I can confidently tell that "Investement Insights" is the Number#1 Financial Education Tamil UA-cam channel. Good Job Mr.Vijay Mohan. Keep enlightening us with your Financial Wisdom.
I am 47 and was on a FIRE journey and achieved it this year. I discovered your channel recently. Your contents have validated my plans. Your presentation and contribution is amazing. You are doing a great work. Keep it up.
I retired last year. Fairly comfortably off. Have never invested in stocks. But have 3-4 random MF investments done earlier. Your channel came across my way a week ago and I am impressed with your presentations. Today I downloaded an MF mobile app and started a SIP into an index fund.
I'm into 30's and this is such an eye opener brother...Thanks a lot ! I have shared it with few of my friends and your channel needs a wide reach to make our TN youngsters focus on their retirement/wealth management path ! :)
Looking into all your videos sir… I am working in canada the mistake which others make I did the same (buying plot in India ) and fall into loan trap… now struggling to pay… even from mba finance background, I had fear of loosing so moved of stock market… now the share which I sold in loss are almost three times appreciated…thanks for the brief sections it’s like eye opener for me…
Liked the quote from the video "We overestimate what can be done in short term.. we underestimate what we can do in long term". Very true not just for finances but life in general.
Sir, I am Sure that your effort will change many people financial life. Now I am 35 after seeing your videos it really motivates me to do FIRE plan for my smooth retirement life and the way you explaining amount investments is superb. That too in TAMIL . May god bless you for good health and long live.
Thank you again. One of the things anyone has to do in their lives is to understand their strengths and weaknesses. If your strength is career growth and ability to move up because you have something special in you then work with it. If that is not the case don’t fight it. Understand your forte (strength) because everyone is gifted with something special. For example, some are abstract thinkers and can naturally gravitate to understanding how economies work, how things work in a work place, how money moves and how companies are created/destroyed etc. these are folks who can over time connect the dots and understand the big picture. These people are gifted in their own way to win and that comes very handy in wealth creation. Why do I say the above is that most people who work will NOT be able to tell you what $ amount at what age is your goal. Most people are clueless when asked this simple question. It looks simple for a person who is abstract in thinking but very hard for many others. This question just needs a few things: 1) what is your age and what is your earnings and savings potential? Also, if you can project future increase in salary, that helps but much of that increase is usually eaten up by inflation and lifestyle creep. 2) realistically, how long do you think you will have a job in the work force. 3) many will tell you they know math, but many can’t apply it. They can’t sit down and say - this is what I save a year, I will be able to work for say another 20 years safely and for example at 50, I want to be worth say $3m (with no home loans, college education loans and other liabilities). Above is just an example. With these handy , one can pick the funds that will get you to $3m at 50. You will be surprised how many can tell this - save Y$/year, for 20 years to reach $3m at 50. Most will fail and will be lost in the weeds.. 4) one has to internalize within themselves what $amount you need at a certain age. If you don’t do it, you will work forever and corporate America or India is happy to use you. Sadly, you will end up being a loser because there is no guarantee for jobs beyond 55 and you will be helpless as you age and don’t have something to show for. It is scary there are so many in this camp. 5) once you have a number, you can find the yearly returns you need to hit that goal. Then assuming a 4% withdrawal rate per year , 3$m at 55 will allow you to draw 120k$/yearly and live a comfortable life without draining the capital before you die. Without a goal, you won’t go anywhere. Without sacrifices, you will never reach financial liberation. Without a strategy, you will always be restless, worried and increasingly desperate as you age. Remember, jobs are NOT forever. You will be kicked out of the workforce when you are least ready. Better be ready with a plan and strategy to liberate yourself. And the good part is that it is doable by all. Most don’t have a $ goal, a plan and a strategy to get there. See if you can be one of those who can do the above. Start with a $ goal and an plan and strategy and invest in index funds to match your goal. You will WIN.
best advice I had received.... "1. When you have a plan then only you could understand if you had deviated from the plan" "2. Track your expense with a simple excel" .. i never used to make a plan this two sentence changed my life...
தமிழில் பதிவிட்டமைக்கு நன்றி, உங்கள் அனுபவத்தை இவாரு பகிர்ந்துகொள்ள வேண்டும் என்ற எண்ணம் உண்மையில் மெய்சிலுகிறது Thanks for your golden words. The most precious thing is knowledge that which given to next generation. Hats off
Hi Vijay Sir. thanks for your information and support. i have tracking my monthly expense and saving. this month only i am entering to stock market. i am invested in equity stock. from your video i plan to invest in index fund and your are changing my financial goal. it is very useful for me take next level. my family also double salary. somehow i follow your idea without having tracking. now i will do. finally your such a great person to explain our financial planning to all. god will support you in all time. take care
I have not done any investment in share market until now. It was very interesting to listen to your speech. I noticed that you have a very good articulation skill, because you include many words and statements which has local flavor. I am 45 now. Thinking how to start this after listening to your video's. Probably you be an motivational speaker as well. All the best. 👍
