Technically my first salary was Rs.190 for NCC when I was in the eighth grade. Professionally, I earned my first salary by acting in Mamta. I think I used to get Rs. 6,000 a day and I used that money for my house rent and daily expenses. How much money do you carry every day? I hardly carry money with me. The debit and credit cards take care of the expenses. There are times when change is needed and I don’t even have fifteen bucks with me. Do you invest in the stock market? No and I would never do that even in the future because I don’t like any kind of gambling. Any advice for investors? It is difficult to make money so be careful when you invest.
