Having spent the first 6 years of his professional life as an infantry officer with the Indian Army, author Nantu Majumdar almost never focused on wealth or prosperity. He earned and spent money and did it well. The army takes good care of its soldiers, so he never had to think of cost of living, his children’s education and medical costs. The challenge came when he completed his army tenure and joined the world outside. Suddenly Nantu found himself waiting for monthly salaries; money that got credited in his account would diminish faster than he expected or planned. He had already compromised on the standard of living and he also had to worry about his children’s future and high cost of education. He had now started feeling that his life was falling apart.

Being stubborn to achieve and striking a balance in life.

The book suggests ways to achieve prosperity through various examples and its almost as though the author is talking to you face-face. The feeling you get when you read a Good book...It lingers with you as you now know way to prosperity.