superb vidoes and worth their weight in gold. Finance is not the strength of many average Indians. I am so surprised you are reaching all this life lessons for common man for free. excellent work. keep going and our support is always there for you 🙏🙏🙏
Recently I have been following the FIRE concept a lot. I'm part of some groups in Reddit where they discuss these topics in detail. But, most of them are either NRIs or foreigners. I don't know if this is possible in India considering the healthcare and other expenses "cultural expenses" like grand marriage for a daughter, Child education. If ur in a joint family the expectations are way different. Thanks for this video, this gives a good insight about FIRE.
Question - How do you track your long-term expenses and think of FIRE, when you have a huge mortgage to pay off for the next two decades and that is going to take up all your future earnings ? Kindly explain in a separate video, if possible. Thank you
Nice sir yesterday onwards I've started watching your videos. I've little bit knowledge in stock market but I never invested. But now I'm interesting. Thank you
Happen to stumble upon one of your videos and watched most of your videos. Super information and well explained on all parts. Enaku pudicha maathri pesringa. Nalla motivate um aaguthu. My age is 24 and my income is 60K. I have decided to invest in index funds from now on. Thanks for the advice. Hopefully, I will msg you after 10 years and tell my status. 😀
I think I'm watching this video at the right time. I'm 31 now. Started my stocks investment a year back. Now after watching your videos I aware of Index funds. Sir, can you pls tell us the best way for monthly income schemes/funds or any other formats to achive that. Thanks in advance. 🙏
Viraivaga fire thotamaiku vaalthukkal. I'm not gonna ask you to make more videos per week, infact I'm watching your videos more times to catch-up. It's all lessons. Thanks for doing this in Tamil.
Hi sir, my life is not as stressful as of now. I love all your videos, it is very useful. But the feeling that, seeing these videos and not able to implement them in my life due to financial situations is very painfull.
As a women without proper education with low income I'm trying so hard to save money and make my money work for me but my uneducated mind totally refusing to understand this share market last 2 weeks only I'm started to learn about this with the support of your videos But now my confusion is which share is best to invest there is sooooooooooooooo many options plz suggest me some shares I'm 37 at this age it's hard to me select few shares form this so many options
Sir, All of your videos are very informative. Thanks for sharing all valuable information on the public forum. I know nothing about investment but now I own few shares after watching your video. Thanks. I've few queries is there way I can ask my question.
One more cool Video.... thank you.... If possible please explain about ETF and how they are differ from index mutual fund ...... things to consider to choose our suitable one from the list....
Already read Rich Dad Poor dad in Tamil. Ordered The Millionaire next door. Can some one refer me the tamil edition please. Because mukiyamana arivu saarndha padipu thaai mozhi la padicha dhan namaku nalla puriyum.
Dear Mr. Vijay, Thanks for your many advise /suggestions for financial investment and management. I have recently only came across your channel. I have achieved the FIRE at the age of 50. Now I am doing 65. My major assets are in real estate. I have pension and passive income from my real estate. And have also some funds invested in the form of FD in the bank. And have some investment in the physical form of gold. Am I going in the right direction? or I need to tweak my part/major investment in real estate to stocks? As of now I don't have much stock exposure. Your expert advise will help me to fine-tune my investment plans.
As you are already retired and your passive income is good enough for your monthly expenses, there is really no need to change anything. If you would like equity exposure, invest not more than 20% of your total portfolio in an Index fund.
Thanks your videos are very helpful for learning about planning our finances, which is something we would have ignored otherwise. I have few doubts 1.why does the stock market increases each year. Like the inflation happens because govt prints more currency notes which could reduce the value. But why does the stock increase. Is it because as years go by more people get intrested and invest into the market or does the company makes profit and put that into stocks or something like this.
Hi sir, please talk about PACL scam!!! No one in tamil spoke about it... People like 80s born had invested in it and now company is no more...its similar to what you have spoken in this video. It would be welcomed when people start to bring awareness to such companies.
One question sir, I had wonderful plans in 2007 when I entered stock market. 2008 devastating, all my investments went to drain. Even to date GMR . I sold lot of stocks in 2013 at 70% loss. Until then the only other investment was PF, ULIP. From 2012 to till date, bought land, 2 houses, 1 sold and building another one now. I started MF SIP in 2017 which is also redeemed for building new house. The only other house I settling to my sister. With new house loan got a liability (age 40 😀) . Until then I was confident that I would retire and was happily telling to my colleagues. I had to buy a house on necessity and was a causious decision only , thinking I have good backup. But now I am staring at another 10 yrs of work to close the loan. I am confused what I am supposed do, let's say I have 50% of monthly savings , should I start another set of SIPs of should I be concentrating on closing the home loan ASAP ? My wife is also working, but she doesn't participate in financial planning but yes she does contribution of monthly expenses.

