Finance educator and content creator Neha Nagar recently launched her debut book Simple Money Serious Wealth: How to Turn Ordinary Income into Extraordinary Net Worth. 

Neha, who has been in the finance field for over a decade and in content creation for about seven years, decided to don the role of an author when she realised that, while people in India know more about money today than earlier, they aren’t necessarily good at managing it. 

“Almost everyone has watched a video on SIPs, insurance or tax-saving. They have information, but they don't have a structure. People start investing with excitement, but when markets fall or an unexpected expense comes up, they stop. Often, it's because they never had a plan behind that investment,” Neha tells YourStory.  

While a social media platform helps disseminate information, it has its structural limitations. A book, on the other hand, gives the author the space to explain an entire concept elaborately. 

“We wanted to help people build their own financial plan, choose products that actually suit their lives, and understand how to structure their money better. For me, social media can introduce people to money. But this book is about teaching them how to manage it,” says the New Delhi-based author. 

Her debut book Simple Money Serious Wealth was published on October 24. It sold over 3,000 copies in the first 24 hours, according to a post on the author's Instagram account. 

“At a bookstore in the city, we saw people in the 60–70 years age group picking up the book.
