Namaskara from Deepak!
I’m Deepak Suresh Konnur (ARN – 264511) – a Tech professional with over 18 years of experience in Software Quality Assurance, having worked with leading U.S.-based multinational companies.
My journey with investing began during my college days, thanks to the early influence of my father, who was actively involved in stocks and mutual funds. He often reminded me, “Your salary may meet your present needs, but what about life after retirement?” That one question sparked a lifelong interest in financial planning.
My mission is simple, to help individuals and families make mindful financial decisions – free from noise, pressure, or panic. Because true wealth isn’t just about numbers – it’s about peace of mind.
Over the years, I continued learning, investing, and sharing my insights – especially with colleagues at work. Many of them were investing based on TV tips or blindly following star-rated funds, chasing returns without understanding the risks involved. I took it upon myself to guide them, helping them move beyond hype and make informed, balanced decisions.
Some had never even heard of mutual funds. Some laughed, some questioned my views – but many appreciated the honest conversations and eventually trusted my suggestions. What mattered most was seeing them gain clarity and confidence in their financial decisions.
As word spread, more people started approaching me for help. I offered my time and knowledge freely – always with integrity, transparency, and a deep sense of responsibility. Some advice worked out exceptionally well, some didn’t – but I always emphasized the importance of understanding risks and aligning investments with life goals.
These experiences lit a spark in me. I realized this wasn’t just a hobby – it was a calling. The desire to help people take control of their financial futures, with clarity and calm, led to the creation of Mindful Wealth.
