On this note, I am glad to share my first post on how a salaried people should aim at creating wealth. Let me clear it first. Putting money in savings account giving you 4% or 6% return does not count as an INVESTMENT, at least a smart investment. The interest you get is too nominal to make your dreams come true.
To create wealth, one just needs to channelize the resources at the right place. Be more organised. Be more disciplined. That’s it!!
Let me give you an example – How a monthly salary of Rs 75,000 can be structured which can help you in meeting financial needs (both long term and short term)?
So, plan your expenses and set a budget – before the salary is credited. This process is going to take some time, but down the line you’ll be more thankful. Clothes are not wealth. Money is wealth. Don’t forget it. Let’s assume the monthly expenses to be around Rs 25,000.
Now you are left with Rs 40,000 in hand to create money out of money. And trust me, this is not a small amount. So let me help you in channelize it
Soon the year will pass by, and you will have a lump-sum amount at your disposal. This fund can be used to meet your short term needs like home renovation, wedding preparations or a vacation. If not needed, simply renew the recurring and reinvest the amount.
In case you are ready to take risk, the equity market is wide open. You can either invest directly or through mutual funds. (And I firmly believe mutual fund investments are VERY subjective). Equity will help your wealth grow if you pick up investment opportunities strategically. One can invest Rs 25,000 to 30,000 (the chunk left) in a proportion of 75:25 between equity & debt.
To summarize, make money out of money by investing and re-investing. All you need to do is – create a diversified portfolio and review your investments periodically. So, get up and get into action. The earlier you act, the larger you make in returns Cheers, Mohit Arya
