The Journey of 10 part Plan F show (and youtube links)

In this post we want to share our great experience till now working with CNBC 18 and DSP BlackRock Mutual Funds team on the show Plan F. We have been involved with the whole process from start. Me and Nandish keep going to CNBC Office every alternate week to shoot for our part which comes at end of each episode.

Shooting of CNBC show plan F

What you can learn from Each Episode ?

All the 10 episodes have been aired and we have got all kind of reviews about them, what was good, what could be improved, which part audience are liking and what they are not liking. I tell all of them that no one episode can fit someone’s expectations, but it surely has deep learnings for everyone. In one way or other one can surely learn from each episode’s. I am not talking about the numbers discussed or their portfolio, but from each episode’s case study financial life journey.

For example – in 5th episode, Mr Subodh Khare shares how he wants to make his daughter financially wise and wants to give them around Rs 50 lacs so that they can shape their life from there in a more powerful way.

In 2nd episode Sreekumari shared how she is operating from Financial Freedom and how she has already taken so many right decisions.

In 3rd episode Ramakumar shares, how all his life, he used 2nd income in family (his spouse income) only and only for saving and now he is almost financially free.

If you look at each episode, write down what is that one learning you can draw from the episode and you can take some actions to improve it. If you listen to IFA’s, they analyse the portfolio and give some 2-3 core insights they can think about. Either Me or Nandish give 3 tips of the week for all investors which you can apply to your financial life.

Got my email id wrong in the previous post…
I have always believed in mutual funds and i am happy when the market is down as that is an opportunity for me to accumulate more units so that i reap benefits later as its cyclic. The key is to pick the right fund and keep a tab on the performance. Just a suggestion for PlanF – While discussing the Plan it would be great if the experts suggest some names of fund , Term insurance policies, Health insurance policies with reasons why they are being recommended. That becomes more educative than just saying that one needs to invest more in MF, buy Term insurance and Health Insurance.
When your guest says his goal is to accumulate 50 Lakhs to cover his childs education and marriage goals where the goal period is 25 years from now, would it not be great if the experts advise if the Goal value is appropriate or not and suggest what or how to arrive at a goal value. These are my thoughts….

I saw all episodes but for the last. The advise is same in all the cases, but relevant all the same.

However, the issue is not the advise itself. The implementation, rather the resolve to implement, resolve to improve oneself, is the driver which can propel one into a path of becomming wealthy. For this one has to understand the financial concepts, understand ones goals and prepare a road map to achieve the same. This road map is to be made by self and not thrust upon by some consultant.

This way, I feel one can achieve one’s goals.

Good program. Congratulations JI team for nice work in investor education.

You are right! Even , now days i am against those who give advise to everybody to invest in MF…..MF/ Equities are very risk, and the managers who manage the portfolio are not god…finding a good MF (and getting good return) is pure luck , no brain involved

I think investment to be done in Mutual Funds thriugh SIP only not LumpSum and do not STOP SIP during lean phase also. should have long term Goal ie More than 5 years then only You can see Good Returns from MF Product.
Even ULIP also will give Good Return if you opt for low Premium and do Top Up more then only you will get good return , Since for any TOP UP Charges will be Less and at the same time Since Low Premium (Less than 18000 pa) will not disturb your portfolio , Still ULIP is not advisable due to front loading charges

I have watched your seventh episode today.
Kavitha sharma invested 90% of her fund in Real estate and Gold. Only one Insurance policy and perhaps no medical insurance. She has no debt.
It is good that she is not in the share market MF trap where the Fund manager, Fund house and the DP will make money at your cost. My unit linked policy with ING Vysya and Bajaj are 30% down . So far I lost more than 30000/-. The fund is not coming up at least to a level where I can surrender it without any loss.
I saw a Smart and cheerful Kavita sharma..Let her happiness stays always Lord.. Let no one give her wrog advise against her convictions and beliefs.
