Smart home devices promise convenience, security, and savings. But most people buy them and wonder if they were worth it a year later. This article separates the devices that genuinely save money or time from the gadgets that just look cool. This isn’t about having the latest tech. It’s about tech that earns its place […]
You Just Updated… Now What? So, you finally hit that “Download and Install” button. You watched the progress bar crawl for twenty minutes, your phone rebooted, you entered your PIN, and… everything looks exactly the same. Don’t worry, you didn’t download a dud. Android 15 isn’t about splashing a fresh coat of paint on your
1. The Real Question: Can You Sleep at Night? Stop asking “Which investment is better?” That is the wrong question. If you ask a crypto millionaire, they will tell you stocks are for dinosaurs. If you ask a wealth manager, they will tell you crypto is rat poison. Both are biased. The only question that
I have a friend—let’s call him Rahul—who has six different cashback folders on his phone. He spends about 15 minutes a day spinning wheels, scratching digital cards, and hunting for “coins.” Last month, after all that effort, he proudly told me he made ₹140. Then there’s my cousin, who has exactly two apps. She spends
The Confession I distinctly remember the Tuesday afternoon that changed everything for me. It wasn’t a dramatic financial crash or a scary call from a creditor. It was much quieter, and in a way, much more embarrassing. I was standing in line at a coffee shop in Indiranagar, waiting for a ₹350 cold brew that
What if you could set up an income stream today and have AI handle 80% of the heavy lifting for you? In 2025, that’s not a pipe dream—it’s happening. I’ve spent the last year testing dozens of automation tools, and here is the honest truth: AI hasn’t made “get rich quick” schemes any more real,
Americans and Indians alike are facing a unique economic pressure cooker in 2025. While inflation has cooled slightly, the cost of living remains stubbornly high. The solution for many isn’t cutting coupons—it’s income diversification. Recent data suggests that successful side hustlers aren’t just making “pizza money” anymore; they are building systems that generate reliable monthly
You might think you know your iPhone 16 pretty well. You shoot photos, swipe notifications, and maybe even tested the new Camera Control button once or twice. But I’ll say something slightly uncomfortable: most people are using maybe half of what this phone is capable of. Somewhere between setup screens and daily habits, Apple’s most
Last year, picking a phone under $300 (roughly ₹25,000) meant accepting a series of disappointing compromises. You usually got a dim LCD screen, cameras that fell apart after sunset, and software that would be abandoned by the manufacturer in eighteen months. But 2025 has been different. The gap between a $300 device and a $1,000
It’s late 2025. The initial “gold rush” hype around ChatGPT has settled. We are no longer in the phase where simply asking an AI to write a generic blog post guarantees you traffic or money. The landscape has matured. But here is the good news: The opportunity to make money with AI 2025 is actually
I have two tabs pinned to my browser permanently. On the left is ChatGPT (currently running GPT-5 with occasional dips into the o1-Pro “Reason” model). On the right is Gemini Advanced, powering the new 2.5 Pro and Gemini 3 Deep Think models. For the last three months, I’ve forced myself to switch between them for
If 2023 was the year of the collective gasp—that moment when we first saw ChatGPT generate a sonnet about a toaster—and 2024 was the year of the “Slop” (an endless deluge of uncanny, six-fingered images), then 2025 has arrived as the year of something far more boring, yet infinitely more consequential: Utility. We have effectively
