Hi.

I’m Anshul Dixit.

I have over 15 years of experience in data analytics and program management. I have previously worked with Deloitte Consulting, Facebook, Amazon, and Saavn. Currently, I’m employed with Uber, managing some exciting analytics projects.

Though an engineer by degree, I’ve always had a keen interest in personal finance. Sometimes, I wonder if I should have opted for Commerce after my 10th boards!

I’m a creature of habit. If I were famous and someone wanted to assassinate me, they’d just need to follow my routine for a week!

I love to read. Most weekends, you’ll find me in a quiet corner of a coffee shop with a book in hand. Agatha Christie, Ruskin Bond, and PG Wodehouse are my favorite authors for fiction. As for non-fiction, while I read almost anything under the sun, I’m particularly drawn to history. You can check my book recommendations here.

I’m also a board game enthusiast. Quoridor^*, Rummikub^*, and Risk^* are my current favorites.

If I didn’t have to work for a living, and was rolling in money, I’d buy a cozy bungalow in a quiet, green part of the city, and turn it into a library cum coffee shop. Probably would also have hosted occasional board game evenings.

In the past, I started an online book rental service called BookWorms – and scaled it to ~600 paid members before shutting it down.

I also have a passion for collecting currency notes. Thanks to some incredible friends and colleagues, I’ve amassed notes from over 30 countries.
Fun fact: The oldest currency still in use is the British pound. It is 1200 years old, though it has evolved significantly in form over the centuries.

I write about personal finance, data analytics, productivity, and interesting facts/trivia, and document my personal opinions and experiences on this blog.
