I’m an investment advisor too…based on my experience, quality investment advisory is still in very early stages in India (unlike developed countries). People are not showing much interest to pay investment advisory fees to get a quality advise (definitely it will pay back with greater ROI)..if anyone needs investment advisory or retirement advisory, pm me..

It's not beginning,
I am doing this since 2011, I have closed demat accounts many time, and reopened it with many brokerage houses.
I have investments into Mutual funds, and some direct Equities too.
But in the past my heart beats used to go with the flow of market ticks during the trading hours of NSE and MCX.
Now I know only one thing,
All sort of fundamental/technical research doesn't work , Trading is actually a behavioral skill, and you will have to fight only with your imotion.

didn't paid my education loan during initial days of my career
