Co-founder, TLDR Money · Architect by training
Nirmal Amin co-founded TLDR Money and designed the product itself — the app, the characters and this site. He trained as an architect at Oxford Brookes University, which is a background in working out how a system has to be put together before anyone lives in it, and that is the same instinct the writing here runs on.
He writes the money mechanics series: the arithmetic behind EMIs, rent versus buy, subscription creep, and the date you could actually stop working, run on Indian salaries in rupees. Most Indian money writing either sells a product or restates a formula built for a different country. These posts do the second thing properly — the sources are RBI, SEBI, NSE and the Income Tax Department, they are linked where the figure appears, and every projection states the assumption it rests on so you can disagree with the assumption rather than the conclusion.
He is not a financial adviser and has never claimed to be. The posts here are explanations of how the numbers work, not advice about your money, and TLDR Money is not a registered investment adviser or distributor. The reason to read any of it is narrower than credentials: the arithmetic is shown, so you can check it.
