Omfiniti – spreading prosperity
Om = God, Fin = Finance, Niti = code of conduct or way of life. Omfiniti stands for hope and optimism that our planet becomes a place where humans can lead a way of life that is filled with happiness and financial prosperity for all. Just the way God intended. Omfiniti also stands for infinity and positivity that God has in store for all of us.
We are a young company that wants to make our society a more prosperous and happier place for our children. While there are thousands of ways to do so, our fundamental belief is that happy people make up a happy society. If we can contribute to improving people’s happiness then our objective will be achieved. We would have left the world a better place than we were born in.
While human happiness is a philosophical debate that will be around for as long as humans are around, we have restricted our simplistic definition to one tiny part of it. Presence of money does not guarantee happiness, but absence of money guarantees unhappiness!
Whether we quote ancient Indian philosophy of Panchtantra or our favorite psychologist Abraham Maslow and his famous “Maslow’s hierarchy of needs” – it all points to money being one of the essential ingredients of happiness (amongst others).
So what can a small start up do to help a society become a prosperous place? Our answer is – we can help the society by bringing financial literacy to its citizens in a way that allows them to touch, feel, smell, break things, put together things and in the process learn concepts of money management and while doing so have FUN!!!
Here we are – offering Omfiniti simulations to people so that for a price of a Starbucks coffee or maybe a movie ticket, we can help them understand principles of personal financial management. The aim is not to go deep, but go wide and in the process connect all the dots so that the big picture of personal financial management is clear to our community of Omfinians.
If we can help create a community of Omfinians who have empowered themselves and built their own personal financial plans, then they will take a step closer to happiness and prosperity. We hope you have fun and learn and become happy and prosperous!
To that we say – “Om”.
Our purpose is to help spread happiness and prosperity through our simulation and services.
Our passion is to bring together principles of personal financial management with technology in a way that allows us to offer AI-powered, hyper-personalized, learning solutions to young adults so that they may not only understand the theory of how money works in our lives but also develop some insights in to how they can be in control as they go through life.
A society where people can identify their needs and manage their resources better to fulfill their life’s aspirations will ultimately create a happier society. To that we say “Om”.
We have a young team of professionals who are good at
While the team has produced our humble simulations and services, we cannot forget the countless hours put in by our parents, grandparents, families, friends, neighbors, colleagues and teachers who helped us understand countless aspects of life where we need to become better at managing our money and empowering ourselves financially. For that we say thank you God for your blessing – “Om”.
I was blessed to grow up in a family where education and middle-class Indian values were emphasized constantly. My family understood the value of resources and how to manage the resources more efficiently and effectively. This knowledge was passed on in my family in the traditional parent to child format. Its tough for me to forget these lessons learnt. A child benefits financially because the child’s parents and grandparents have sacrificed so that a child may live a privileged life
As I grew up I was privileged to study in VJTI – a great engineering college in Bombay. I was privileged to receive the high quality education which allowed me to start my career as computer/software engineer using technology to create banking solutions for Oracle where I understood principles of finance from world class professionals. I stayed on to work with them for 23+ years.
I love technology, I love creating things, I love managing resources, I love living a good life – all essential ingredients for baking a tasty cake called Omfiniti.
So I believe that my family values combined with my love for technology and passion for personal finance culminated in a start up that now wants to make society a happier place and spread prosperity and optimism. I invite you all to help me make the world a happier place.
