Inside a ₹7 Cr Portfolio Built with Low Salary | Quick Case Study | Financial Freedom

In this episode, we take a quick look inside Arun’s personal portfolio - someone who started his career earning ₹7,500 a month and built ₹7 Cr over the years through disciplined investing. His journey hasn’t followed a typical path. There were phases of real estate, direct stocks, and mutual funds, along with a few bold investing decisions and strong personal views on money. But what makes this conversation even more interesting is the contrast at home. His wife Navya has a very different approach to investing. In this short portfolio walkthrough, we explore how their thinking differs, how they plan as a couple, and what their journey has looked like so far. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Timestamps: 00:00–00:33 Intro - From ₹7.5k Salary to a ₹7 Cr Portfolio 00:34–01:20 Arun’s Background & Career Journey 01:21–02:05 First Investment: Early in Career 02:06–02:59 First Exposure to the Stock Market 03:00–04:20 Going Heavy on Direct Stocks & the ITC Bet 04:21–05:22 Returning to Mutual Funds & Current Portfolio 05:23–05:43 Monthly Investments, Salary & Expenses 05:44–05:52 Arun's Passive Income that Pays His Rent 05:53–07:10 Navya’s Introduction & Her Investing Style 07:11–08:44 How the Couple Manages Expenses Together 08:45–09:22 Why Arun DOESN'T Gift Toys to his Son 09:23–10:23 Navya Reacts to Arun's Bold Stance 10:24–11:01 Why They Still Live on Rent 11:02–12:21 Arun & Navya on F.I.R.E. 12:22–12:52 Rabbit & Tortoise Analogy for Portfolio 12:53–End Final Advice for Viewers ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Follow us on social media: LinkedIn:   / powerup-money   YouTube:    / @powerup_money   Twitter:  / powerup_money   Instagram:   / powerup_money   PowerUp Money is India's trusted mutual fund advisory app. Find us here : https://app.powerup.money/xDsX/poweru...
