Avinash Baskar — Co-Founder
If you are a busy salaried professional who wants to invest seriously but feels unsure because every opinion around money sounds different, this is for you. Most people are not bad with money. They are just operating without a clear system. Between work pressure, family time, household responsibilities, and trying to keep some space for yourself, personal finance usually gets pushed to the bottom of the list. You plan to analyse and invest later. Later becomes months. Sometimes years. Social media adds to the noise. A reel here. A post there. And even when you want help, a few questions hold you back: Can I trust someone else with my money? Should I just do this myself? What if the advice is biased? And I get it!!!!! I am Avinash, an AMFI Registered Mutual Fund Distributor, and I help salaried professionals invest with clarity, structure, and conviction through deeply researched mutual funds. Before starting Finamily, I worked at Uber, where I saw firsthand that a high income does not automatically lead to financial stability. My journey into finance started with my own struggles. From buying a house to choosing the right funds, every decision felt confusing, and stressful. I wished there was someone who could explain things clearly and help me make decisions with confidence. That experience shaped how I work today. Before we even talk about mutual funds, we focus on the basics. → Understanding your income, expenses, loans, and goals → Putting the right insurance and emergency fund in place → Only then building a MFP for short term needs and long term goals like retirement Having invested in the stock market for years, > I analyse mutual funds based on the companies they own, not just past returns or fund manager reputation. > I have developed a curated list of mutual funds based on over 100 + hours of research and interactions with fund managers from across the globe. > I have identified several multi-baggers including Meta, Alibaba etc. using Warren Buffet’s principles of Value Investing. Today, clients with over ₹200+ crores of assets trust me to guide their investments with honesty and discipline. What working with me gives you: → Decisions that actually get implemented → A clear plan that fits your life → Freedom from constant monitoring, second guessing, and market anxiety If you already invest in mutual funds but are unsure how your portfolio is performing OR if you are just starting out, you can DM on LinkedIn or book a FREE 1:1 call (Link in Featured section). Looking forward to connecting :))
