In 2000, two brothers inherited Rs. 10 lakh each. Their father had just passed away.
Same family. Same amount. Same city.
The older brother didn't think twice. "Property le lo. Zameen kabhi nahi jaati."
He bought a plot.
The younger brother did something different. He put his Rs. 10 lakh into PSX. Banks.
Fertilizer. Oil companies.
His family thought he'd lost his mind.
Stocks? That's gambling.
Property is real. You can touch it.
What if the market crashes?
He said nothing. He just waited.
25 years later...
The older brother's plot?
Roughly Rs. 4 crore. 40x in 25 years. Genuinely respectable.
The younger brother's portfolio?
Rs. 10 to 12 crore. PSX Index went from 1500 to 160,000.
Same money. Same Pakistan. Same 25 years.
Just a different asset. 3x bigger result.
But here's what nobody talks about.
He wasn't holding stocks. He was holding businesses.
Businesses with customers. With revenues. With people showing up every day, building something.
Market price fluctuates. Business value compounds.
He never confused the two.
If you have Rs. 10 lakh now, what will you do? Because 25 years from today, you will be sitting at the same dinner table.
Property or Stocks? Tell me in the comments.

We are only one month away from the budget. I would request everyone to highlight the issue of unfair taxation on the salaried class and demand real, tangible relief from the government on every possible forum during this one-and-a-half-month period until the budget is approved. Regardless of the expected outcome, your voice matters. This is the minimum you can do for yourself and this orphan neglected salaried class.

Exactly! contrary to other countries, which have been revising tax slabs upward in line with inflation, we have taken a complete 180-degree turn. Instead of revising the slabs upward, they have drastically brought them down, which—combined with inflation—has crushed the salaried class. Yet, some people still go out of their way to justify this unjust change. Do you know what the biggest injustice done to the salaried class is? If I had to name just one, it would be this: the highest tax slab was reduced from Rs. 75 million to just Rs. 4.1 million, which is now taxed at 35%. This rate was once meant only for the ultra-rich or very high earners. Now, even an ordinary salaried person earning Rs. 4.1 million annually is subject to a 35% tax rate.

I agree - their app (#Finqalab) is too good as compared to all other brokers out there, but their customer service isn't.
When I first moved my holdings to them, I had issues. Raised them multiple times via WhatsApp & email. Nothing got sorted.

@najam_ali @akifsaeed65 @KhizarKahloon Customer service has a long way to go in case of Finqalab. So many beginners come on groups clueless about issues they are facing. A dedicated call center would go a long way.

Perfect solution no?

@aimaimrankhan They can fulfill the demand but the question is, at what cost? The general public would rather have 4 hours load shedding and 50pkr per unit instead of nonstop electricity at 190pkr per unit. (Numbers are for illustrative purposes)

PPP knows only to rule and extract. It doesn’t know how to govern and serve.
PPP’s philosophy is that while it is in the government it should extract as much resources from the public and Pakistani taxpayers as possible. There is no sense of public welfare. None.

Institutions offloaded more than 1,000,000 shares of UBL under 300 this morning.
And you wonder why no Mutual fund has beaten the market consistently.
Over a decade, no mutual fund has better returns than the market.
UBL is trading above 300.

She was talking about the dirty and fossil fuel industries harming the environment; they should be forced to include the cost of harm to resources.
It's actually an argument for harm, such as taxes like the Carbon Tax.
I think her argument was solid,
But you are just farming engagement.

“Water, soil, and oxygen should not be infinitely accessible. They are assets that should be included in global economic balance sheets.” This is not satire. The World Economic Forum wants to monetise breathing.

@imemon15 How to use stop loss tool in vtrade and other apps?
English
One has to understand that every market moves it cycles
PSX has given tremendous gains in past 3 years and still has potential to go to new highs
However the dip was due for so long and this dip is right now happening
Wait till this correction reaches its completion
I know there are many people who have just started investing in PSX, even Gold or Silver in January and those people are worried about their investment
Unlike many people, I don't believe in false hope, I believe that one should use Stoploss Tool to protect investment
Many people say that Stoploss is just for Short Term trading and that's a wrong concept
When you get a cut on finger you have to put bandage to stop bleeding. Whether the cut is small is deep, you have to put bandage, otherwise you cut can turn into severe infection
So, no matter you are a Short Term Trader or a Long Term Investor, Stoploss has to be there.
Good Luck

@TalhaEjaz07ee IT will be the sector to benefit the most، if devaluation was to occur , no?

Just went through Interloop’s latest half-year report and ran the numbers.
If PKR devalues from 280 ==> 300, ILP profitability can increase ~45–55%.

Yes, that’s why I always say: keep raising your voice consistently against the unfair taxation of the salaried class. Insha’Allah, one day we will succeed in achieving a fair taxation system in the country. Mayusi kufr hai.

No doubt, international prices have gone through the roof, and we need to align ourselves accordingly. However, using petrol prices to bridge the FBR revenue shortfall caused by poor performance is unacceptable. Charging the common man Rs. 161 per liter as a levy and around 24 per litre in custom duty making 185 per liter in taxes/duties is nothing but the height of incompetence. The FBR has failed to broaden the tax base, and the cost of this failure is being borne by everyone—regardless of whether a person pays zero direct tax, Rs. 1 lac per month, or even more.
Why should the common man suffer due to the incompetence of a department that has consistently been rewarded with perks, vehicles, increments, and bonuses? Why can it not be shut down?
Shahbaz Rana@81ShahbazRana
Should people go to the court against the government’s heartless action to charge Rs161 per litre petrol levy, to set local price of petrol at Rs459 per litre, which is much more than international price? @miandawoodadv and others can guide please
