I'm a cynical reviewer who's bored of the inane, the innocuous and the insipid...and words beginning with ''in''. I'm into too many things and yet, not enough of those that will make me lose weight. I have killed 12 mosquitoes in a 4 minute rapid session. I have successfully defended my trousers against street dogs. I have climbed my building's boundary wall, and scaled down the other side. I have had the most interesting of times, and the most boring of times. I've lived, I've loved, I've lost, I've won, I've cried, I've sighed. It's over, and it's not yet begun. Books, Investments,Trekking, Salsa dancing and generally lazing around.

Good article. I must say though that in the last year ULIP returns have been disappointing in comparison with mutual funds! Also how do you know how many units you have? Do you get a monthly notice?
