Hello, I am 32 years old and have started investing in following funds. Please review. I am investing with a horizon of 10 - 15 years and ready to take risk. The investment is not linked to any specific goal but to save and create wealth. 1. Parag Parik - 10k 2. Kotak Multicap - 10k 3. Canra Rebocco Small Cap - 5k 4. Canara rebocco blue chip - 5k 5. ICICI PRU value discovery - 10k 6. AXIS Growth Opportunities - 9k 7. HDFC Balance Advantage - 7k 8. Groww Index Fund - 7k 6. Axis ELSS - 2.5k
Ans: It's great to see your proactive approach towards investing at the age of 32, with a clear horizon of 10-15 years and a willingness to take on risk to achieve your wealth creation goals. Let's review your investment portfolio to ensure alignment with your objectives.

Assessment of Fund Selection:

Parag Parikh Long Term Equity Fund (PPLTEF): This fund follows a flexible investment strategy, investing in a mix of Indian and foreign equities. It's known for its consistent performance and focus on quality stocks.

Kotak Standard Multicap Fund: Multicap funds offer diversification across market capitalizations. Kotak is a reputable AMC, and this fund has a strong track record of delivering steady returns over the long term.

Canara Robeco Small Cap Fund: Small-cap funds have the potential for high growth but come with higher volatility. Canara Robeco has a decent reputation, but small-cap investments require careful monitoring due to their inherent risk.

Canara Robeco Bluechip Equity Fund: Blue-chip funds invest in large-cap stocks known for their stability and reliability. This fund offers a conservative approach within your portfolio, balancing the risk associated with small-cap investments.

ICICI Prudential Value Discovery Fund: Value-oriented funds focus on undervalued stocks with growth potential. ICICI Pru is a trusted AMC, and this fund aims to deliver long-term capital appreciation.

Axis Growth Opportunities Fund: This fund targets growth-oriented companies across sectors. With a focus on mid and small-cap stocks, it adds diversification to your portfolio but may come with higher volatility.

HDFC Balanced Advantage Fund: Balanced advantage funds dynamically manage equity exposure based on market conditions. This can provide stability during market downturns while capturing growth opportunities during upswings.

Groww Index Fund: Index funds passively track market indices. While they offer low expense ratios and broad market exposure, they may underperform actively managed funds during certain market conditions.

Axis Long Term Equity Fund (ELSS): ELSS funds offer tax benefits under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act. Axis is a reputable AMC, and this fund invests predominantly in equity, providing potential for capital appreciation along with tax savings.

Overall Portfolio Assessment:

Your portfolio reflects a diversified mix of equity funds across market capitalizations and investment styles. It's well-suited for long-term wealth creation, considering your risk appetite and investment horizon.

Recommendation:

Regularly review your portfolio's performance and rebalance if necessary to maintain your desired asset allocation. Consider consulting with a Certified Financial Planner periodically to ensure your investments remain aligned with your financial goals.

Career
Hello Sir, At present I am appearing Class 12 boards. I want to do research work in human psychology as my career. In which discipline I should do my Bachelors for the same? Is doing MBBS is the only way to reach out in research field? Thanks
Ans: Hi,
Kindly formulate your query in a detailed manner so that the experts on Rediff can provide you with better solutions. If you don’t provide enough information, it will be difficult for them to assist you, as the gurus need to make informed predictions to answer your question. This platform is more transparent than others because you can see the profiles of the experts available here. Therefore, be open and provide precise details. Please note that the platform does not require personal information, and you can post your questions anonymously if you prefer.

Undergraduate (UG) degrees provide foundational knowledge, including how to conduct research. In postgraduate (PG) studies, you generally build on those basics. After completing your PG studies, you can engage in research, either full-time or by pursuing a PhD.

An MBBS degree is also just a basic qualification and is not the only gateway into the research field. You can conduct research in a variety of fields, including arts.

If you are particularly interested in human psychology, gather basic information on the topic and proceed accordingly. There are various aspects of human psychology, so consider which area you would like to specialize in and plan your path from there.

ALL THE BEST

POOCHO. LIFE CHANGE KARO.

Relationship
I have a crush on my colleague recently. We started as a friend but one day we get drunk on one of colleague house. We talk about life and love. I asked about his ex. He told his past relationship story how they break up. I also shared some of my past situationship. We live in a same colony. So we came back home together getting drunk I told him you can lean ur head on my shoulder. And he suddenly lean his head on my shoulder and he was sleeping and I wake him up when we reached our destination. He takes me to my house and I suddenly hold his wrist. I don't why did I hold him and next morning he yes hi (call my name)how are you I didn't respond properly I'm just like yeah good after that he seems to avoid me a lot he didn't talk to me much I caught him looking at me sometimes but it might be coincidence. I think he doesn't like me
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I understand it must all be very confusing but I would suggest not jumping to conclusions. You think he doesn’t like you, but he might be thinking the same since you did not respond to him properly the next day. That could have triggered his current behavior. If you have feelings for him or if you even miss him as a friend, I would recommend you to clear the air with him. Just talk it out- you can explain how things got a little heavy the other day and that’s why you didn’t speak to him nicely and apologize if that made him feel bad. If even after that he continues to avoid you, then you will have better clarity.

Hope this helps.
