Hi, My name is Rahul Chauhan, I completed my B tech in civil engineering in 2023 now I want to start my career as Structural engineer but I have a one problem that I am not financially able to do Mtech in Structural engineering. So, I want to know will it create in my career as Structural design engineer?

Ans: To be an M.Tech is not essential for being a Structural Design Engineer. There are many B.E. & B.Tech who became famous structural Engineer only with graduation, on the contrary I know many who failed to be successful Structural Engineer even after being M.Tech Structures. Learn softwares like STAD PRO and practise continuously. Listen to the NPTEL lectures of Structural and Bridge Engineering delivered by the faculties of NITs and IITs. Never be depressed. I am always there for you. Just follow me here and join me in LINKEDIN. Take proper decisions. DECISIONS DECIDE THE DESTINY. Best of luck. GOD BLESS YOU. Professor...........................:)

Money
I am 40 years old teacher, having 40 lakhs in FD and 2 lakhs in NSC, no debt and having property around 70 lakhs (Father's shop). No liability as I am single child of my parents. I am financially stable or I need to accumulate wealth.
Ans: Hi,

Financial stability needs to be defined for each individual based on their own preferences and perceptions.

You are a teacher and I assume you will continue your profession until retirement, this gives you opportunity to earn and save for future.

Your current investments are in a fixed income instruments which have the potential to only meet inflation needs for that amount. That means your money though increased over time will be having same purchasing power as it is today.
The property value in the future is a bit of difficult to estimate as it depends on many uncontrollable factors.
Hence we cannot determine if these amounts in the future are going to be able to meet your requirements without understanding your goals.

The approach you should follow is to look at what are your goals/requirements in life - during your working life and after retirement. This will require analysis of your current expenses and future goals to arrive at a corpus number.

A CFP can help you understand, plan and achieve this with a holistic financial plan. You will be provided with options and alternatives that are available and based on your profile/preferences, you will know what and how it can be achieved.
I recommend you take guidance form a CFP towards a holistic financial plan.

Thanks & Regards
