Introduction to this blog

 Let's get started! First things first: Finance! What is it, how people can use this to their advantage in terms of savings, growing wealth etc.?

My take on finance, is that it is the management of money, with the ultimate aim to either preserve wealth or to grow wealth. Finance is everywhere, not just in the financial markets. Everyday we deal with finance. From our paycheck at the end of the month, how much should we budget our spending, based on our expenses - mortgages, bills etc? When we want to buy a car or a house, does our paycheck allow us to spend $x each month on loans? 

With all that said, this blog is meant to be a guide on how to value stocks, as I am keen on a career in Sales & Trading or Corporate Finance, Valuation or Private Equity. From there, I will hopefully move on to start doing some top-down and bottom-up analyses of companies on the blog. Thanks for reading!