Thank you for your insights. i have truly enjoyed watching your videos and understanding what my FI goals are really sets me free to live my life. One suggestion - would it be possible to collate all your excel files in a easy discoverable way. Its quite hard to figure out which excel template is linked in what video. Thanks!
Hello sir, very insightful video. Hearing investment insights in mother tongue provides a fresh perspective. I am curious, you have attached a spreadsheet for tracking expenses. Is there a specific reason for that? Have you tried Mint, NerdWallet, YNAB etc for tracking and budgeting? Any reason for not recommending or using them? Keep the videos coming, very refreshing to hear investment insights in colloquial Tamil.
Spreadsheet is for customized tracking. I like my spreadsheet. You are right. Mint totally serves that purpose. Not sure if it is available in India though.
Sir Could you help us , How to choose stocks in which basis (US stocks)? you can give us some example stock from your portfolio , it will help us to understand more easier !
I have the below question on FIRE and calculating net worth, I hope you can clarify this for me. Can we consider the child education savings as assets? If so, how do we plan for FIRE, if we know few years down the line we will withdraw the money we have in child education savings. Wouldn’t it bring down our net worth? And reduce the 25X we had before taking the retirement decision?
@@InvestmentInsightsTamil Thank you for your prompt reply. I have gone through many of your other videos where you have covered the financial basics and planning for people in US and in India. I wonder if you could also cover the planning for people who move to US temporarily on visa (e.g. 6 years) and go back to India. They will have certain unique attributes like money in 401k while they were earning in US, real-estate and housing loan in India etc. It will be a good series to cover, given your expertise in both parts of the world.
Hello Vijay Sir , I just came across your channel this week! As everyone says, i felt like wasted years! FIRE is my dream ! I am 41 yrs old currently in US. Invested in real estate in india , now generating monthly income, and do not have any outstanding debts. Already maxed out by 401k,IRA for myself and my working wife. I was thinking to sell one of the assets in india and invest it in US index funds so it could grow exponentially for the next 10-20 yrs as i think the return will be much more than passive income . Pls share your thoughts on this approach.
Sir inflation rate ah neenka include pannaveh illa. Avg inflation is around 7.5% in india. So nearly in 13 years annual expense also will double. You didn't talk about it at all.
Sir to invest in index fund directly will i need a demat account . Also is sip best or lumpsum investment best. Can you put a video on how to invest in index fund directly.
sir pls explain: etf vs index funds. which is better for longterm wealth creation. and etfs are not getting dividends but index funds do. so index funds will grow faster?
There is no difference. They both are different versions offered for our convenience. We can choose Index Funds (mutual fund) for long term. ETFs are created more for trading in real time. For long term investing, Index funds is more suitable. Dividends - it depends on the type of fund. They either reinvest the dividends or pay it back to the fund holders. ETFs normally do not have the reinvestment option and so they will pay as cash every quarter or annual depending on the ETF.
With 70x or 100x equivalent, people can settle in US rather than India. We need to consider developing ecomony like india return more than US. I consider return in india 12% rather than 8%.
It allows as long as we are reporting in our tax filing. Bigger question is which fund house offers to open the account for US NRI. Check this out: www.fincash.com/l/mutual-fund-houses-that-allow-usa-canada-nris-to-invest-in-india
Great content as usual Vijay!❤️ I've a doubt, can u pls tell the difference between ETF and index funds, and which is preferred for long term investment..And index funds are provided by many companies which is like other active funds with different exp.ratio..as they're simply tracking index going with the one with less exp.ratio is good right?
You can see ETF as an actively traded Index fund. That is all. Traders prefer ETF. For long term investment, go with Index fund. Going with lowest expense ratio should be good enough for us. Many consider lot other parameters. But lets keep it simple here.
Thanks so much Vijay!☺️ Like your story my close friends also laugh/ignore me if I talk/ask about the investments and future plans.. Finally got a friend to whom I can ask my financial doubts..❤️
Hi Bro, In your calculations you used 10 as your current value and after 12.5 year it became 45. The growth is 4.5times right? Can you please correct me if I am wrong?
Vijay I have this doubt on Index investment.. what if the index of us or india nifty behaves like japan where the previous best is still not broken which happened in 1980s. I am missing something I guess
Well to start with, what happened in Japan's Index is not necessarily a bad thing. It was at 6500 in 1980 and went up to 38,700 in 1990 (6 times in 10 yrs). and then reached bottom again at 8000 in 2009. Since then it has climbed up to 28,300 now. If someone has invested ONLY at the peak of 1990, they would not have recovered yet. But what is the chance of a person investing only in 1990 peak in the last 40 years? I would say NONE. People would have kept buying as the index was coming down and now enjoying the ride going up. Lesson for us is, just keep buying the index - not worrying about the market movement. That "Dollar Cost Averaging" will take care of the aberrance like this. (www.macrotrends.net/2593/nikkei-225-index-historical-chart-data) Now - what is the chance of this happening in India or in US market? Not impossible, but less likely. I am an optimist. I will be prepared for the worst. But will hope for the best.
sir i already started to invest in nifty100 index fund. but u suggest to buy nifty50. should i change to nifty50 or continue nifty100? pls suggest me ur view.
I can confidently tell that "Investement Insights" is the Number#1 Financial Education Tamil UA-cam channel. Good Job Mr.Vijay Mohan. Keep enlightening us with your Financial Wisdom.
I agree, there are couple of channel making daily market reviews, which is not worth for making a investment journey

