Dear Sir, I am 46 yrs old, I need Rs 1.35 Lac per month after my retirement. How much I have to invest in NPS to get the same.

Ans: Calculating the exact amount you need to invest in NPS to achieve a monthly income of Rs 1.35 lakh after retirement involves several factors, such as your current NPS corpus, expected returns, and the annuity rates prevailing at the time of retirement.

To determine the required NPS investment, you'd typically need to consider your expected rate of return and the annuity rates applicable at retirement. Annuity rates can vary based on market conditions and the prevailing interest rates.

It's crucial to consult a Certified Financial Planner to get a comprehensive understanding tailored to your specific situation. They can help you assess your current financial position, estimate your retirement needs, and devise a suitable NPS investment strategy to meet your income goal.

Remember, retirement planning is a complex process, and it's essential to consider various aspects to ensure a comfortable retirement. Seeking professional guidance can provide clarity and help you make informed decisions. Best wishes for your retirement planning journey!

My age for 25 year i need 80000 thousands par months after retirement. Hou much i have to invest in nps to get the same
Ans: It's great that you're thinking about your retirement at such a young age. Let's calculate how much you need to invest in the National Pension System (NPS) to achieve a monthly income of 80,000 after retirement.

Understanding NPS
National Pension System (NPS): NPS is a voluntary, long-term retirement savings scheme offered by the Government of India.
Investment Options: NPS offers various investment options, including equity, corporate bonds, and government securities, allowing you to choose a suitable asset allocation based on your risk tolerance and investment goals.
Retirement Income: The accumulated corpus in your NPS account can be used to purchase an annuity, providing you with a regular income stream during retirement.
Estimating Retirement Corpus
To generate a monthly income of 80,000 after retirement, we'll first calculate the required retirement corpus based on your life expectancy and expected rate of return.

Calculation Steps
Monthly Income Requirement: 80,000 (as per your requirement)
Annual Income Requirement: 80,000 * 12 = 9,60,000
Annual Income in Retirement: Assuming a conservative 6% annual return post-retirement, the corpus required would be:
Retirement Corpus = Annual Income Requirement / Expected Annual Return
Retirement Corpus = 9,60,000 / 0.06 = 1,60,00,000
Determining NPS Contribution
Given your age of 25, you have a considerable investment horizon, allowing you to benefit from compounding returns over time. Let's calculate how much you need to invest in NPS to accumulate the required retirement corpus.

NPS Calculator
Using an NPS calculator with assumed rates of return and retirement age, you can determine the monthly contribution required to achieve your retirement goal.

Conclusion
To ensure a comfortable retirement with a monthly income of 80,000, you need to start investing in NPS early and contribute regularly. Consider consulting with a Certified Financial Planner to develop a personalized retirement plan aligned with your financial goals and risk tolerance.

Help me!!! 1.I'm starting new "work" on my own(challenging for me) but my mind says quit it, be quite & do nothing. I myself don't know that wether the result of work will be +ive or uncompleted like alws. 2. My mind has become like order seeker type, when someone orders me, I do those things with dedicated(but sad from inside) manner. But when myself will try something different(which i fear, but necessary) then. "I QUITS IT" & sometimes I don't even start. 3. I'm like stuck no clue what/whom I want to do in life, I'm in cllg(1 yr) doing (CSE) ,. 4. I want to do/try (sports,talking girls,study,stocks,coding..) many things, but myself, my thoughts(overthinker), R like just be in the place where u are[confused,po*n,think about past/future(being billio..re,olympics..), girl (that u liked & never talked), abusive/beating self,.. sometimes feels like end life, but don't hv courage for that also.. 5. I tried self help books, spirituality, god, self affirmation, writing... & thay affected me(sometimes) but for only some time, then again that devil me comes up &these things never get completed. As no one in my family knows about all these, so that's Y ,I hv to fight/loose/try again, the battles with myself.
Ans: Dear Harsh,
If in the past you have had the urge to QUIT, how is this time going to be different? This is not to discourage you from taking up 'new work' but pointing out that there is some amount of work that you need to put to clear the mind out of blockages.
-What is limiting you?
- What is the reason for putting off things?
- What comes first to the mind when you start something new?
Also, focus on one thing at a time; study and go deep into it...what's this thing with work? I don't understand. When the mind is unsettled, take one thing/activity, pursue it and finish it. It could simply be studying for Year 1 of your college...just only do that...once your mind is trained in completing an activity, you can add another one the next year along with studying and then pursue both...it could be some sport and studying...then the next year, you could add a third activity. This is called 'training the mind in discipline'. Discipline will make sure that you start and finish things...So, go slow and do one thing at a time.

All the best!
