unfettered crazy

Home

Welcome to Janky Thoughts! In this blog-cum-collection, I write about topics that take my interest, mostly with regards to finance. There are 3 main types of posts here:

LearningsLearnings are a collection of semi-educational topics that I’ve learned over the course of my life and work. In these posts, I discuss, in more formal tones, topics that form the foundation of my understanding of the world.
MusingsMusings are semi-long form, unfettered, random thoughts that pop into my head every now and then. Occasionally funny and hopefully informative, musings are my take on the happenings du jour.
Quick notesQuick notes are short form, timely notes that talk about what’s happening at the moment. These are personal observations and notes, and hint at the things that are on my mind at the moment.

For those who are trying to make sense of the world of finance, learnings may be a good place to start. If you just want a light-hearted read, musings may be more your thing, and if you are just trying to see where my head is at, the latest quick notes may be what you want.

Feel free to browse by the type of posts that interest you, or just dive into the latest Janky Thoughts, below!