"Exponential thinking" - Secret ingredient revealed by Vijay sir. ✌️
உங்கள் பணி தமிழக மக்களுக்கு அவசியமானது. Thanks Lot.
Liked the quote from the video "We overestimate what can be done in short term.. we underestimate what we can do in long term".
Very true not just for finances but life in general.
Seriously this channel deserve more hand off sir🙌
Sir,
I am Sure that your effort will change many people financial life. Now I am 35 after seeing your videos it really motivates me to do FIRE plan for my smooth retirement life and the way you explaining amount investments is superb. That too in TAMIL . May god bless you for good health and long live.
Thank you again. One of the things anyone has to do in their lives is to understand their strengths and weaknesses. If your strength is career growth and ability to move up because you have something special in you then work with it. If that is not the case don’t fight it. Understand your forte (strength) because everyone is gifted with something special.

And the good part is that it is doable by all. Most don’t have a $ goal, a plan and a strategy to get there. See if you can be one of those who can do the above. Start with a $ goal and an plan and strategy and invest in index funds to match your goal. You will WIN.

Account for mortgage payments as part of your expenses. Anything that goes out of your bank account should be accounted in your annual expenses needs.
Teaching the secrets to win is not an easy thing... hats of you Vijay 👍👍👍.

Dear Mr. Vijay, Thanks for your many advise /suggestions for financial investment and management. I have recently only came across your channel. I have achieved the FIRE at the age of 50. Now I am doing 65. My major assets are in real estate. I have pension and passive income from my real estate. And have also some funds invested in the form of FD in the bank. And have some investment in the physical form of gold. Am I going in the right direction? or I need to tweak my part/major investment in real estate to stocks? As of now I don't have much stock exposure. Your expert advise will help me to fine-tune my investment plans.
As you are already retired and your passive income is good enough for your monthly expenses, there is really no need to change anything. If you would like equity exposure, invest not more than 20% of your total portfolio in an Index fund.
@@InvestmentInsightsTamil Thanks Mr. Vijay for your kind advise. I was thinking of investing around 30-35 % of my funds apart from liquid funds.
@@professordr.soundar9839 As long as you are aware of the risks involved in equity investing, that % is totally OK.
Thanks your videos are very helpful for learning about planning our finances, which is something we would have ignored otherwise.
I have few doubts
1.why does the stock market increases each year. Like the inflation happens because govt prints more currency notes which could reduce the value. But why does the stock increase. Is it because as years go by more people get intrested and invest into the market or does the company makes profit and put that into stocks or something like this.
Watch the "Share market explained" and "Compounding in Business" episodes to understand that better.
@@InvestmentInsightsTamil Thanks, will do...
Hi sir, please talk about PACL scam!!!
No one in tamil spoke about it...
People like 80s born had invested in it and now company is no more...its similar to what you have spoken in this video.
It would be welcomed when people start to bring awareness to such companies.
I have no idea what that is. I will look into that.
One question sir, I had wonderful plans in 2007 when I entered stock market. 2008 devastating, all my investments went to drain. Even to date GMR . I sold lot of stocks in 2013 at 70% loss. Until then the only other investment was PF, ULIP. From 2012 to till date, bought land, 2 houses, 1 sold and building another one now. I started MF SIP in 2017 which is also redeemed for building new house. The only other house I settling to my sister. With new house loan got a liability (age 40 😀) . Until then I was confident that I would retire and was happily telling to my colleagues. I had to buy a house on necessity and was a causious decision only , thinking I have good backup. But now I am staring at another 10 yrs of work to close the loan. I am confused what I am supposed do, let's say I have 50% of monthly savings , should I start another set of SIPs of should I be concentrating on closing the home loan ASAP ? My wife is also working, but she doesn't participate in financial planning but yes she does contribution of monthly expenses.
It is totally personal choice. Depending on the interest rate on the home loan, may be paying off that makes more sense to me.

