Thanks a lot Sir for your valuable suggestions, I have selected following funds for investment, looking for your kind advise. Parag Parikh Flexi Cap Fund- 35%, Mirae Asset Midcap Fund 20%, Nippon India Small Cap Fund 15%, ICICI Prudential Balanced Advantage Fund 25% and International Fund Motilal Oswal Nasdaq 100 FOF 5%. Regards

Ans: Your fund selection shows a well-diversified approach across flexi-cap, mid-cap, small-cap, and balanced categories. However, consider reducing exposure to international funds due to currency and market-specific risks. Consulting a Certified Financial Planner like us can help tailor these allocations to your specific goals, risk profile, and investment horizon for optimal returns and balance.

Best Regards,

K. Ramalingam, MBA, CFP,

Career
Hello Sir, At present I am appearing Class 12 boards. I want to do research work in human psychology as my career. In which discipline I should do my Bachelors for the same? Is doing MBBS is the only way to reach out in research field? Thanks
Ans: Hi,
Kindly formulate your query in a detailed manner so that the experts on Rediff can provide you with better solutions. If you don’t provide enough information, it will be difficult for them to assist you, as the gurus need to make informed predictions to answer your question. This platform is more transparent than others because you can see the profiles of the experts available here. Therefore, be open and provide precise details. Please note that the platform does not require personal information, and you can post your questions anonymously if you prefer.

Undergraduate (UG) degrees provide foundational knowledge, including how to conduct research. In postgraduate (PG) studies, you generally build on those basics. After completing your PG studies, you can engage in research, either full-time or by pursuing a PhD.

An MBBS degree is also just a basic qualification and is not the only gateway into the research field. You can conduct research in a variety of fields, including arts.

If you are particularly interested in human psychology, gather basic information on the topic and proceed accordingly. There are various aspects of human psychology, so consider which area you would like to specialize in and plan your path from there.

ALL THE BEST

POOCHO. LIFE CHANGE KARO.
