want to invest 10 lacs lumpsum for 10-15 yrs pl suggest 2 MFs high to moderate risk

Ans: ere are a few considerations for your lump sum investment in mutual funds with a moderate to high-risk profile for a 10 to 15-year horizon:
1. Large & Mid Cap Funds: These funds invest in a mix of large-cap and mid-cap stocks, offering growth potential while maintaining a certain level of stability.
2. Multi-Cap Funds: These funds have the flexibility to invest across market capitalizations, including large-cap, mid-cap, and small-cap stocks. They provide diversification and the potential for higher returns.
Benefits of Actively Managed Funds:
1. Potential for Alpha Generation: Actively managed funds are run by professional fund managers who aim to generate alpha, or returns that exceed the benchmark index. Through in-depth research, market analysis, and active decision-making, fund managers seek to identify undervalued securities and capitalize on market inefficiencies to enhance returns.
2. Dynamic Portfolio Management: Actively managed funds have the flexibility to deviate from the benchmark index and capitalize on investment opportunities across different market conditions. Fund managers can adjust the portfolio allocation, sector exposure, and stock selection based on their market outlook and investment objectives, potentially optimizing returns and managing risk more effectively.
3. Tailored Investment Approach: Actively managed funds offer a personalized investment approach tailored to specific investment objectives, risk tolerance, and time horizon. Fund managers can incorporate qualitative factors, fundamental analysis, and macroeconomic trends into their investment decisions, providing investors with a diversified and actively managed portfolio designed to achieve their financial goals.
By considering the drawbacks of index funds and highlighting the benefits of actively managed funds, you can make informed investment decisions aligned with your retirement objectives and risk appetite.

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
