Must I pay interest on a loan from a friend?

Ans: Hello;

Hope you have adequate term life insurance for yourself.

You may start a monthly sip of 90 K in a combination of pure equity mutual funds.

After 10 years your sip and lumpsum investment will grow into sums of 2.09 and 1.24 Cr respectively.

This adds upto 3.33 Cr. If you add your ppf and EPF corpus then this should add upto a sum of around 4 Cr.

If you invest this corpus in a conservative hybrid debt fund and do a SWP at the rate of 3.5%, you may expect a post tax monthly income of
1 L+.

As you get married your expenses will rise as also the need to plan for various other goals.

Therefore the decision to retire from regular 9-6 job should be backed up with alternate business plan or such other plan to monetize your hobbies that may yield income over atleast next 10-15 years.

Best wishes;

Ans: Hello dear.
You did not mention his NEET passing year. Yet if it is assumed that he appeared for NEET in 2024, it might be too late to take admission to any foreign university. Please consult with the consulting firms that deal in the admission process to foreign universities. Now related to your query about whether he will cope with the syllabus, will depend upon the ability of the student to do hard work. Even though a student scores less in 12th grade or NEET, if he puts a lot of effort into MBBS, then it is possible for him to excel in the subjects. There is no relation between the subjects of 12th grade and the MBBS syllabus. If your cousin is comfortable with Biology, then he can easily cope with the syllabus.

Ans: Dear Sonalee,
I am not sure if it's such a good idea to go and meet her ex, but if that's what she needs to do for closure, then other than supporting her, there isn't much you can do. I know it sucks to see our loved ones in pain and making choices that will cause them more pain, but in some cases, we have to let them make their own decisions. Go with her since she is asking you to; look out for any kind of tricky situation and be there for her because it won't be easy.

Best Wishes.

Ans: Hello;

If your current regular monthly expenses are 1 Lac or below then it looks okay.

Do take some good health insurance apart from coverage in government healthcare scheme for pensioners.

Ans: Hello;

You should start a monthly sip of 40 K in a combination of equity mutual funds.

Assuming 12% return, you may expect a corpus of around 1.5 Cr, 13 years from now(at 55 years of age).

Rental from invested house and fixed income from your corpus can provide you monthly income in retirement.

Happy Investing;

Ans: Hello Madhuri.
First of all, thank you for reading the article so quickly and showing your faith in rediffGuru.
Here is the point-wise reply to your queries:
(1) To practice in India, the candidate has to appear for the Foreign Medical Graduate Examination (FMGE) conducted by the National Medical Commission (NMC) or National Board of Examinations (NBE)
(2) Passing Marks: A minimum of 50%
(3) The candidate can practice either in Govt or Private hospital
(4) One has to decide from which country he wants to do PG. As far as India is concerned, the candidate has to appear for the NEET PG entrance test. There are no direct PG admissions in India without NEET-PG if the candidate seeks an NMC-recognized PG qualification.
Finally, If you plan to pursue a PG degree abroad, ensure that the institution and course are recognized by the NMC to practice in India upon your return.
