Sir I have completed my b.tech in food technology in 2018. I want to continue my education and pursue PhD in food technology. Would it be wise to go for MSC in food tech?..for personal reasons I can't go for m.tech outside my hometown as there are no Google colleges here that offer m.tech in food tech. Or should I apply for RRB NTPC exam. Would have gone for RRB JE but there is no place for a food tech graduate as far as I know. Do need your advice sir.
Ans: Thank you for getting in touch with me on Rediff Gurus. Deciding between pursuing an M.Sc. in food technology or applying for the RRB NTPC exam requires careful consideration of your career goals, personal circumstances, and long-term aspirations. I would suggest you set your priorities right. You should start looking for job prospects and career opportunities for food technology graduates in both academia and industry. There is a good demand for food technology professionals with advanced degrees in food technology; hence, evaluate whether pursuing a PhD or gaining work experience through government employment aligns better with your career goals. If your priority is to pursue a career in research, academia, or specialized roles in the food technology industry, pursuing an MSc and eventually a PhD may be the preferred path. On the other hand, if job stability, financial security, and government employment are your priorities, then exploring opportunities through the RRB NTPC exam may be more suitable today. By carefully evaluating your options and aligning your priorities with your goals and aspirations, you can make a decision that sets you on the path towards a fulfilling and rewarding career in food technology.

Hi, My name is Kunal, I am 38 years old and my wife is 30 years old. I will be retired at the age of 60. I have two kids, a boy(9 years) and a girl(3 years). My basic is 57000 and I get 3% annual increment on basic. My take home salary is 48000. I have PPF(12500/M), SSY(2000/M) and LIC(5850/M) and our monthly expenses around 20000. I want to buy a home, children's educational expenses and my retirement goals are 1 Cr. Can you give a valuable strategy, how and where to invest to get my all goals?
Ans: I presume you have endowment type life insurance policy from LIC, the returns from which are not up to the mark. If you can surrender it and take a term insurance plan then you can still save around 50K annually after factoring Term Plan premium of 20K pa, considering your current annual payment to LIC of ~70K. That translates to investible surplus of 4K + current monthly disposal income after expenses: 7K, So 11K SIP can be initiated. 4K SIP for 15 years will led to corpus of 22L+(13%return assumed) for daughter's education

If surrendering the LIC policy is not an option then you can still deploy the current balance of 7K + incremental disposable part of salary each year into a SIP for 22 years considering conservative return of 13% it can still build a retirement corpus of 1Cr+ as desired.

You can fund son's higher education through PPF but for daughter's education you need to hike investments in SSY also to 1.5L pa and for house you will need to find home loan(Use EPF partial withdrawal towards down payment)

Here it pertinent to note that you may need to increase your income in some way maybe either job change or spouse working so to have additional funds to invest for your goal fulfillment. Happy to help if you have any further queries.
