Monika sufficiently provoked us with her insights on women’s financial independence. She then, went on to calm us down with her equally compelling notes on creating wealth. Monika didn’t blink an eye to call out all the silly mistakes that derails the plans of building a portfolio and moving towards viable financial freedom. She is brilliant!

Halan's toolbox is full of reader-friendly equipment. Her English is a kind of Indian English, with its exuberant syntax and commingling of other languages, which is also the language of her target audience. The writer draws on her experiences and those of her friends to whip up engaging anecdotes, homilies, similes, among others, which enliven and humanize her subject. Her engaging voice is just what abook of advice needs. Her tone is that of a friend forthright and compassionate.
