I am of age 46 years.. I was not properly aware of financial planning hence start SIP 3 years back and currently doing 40000 SIP. I wish for at least 10 more years to invest. Please suggest how should i plan. Also tell me how can I connect..
Ans: It's great to hear that you've taken the initiative to start investing through SIPs for your financial future. Here's a plan to consider for the next decade of investing:

Assess Current Investments: Begin by evaluating your existing SIPs and their performance. Review the funds' track records, returns, and consistency. Determine if any adjustments or rebalancing are needed based on your risk tolerance and investment goals.
Diversification: Consider diversifying your investment portfolio across different asset classes such as equity, debt, and possibly other alternative investments like gold or real estate investment trusts (REITs). Diversification helps reduce risk and enhances the potential for returns.
Risk Management: As you approach your investment horizon, gradually shift towards a more balanced portfolio with a mix of equity and debt funds. This can help mitigate potential market volatility while still aiming for growth.
Goal Setting: Identify your financial goals for the next decade, including retirement planning, children's education, or any other major milestones. Determine the required corpus for each goal and the timeframe available for achieving them.
Professional Guidance: Consider seeking advice from a Certified Financial Planner (CFP) who can provide personalized financial planning services tailored to your needs and objectives. A CFP can help you create a comprehensive financial plan, optimize your investment portfolio, and navigate through various financial decisions.
Regular Review: Stay actively involved in monitoring your investments and review your financial plan periodically, at least annually or as needed. Make adjustments based on changes in your financial situation, market conditions, and evolving goals.

As for connecting with a Certified Financial Planner, you can reach out to me through my website to schedule a consultation or discuss your financial planning requirements further. I'll be happy to assist you in creating a customized financial plan to achieve your long-term financial goals.

Relationship
Hi, I am not yet mairred. I used to like a man and after a month we decided to get married. He was of my caste so I thought my parents won't deny this mairrage. I used to talk to and wanted to let him know everything about my past so that we can built a strong root of our relationship. I spoke every detail of my past life to him. Then before he proposed me for mairrage I went for a vacation with my male friend to dehradun. I didn't tell him that day as he didn't proposed me till that day then why would I tell everything about me to anyone. He was noone to me at that time. After that he came to visit me in Delhi and on the same when he was on train a friend of mine along with his fiance came to meet me after a very long time. I asked him and he didn't denied. After returning home he blocked me. I cried and cried, called multiple times but he didn't received my call. Even I went to his location and waited for almost 3 hr but he didn't came. Then I asked my sister to call him. Then he talked to me but he said me so much of harsh and vulgar words that I went in shock. I cried a lot but he went on humiliating me. But somehow I convinced him to stay with me. I never talked to that friend ever. Then I told my parents about him that I want to get married with this men. Being a girl's father my father enquired about him by being annonymous. And trust me noone has said anything good about him. Later on we get to know that his father has a murder case on him of his brother in law. But then I wanted to get married. Finally my parents agreed only for my happines. Meanwhile I was never being respected by him. He always doubt me, humiliate me, abuse me mentally and physically, and when I was like I don't want to be with you he used to say sorry and begged me to be with him. He even used to restrict to visit my uncle aunty. His mother wants used to defend him and never used to make him realise that he was wrong. Then before engagement we went to Kolkata to buy dress. Yes one more thing I have informed him on the very first day that I used to drink and smoke occassionally. So whenever he used to visit me he always wanted to drink with me whether I want it or not. He always used to abuse me and humiliate me in front of everyone after drinking, so after a period of time I used to avoid drinking. Then he used to fight with me for that also that why will you not drink. In kolkata the same thing happen. We stayed there for 3 days and he was convincing to go to club from the very first day but I refused. On 3rd he hit me. After engagement his family asked for dowry. After a lot of dealing my parents agreed for an amount. But I felt betrayed. I stopped talking. After after when I initiated the conversation he picked up a fight and said he won't marry. I tried to convince. But when everyone was blaming me then I broke my silence and said everything about him to my parent. But he manipulated everything and made me villain. My parents want me to get married as the society will insult our parents. I am getting married in November only for my parents but I have already made up my mind that I'll divorce him after 1 year of mairrage and will live my life alone. Am I thinking right? What should I do?
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
No, you are not thinking right at all...This man is all RED FLAGS...
Are you actually thinking of spending one year with a person who physically abuses you? Seriously?
And then you expect him to agree to that divorce without any fuss? What world are you in? No compromises on your life please...
Be wise and protect yourself...

All the best!
