My 9-year-old daughter always has a stuffy nose, even though she is active and eats well. Could her outdoor play in the evening be contributing to this, or is there another underlying cause? What could be the potential reasons for her persistent stuffy nose? Are there any safe medications or treatments that would help? Should I encourage her to play indoors, or would wearing a mask when playing outdoors help?

Ans: It is most probably allergic rhinitis due to the weather and pollution. Another cause could be enlarged adenoids. You will need to get her checked by her pediatrician who may advise X rays and blood tests. She will most probably need steroid spray intra nasally.

Hi , I am 40 years married and have one child residing in Bangalore. I have 30 lakh in PPF , 32 lakh in PF and 15 Lakh in MF and around 40 Lakh in Shares. A flat in different city of value around 60 lakh I have two emi for total 67000 per month running for next 3 years. Rent is 35k per month. Income around 3 lakh per month. I am planning to buy flat , 2.1 cr taking loan 1.5 cr for 20 years. Remaining 60 lakh as personal financing for flat purchase with income for next 2 years. Please advise what I can do to manage my finance and build corpus for saving as well
Ans: Hello;

Your monthly expenses:
Current EMIs: 67000
New EMI: ~133000
Rent: 35000
Household expenses:~ 50000
Total monthly Expense: 285000
Total monthly Income:~ 300000

You have hardly any income left for investments.

If I would have been in your place, I would have settled earlier loans before venturing into a new home loan, using part of the savings.

Also I would have sold the flat in other city and used the sale proceeds towards down payment of new house purchase.

This will ensure that my current investments remain mostly untouched(except loan prepayment).

I get exemption from long term capital gain arising from sale of old flat since reinvested into new residence(As per provisions of ITax Act).

My EMI burden will be much lesser and I can invest aggressively in mutual funds and NPS for:
1. Kid higher education &
2. Retirement

This was my perspective.

You may have different approach but key is to ensure reasonable amount of debt so that you have disposable income left for investments towards
future goals.

Happy Investing;
