Quote from Ahmed Raza

"When I made my first investment in prize bond at the age of 23, understanding the only basics, it kickstarted my quest for whatever money I had, to invest and expanded this journey to invest in real estate with a 10% profit-loss ratio and within in 2 years, secured almost 32.5% returns. My goal in writing personal finance is to provoke a similar motivational spark in readers and increase personal wealth to make possible what it can do for you."