உங்கள் வயது 60 என்பதால் 60% Debt Fund இல் வைத்து கொள்வது நல்லது. ஆனால் நீங்கள் நினைப்பது போல் 50% மோசம் ஒன்றும் இல்லை. நீங்கள் அதையே செய்யலாம்.
நீங்கள் சொல்கிற அந்த 5% STP from Debt to Equity எனக்கு புரியவில்லை. உங்கள் முதலீடு ஏற்கனவே Debt:Equity 50:50 ஆக இருக்கிறதா? இல்லை இனிமேல் தான் அந்த allocation ku மாற்ற போகிறீர்களா?

Thank you for your insights. i have truly enjoyed watching your videos and understanding what my FI goals are really sets me free to live my life. One suggestion - would it be possible to collate all your excel files in a easy discoverable way. Its quite hard to figure out which excel template is linked in what video. Thanks!
Hello sir, very insightful video. Hearing investment insights in mother tongue provides a fresh perspective. I am curious, you have attached a spreadsheet for tracking expenses. Is there a specific reason for that? Have you tried Mint, NerdWallet, YNAB etc for tracking and budgeting? Any reason for not recommending or using them? Keep the videos coming, very refreshing to hear investment insights in colloquial Tamil.
Spreadsheet is for customized tracking. I like my spreadsheet. You are right. Mint totally serves that purpose. Not sure if it is available in India though.
Really thanks for your information and support.
Thanks for UA-cam for recommending this video
Sir Could you help us , How to choose stocks in which basis (US stocks)? you can give us some example stock from your portfolio , it will help us to understand more easier !

Vanakam, Thanks for you insights.....! Awaiting for next video
Nice video sir, Awaiting for ur next video sir..
I have the below question on FIRE and calculating net worth, I hope you can clarify this for me.
Can we consider the child education savings as assets?
If so, how do we plan for FIRE, if we know few years down the line we will withdraw the money we have in child education savings. Wouldn’t it bring down our net worth? And reduce the 25X we had before taking the retirement decision?
When we know that we will be withdrawing the money for child education, it is better to exclude that from our calculation.
@@InvestmentInsightsTamil Thank you for your prompt reply.
I have gone through many of your other videos where you have covered the financial basics and planning for people in US and in India. I wonder if you could also cover the planning for people who move to US temporarily on visa (e.g. 6 years) and go back to India. They will have certain unique attributes like money in 401k while they were earning in US, real-estate and housing loan in India etc. It will be a good series to cover, given your expertise in both parts of the world.
Hello Vijay Sir , I just came across your channel this week! As everyone says, i felt like wasted years! FIRE is my dream ! I am 41 yrs old currently in US. Invested in real estate in india , now generating monthly income, and do not have any outstanding debts. Already maxed out by 401k,IRA for myself and my working wife. I was thinking to sell one of the assets in india and invest it in US index funds so it could grow exponentially for the next 10-20 yrs as i think the return will be much more than passive income . Pls share your thoughts on this approach.
It is all personal preference. If you do not have at least 60% of your total portfolio in equity, then yeah, it makes sense to me.

