From asking us to save on a little something to jolting us for not keeping up with expenses, that motherly wisdom has always given us the best insights in financial planning. So, to refresh up your memories and give you all a feeling of nostalgia, we have rounded up some of the most crucial financial advice from the day to day incidents we’ve been seeing since childhood.

1) “Itni sabzi li hai tumse, kam se kam dhaniya to dedo!”

We all have heard this more than once in our lives. The FREE dhaniya always made her feel like the best negotiator and taught us that we should always try to add value to the purchase. Remember the smile she had after winning the battle?

2) “Paise kya ped pe ugte hai?”

Rewind to your college days and think of the days when you asked for some extra money for that party you wanted to go. She has always reminded us that money does not come easy.

3)”Is fridge ki umar tumse bhi zyada hai.”

That’s right! There might be things at your home that are older than you. And, you must be hearing the same from her for so long. However, it also taught us that it’s important things to make things last. Remember, old is gold!

4) “Itne saare samaan pe kitna discount milega?”

Whenever she wanted to make a lot of purchases, she would ask for a discount on each product and in the end would play the card of purchasing so many things to get more discounts. That implies that one should go for a bundled purchase.

5) “Peeche to ₹30/kilo bol raha tha!”

Mothers negotiate on every transaction-EVERY transaction! In fact, at times she has pretended to walk away for the vendor to wait for his call. We have also learnt that no matter what, never right to settle on the price quoted by the vendor.
