. Very little of it is measured. There is no red number on a phone screen when a flat underperforms, so nobody notices. This is the first episode of Brick & Balance Sheet, where property gets looked at the way a portfolio manager would look at it. What we get into: - Why a ₹4 crore flat can be earning under 3%, and how to work out what yours actually earns - ₹10 crore of idle property is roughly ₹60 lakh a year you are never paid - the cost that never shows up anywhere - Gurugram home sales fell 33%. Whether that is a crash, or something slower and more uncomfortable - Own a ₹20 crore home? What an exit really costs, and why it can take three and a half years - Home, Earner, Grower or Sleeper - a ten-minute audit of everything you own - Three property myths that cost families crores - Five questions to ask before your next property cheque No project pitches, no price predictions, no developer names. The numbers and how to read them. What to do with the answer is a conversation, and that one is best had directly. Brick & Balance Sheet is a Finogent Insights series.

   One Company Rich | The Founder's Ledger, Episode 1

   One company pays your salary. The same company holds most of your net worth, through ESOPs or RSUs. And the loan on your house is backed by those same shares. That is one risk, counted three times - and on a normal Tuesday it looks like success. This is the first episode of The Founder's Ledger, for founders, CXOs and senior leaders whose wealth sits inside a single company. What we get into: - Why 5% of Indian companies produced 92% of the wealth, and what that means if you work at one of them - Four in ten listed stocks fell 70% and never recovered - the ones nobody writes case studies about - The margin-call maths when you have borrowed against your own shares - Why your RSU tax is already paid, and why holding on afterwards is a fresh decision, not a continuation - The half test: if the stock halved tomorrow, how long could your family carry on unchanged - Five questions to ask before your next vesting date No stock calls, no predictions. Published data and a framework you can run on your own numbers this evening. What you do about it is a conversation, and we are happy to have it. The Founder's Ledger is a Finogent Insights series.

   Private Credit with Sanket Sinha | The Allocator's Chair, Episode 1

   Equity markets have been volatile, fixed deposits are barely keeping pace with inflation, and a lot of Indian family money is sitting in the gap between the two. Private credit is what a growing number of family offices have moved into. Almost nobody explains what it actually is. In this first episode of The Allocator's Chair, Rajat Dhar sits down with Sanket Sinha of Lighthouse Canton - a man who allocates this money for a living - and asks the questions an investor would actually ask. What we get into: - What private credit really is, in plain language, and who is on the other side of the loan - Why India's private credit market is growing the way the US market did, and where the two differ - Whether it genuinely diversifies away from equity, or only looks that way until a bad year - How these funds are structured, where leverage sits, and what that does to your risk - The questions to ask before you put a rupee in This is a conversation about how the money works, not a recommendation to put yours anywhere. If it raises a question about your own portfolio, that is a conversation to have with us directly. The Allocator's Chair is a Finogent Insights series. Conversations from the allocator's side of the table.

   Your Pension Is Not a Plan | The Income Years, Episode 1

   At 60, the average Indian lives 18.4 more years. Half of us live longer. So retirement isn't a holiday. It's a thirty-year project. Most families go into it with two things: a pension and a pile of fixed deposits. That's income. It isn't a plan. This is the first episode of The Income Years, for families who are retired or close to it, including defence and government families. What we get into: - Why medical costs, rising about 11.5% a year, double in just over six years - Why a 7% senior citizen FD in the 30% bracket earns almost nothing after tax and inflation - The family pension cliff: 30% of last pay, against a pension of about half - Why a ₹1,000-a-month EPS pension means your savings are your pension, and the new NPS exit rules - The Three-Tank Income Engine: Floor, Bridge and Growth, with a Shield around all three - The 33% problem: why a market fall early in retirement hurts the most - Three tests every retired family should run: Floor, Spouse and Inflation - Five questions before you lock your money anywhere No product pitches, no predictions. Published data and a framework you can run on your own family's numbers this evening. How to fix it for your family is a conversation, and we're happy to have it: WhatsApp 95604 89579.