Waiting for your video on Index funds !!
Nice explanation. Sir already investing in nifty index funds in sip mode. To achieve FIRE, do i need to invest lump sum or sip?
SIP itself is good. Whenever you have money investing, just keep buying the index.
Sir inflation rate ah neenka include pannaveh illa. Avg inflation is around 7.5% in india. So nearly in 13 years annual expense also will double. You didn't talk about it at all.
Direct plan invest panuvathu eppadi. Yara approach pananum nu sollunga
Reach out to the fund house directly, like UTI. Or you can go with brokerages that offer direct funds like Groww or Kuvera.
Would like to know are you living in USA or in India after your retirement ?
Nice Video. Greetings from Srilanka
Sir to invest in index fund directly will i need a demat account . Also is sip best or lumpsum investment best. Can you put a video on how to invest in index fund directly.
You don't need a Demat for investing it directly. Watch the latest two Index Fund episodes to understand it better.

super sir very use fully iam net video wait
Sir below the links are very useful for fire plan
sir pls explain: etf vs index funds. which is better for longterm wealth creation. and etfs are not getting dividends but index funds do. so index funds will grow faster?
There is no difference. They both are different versions offered for our convenience. We can choose Index Funds (mutual fund) for long term. ETFs are created more for trading in real time. For long term investing, Index funds is more suitable. Dividends - it depends on the type of fund. They either reinvest the dividends or pay it back to the fund holders. ETFs normally do not have the reinvestment option and so they will pay as cash every quarter or annual depending on the ETF.
@@InvestmentInsightsTamil well explained sir. Nandrigal. 🙏

Sir iam 27 years old and investing in Nifty next 50 and Nasdaq index funds. I would like to invest for 33 more years. Am i in right path ?
Yes... keep investing.
Which platform to invest apps ?
Great insights ✨👍🏻
Excellent useful video catch and clean
With 70x or 100x equivalent, people can settle in US rather than India. We need to consider developing ecomony like india return more than US. I consider return in india 12% rather than 8%.
Your assumptions. Your numbers. Your planning. Your calculator. Do what you think is good for you.
I learned compounding when I was 25, now I have 1,250x.
👏🏽
Sir,
How can NRIs residing in the US invest in mutual funds in India? Does new FATCA rules allow that?
It allows as long as we are reporting in our tax filing. Bigger question is which fund house offers to open the account for US NRI. Check this out: www.fincash.com/l/mutual-fund-houses-that-allow-usa-canada-nris-to-invest-in-india
sari oru like potutu video paporm !
Awesome sir 🙏👌👌
Great content as usual Vijay!❤️ I've a doubt, can u pls tell the difference between ETF and index funds, and which is preferred for long term investment..And index funds are provided by many companies which is like other active funds with different exp.ratio..as they're simply tracking index going with the one with less exp.ratio is good right?
You can see ETF as an actively traded Index fund. That is all. Traders prefer ETF. For long term investment, go with Index fund. Going with lowest expense ratio should be good enough for us. Many consider lot other parameters. But lets keep it simple here.
Thanks so much Vijay!☺️ Like your story my close friends also laugh/ignore me if I talk/ask about the investments and future plans.. Finally got a friend to whom I can ask my financial doubts..❤️

Hi Bro,
In your calculations you used 10 as your current value and after 12.5 year it became 45. The growth is 4.5times right? Can you please correct me if I am wrong?
No. It started at 2X.
Vijay I have this doubt on Index investment.. what if the index of us or india nifty behaves like japan where the previous best is still not broken which happened in 1980s. I am missing something I guess
Well to start with, what happened in Japan's Index is not necessarily a bad thing. It was at 6500 in 1980 and went up to 38,700 in 1990 (6 times in 10 yrs). and then reached bottom again at 8000 in 2009. Since then it has climbed up to 28,300 now. If someone has invested ONLY at the peak of 1990, they would not have recovered yet. But what is the chance of a person investing only in 1990 peak in the last 40 years? I would say NONE. People would have kept buying as the index was coming down and now enjoying the ride going up. Lesson for us is, just keep buying the index - not worrying about the market movement. That "Dollar Cost Averaging" will take care of the aberrance like this. (www.macrotrends.net/2593/nikkei-225-index-historical-chart-data)
Now - what is the chance of this happening in India or in US market? Not impossible, but less likely. I am an optimist. I will be prepared for the worst. But will hope for the best.
Thank you so much for detailed response Vijay.. It is much useful.. Appreciate it.. 👍🙏

What do you mean by fire path Sir
Path to achieve "Financial Independence and Retire Early" (FIRE).
Can we buy NFO funds or wait for fund size
There is no need to buy a NFO when there is already an established fund in the market.
