I am 21 yrs old i want to invest 40 to 50 000 per month in mutual funds, i want to invest for min 20 yrs kundly suggest mutual funds Arnav p

Ans: It's impressive that you're thinking about investing at such a young age. Here's a suggestion for your monthly investment in mutual funds:
• Diversified Equity Funds: Since you have a long investment horizon of at least 20 years, you can consider investing a significant portion of your monthly amount in diversified equity funds. These funds invest across various sectors and market capitalizations, offering growth potential over the long term.
• Large Cap Funds: Allocate a portion of your investment to large-cap funds, which invest in well-established and financially stable companies. These funds provide stability to your portfolio while offering steady returns over time.
• Mid and Small Cap Funds: To capitalize on the growth potential of mid and small-cap companies, consider investing in mid and small-cap funds. These funds have the potential to deliver higher returns over the long term but come with higher volatility.
• Flexi Cap Funds: Flexi cap funds offer flexibility in asset allocation across market capitalizations based on market conditions. They can adapt to changing market dynamics and provide opportunities for capital appreciation.
• Balanced Advantage Funds: Considering your age and long investment horizon, you can also include balanced advantage funds, which dynamically allocate between equity and debt instruments based on market valuations. These funds offer downside protection during market downturns.
Before investing, it's essential to assess your risk tolerance, investment goals, and time horizon. Additionally, consult with a Certified Financial Planner (CFP) who can provide personalized recommendations based on your financial situation and goals.

I have completed my B.E in Mechanical in 2021. But jobless till now due to many factors such as following: 1)Due to family issues 2)Low Salary packages inspite of longer distance travelling to office 3) Slow growth in the establishment 4) preparing for govt jobs No I am fed up with all above things... What to do ?
Ans: Hi!!
Syed, you are asking me what to do, here are my suggestions-
1. have clear goals with respect to your job
2. you have listed so may reasons for not taking up a job, now find a few reasons to take a job - your self respect, your own money to spend are some I can think of
3. it's very easy to quit a job, find reasons to stay
4. invest in your physical and mental well being, a clam and collected mind will take better decisions
5. I really won't say slow growth in an organisation, if I had finished engineering in 2021 and it is middle of 2024 now
6. preparing for Govt Jobs is a good idea, look into doing this thing well if you are really serious about it
7. give your 100% in everything you do Syed!! Let there be energy, enthusiasm and excitement in your search for a job, it's your life, take charge of it and see how you want it to unfold. Do all that which is in your control
8.you get fed up when you don't see progress and not celebrate your wins however small they may be! Every step you take towards your goal, pat yourself on the back, be your greatest cheer leader
9.do not compare yourself with others, compare only if you feel inspired
10. focus on your well being and happiness
11. take up a job and do well there, it is better to do a job than to sit idle or
12. look to upskill in an area you want to work, look for job oriented courses
13. seek help if need be

All the very best!!
