The Museum of Lost Money: 3 Common Mistakes We All Make

Imagine walking through a museum. Each exhibit tells a story; not of art, but of money lost in everyday financial mistakes. Welcome to the Museum of Lost Money.
Every glass case holds a familiar tale. The kind you’ve lived through or know someone who has.

The good news? You don’t have to repeat them. Let’s walk through three of the most common exhibits.

Exhibit #1: The iPhone That Cost More Than Its Price Tag

The story:
They had ₹40,000 saved. The iPhone cost ₹1.3 lakh. Instead of waiting, they swiped on EMI. It looked harmless at ₹7,500/month. But interest charges quietly added up to ₹6,000 extra.

The lesson:
Impatience makes purchases more expensive. With a little planning and investing, that same money could’ve grown, and they could’ve gotten brand discounts on top. With Multipl, you don’t just buy smart, you plan smart.

Exhibit #2: The Europe Trip That Shrunk Into a Staycation

The story:
They saved ₹1.2 lakh for a Europe trip. Left it in a savings account for a year. It grew by just ₹3,300, barely enough for an airport coffee. Meanwhile, ticket prices soared. The dream shrank into a staycation.

The lesson:
Inflation and rising costs don’t wait. Parking money in savings feels safe, but it doesn’t grow. With Multipl, the same travel fund could’ve grown through mutual funds + unlocked brand discounts on flights and hotels. Dreams deserve fuel, not just storage.

Exhibit #3: The Home Office That Became a Plastic Chair

The story:
They set aside ₹45,000 for a home office setup. But the money sat idle for two years. Prices went up, and the ergonomic chair became unaffordable. What they got instead? A sore back and regret.

The lesson:
Saving isn’t enough when time erodes value. With Multipl, that same money could have grown into a budget big enough for the desk, chair, and more — with exclusive discounts from furniture partners.

The Takeaway: Don’t Let Your Money Become an Exhibit

Every mistake in the Museum of Lost Money has one thing in common: money wasn’t working as hard as it could.
That’s what Multipl fixes. By combining goal-based investing with brand discounts, you save smarter for what you want, whether it’s a phone, a trip, or a lifestyle upgrade.

Because your money deserves better than a glass case.
