Ans: Hi,

Congratulations on your early retirement. It is really good that you'll do freelance work for next 10 years to cover your monthly expenses of 60,000 rupees.
- If you will continue the SIP of 40k for upcoming 10 years, your total mutual fund corpus would become 2 crores.
- current stock portfolio needs to be safely moved to mutual funds as direct stock investment is very risky. it needs porper research and entry exit and any mistake can cause a huge drop in the numbers. kindly consider reallocating 50 lakhs into hybrid mutual funds.
- LIC maturities should be parked in a mix of debt and hybrid funds so as to create proper diversification wrt risk.
- Properties are good investment, can hold.

These can cover your expenses for next 20 years. Make sure to follow the right investment strategy.

However, to cover cost of higher education of your son, consider investing more wrt to that particular goal.

And it is extremely important for you to take an expert advice wrt your indivdual profile. Hence do consult a professional Certified Financial Planner - a CFP who can guide you with exact funds to invest in keeping in mind your age, requirements, financial goals and risk profile. A CFP periodically reviews your portfolio and suggest any amendments to be made, if required.

Ans: Hi Visu,

It is never a good idea to mix insurance and investment. Best would be to discontinue it immediately, take your money and invest in mutualfunds. Net LIC returns are never more than 5% annual, less than even a simple FD.

And for life cover, take a proper term insurance plan with no riders.
