Ans: It's wise to plan your investments with retirement on the horizon. Here are some suggestions for your lump sum investment:

For equity exposure, opt for diversified equity funds or large-cap funds to minimize risk.
Additionally, allocate a portion to debt funds or hybrid funds to provide stability and income generation.
Given your investment horizon of 5-7 years, focus on funds with a proven track record of consistent performance.
Regularly review your investments and make adjustments as needed based on changes in your financial goals and market conditions.
Remember, investing is a long-term journey, and staying disciplined and diversified is key to achieving your financial objectives.
Consult with a Certified Financial Planner to receive personalized advice tailored to your specific needs and goals.
By carefully selecting mutual funds that align with your risk tolerance, investment horizon, and financial goals, you can work towards building a robust investment portfolio for your retirement years.

Ans: Hello Maam

I am sorry to hear about your situation...well for a doctor it's difficult to work from home because you have to see patients in OT...and they won't come...

Suggest you work as a support consultant...reduce your work load and once family situation improves then resume full time...

Health

Hi , My Hba1c is 6.5-6.6 but sugar fasting is 100-110 and PP is varying 120-145 . These results are in same range since 2years .what does it means ? what should be the diet plan ? how to reduce Hba1c ? whether i am a diabetic ?pl suggest

Ans: A normal level for an HbA1c is below 5.7%.. Your level is indicative of diabetes. Normal fasting blood sugar is less than 100 mg/dl and your range of 100-110 mg/dl which suggests prediabetes. Focus on a balanced diet rich in whole grains, lean proteins, healthy fats, and plenty of vegetables. Limit refined sugars, processed foods, and high-calorie snacks. Monitor portion sizes and spread meals throughout the day. Regular exercise helps lower blood sugar levels. Discuss your results with a registered dietician or your family physician.

I am 55 and currently struggling with my career. I lost my job 4 years ago during covid. I have a management diploma and currently working as visiting faculty teaching in management colleges, but the assignments are far few and unpredictable i am also a graguare in engineering and MA in psychology. Kindly suggest if studying some course or masters oibe will help me to get some online assignments for stable flow of income?

Ans: Not sure if doing courses would help you to get a stable income as most companies prefer younger employees. But can look at option of working in a startup / smaller company at a lower salary and then build a profile to help develop skill sets that would make you employable at a higher salary. It could also be possible that you could use your experience in your past work in your new job.

Hello, I am having 13years+ experience in telecommunications operators & vendors with engineering background.For last few years I have been thinking of doing an mba in relevant field to move forward. Currently I am earning 28lpa & not able to leave my job for full time executive mba. Should I consider for full time via gmat or any online programs from well known b-schools, Would you please suggest..

Ans: If you are already drawing 28 lpa, then leaving a job for doing MBA does not seem to be a good option. But can analyze the placements in these top Executive MBA course. Check if the profiles that they provide are of interest to you. Their average package should be 30+ lpa. Look also at an option of taking a sabbatical from your company to do an executive MBA.

Ans: Weight loss can be challenging, especially when you have a sedentary job. Keep a detailed food diary to track your daily calorie consumption. Include protein at every meal as it boosts metabolism and help maintain muscle mass during weight loss. Focus on whole grains, vegetables, fruits and limit refined sugars. Be active. Take short walks, use stairs, or stand up frequently. Cut back on carbs and stay hydrated.
