      Dear K Balaji, May I know why did you copy paste the original post of dear Kavitha in the initial & later on put your own nos. at the end?

      Regarding that 9-12% gtd. return. No, not possible. No such instruments is there where you can get 9-12% Gtd. return for next 25-30 years.

      Regarding your goals – Well Kids marriage is there but education is not. Why? Interestingly education of your kids is in your hands but marriage is not. 🙂

      Please think over it again.

      Can you calculate a no. or define what’s healthy retirement life?

      I’m sorry in advance if you feel my post irritating. I want to help you hence questioning so much to you.

      Thanks

         Hi..
         i have gone through various post regarding in this forum and may insurance forum questions and answers. Even I had a discussion with polciy bazzar guys and met them and got to know various insurance policies.. as soon as i get to know any policy from them i checked the review in jagoinvestor forum and whatever i am getting is negative feedback…say Brila vision, Tata AIG, LIC jeevan saral.. even PPF etc.. i am confused wether to go for pure term policy or regular life insurance with high value SA. Many forums i have seen your reply hence your reply is not irritated..me but i want a solution for me to get my financial planning to achieve my goal.
         since kavita’s option seems match most of the query i ahve take the same with additional input of mine.

            Dear K Balaji, thanks for the clarification. For investment oriented policies, I can understand the negative feedback either on this forum or elsewhere but for PPF? I’m not sure for which post you are referring to?

            Coming back to your query. A High value sum assured in an investment oriented plan, the prem. amount ‘ll be very huge & resultant benefit in terms of return generated on your money ‘ll be very less. So my take is please do not go for bundle product. Opt simple things. Purchase Term plan & invest in PPf & FDs & MFs.

            Thanks

               Dear K Balaji, Are you suffering with any illness as on date? What are you afraid of your medical? Please go for a term plan as per your need & not as per the prem. or for any random no?

               Regarding SIP v/s MF, My dear friend, SIP – Systematic Investment Plan is a disciplined way to invest in MFs itself. So there is no such thing as SIP is safer than MF.

               Please devote time to read past queries. A lot of knowledge is waiting for you there.

               Thanks

      Dear Kavitha, you may invest on mly basis in Post Office RD, Banks’ RD, Pure Debt MFs, Hybrid MFs (Debt + Eq. mix), Pure Eq. funds….

      There are so many options. What to do now? Well first of all please check your own position & your requirement & accordingly opt the vehicle.

      Thanks

   Dear Kavitha, many banks now a days offering around 9 or a bit more % interest on 10Y FDs & RDs. So as per your own understanding of gtd. returns you may invest in the same. Actually due to impact of Taxation & Inflation, your real return ‘ll be less than this 9% point. Now how much you are comfortable with this is up to you. A hint has been given to you by dear Ramesh already hence not repeating the same.

   Thanks

   Read more and understand things better.

   If you want guaranteed returns, then the rate of return will be less (sometimes, too less for you to achieve your goals). Only way then is either to increase your investment amount or decrease your goal expectations.

   If you want a higher rate of return, you need to take on risky investments.

   All investments have an inherent risk. eg:
   1. For equity based investment options, the risk is in front of you in terms of returns in short/medium terms.
   2. For debt funds, there are interest rate risks.
   3. For PPF, there is interest rate risk with illiquidity.
   4. For LIC and other endowment policies, there are return risk, the obviously low returns and illiquidity.
   etc.

   Add, inflation and tax risks to each of the above.

   So, read more, learn more.
