Ans: It’s commendable that you’ve built a significant corpus of Rs 70 lakh and have no loans. Let’s analyse your situation and provide a detailed strategy to address potential unemployment and secure your family’s future.

Current Financial Overview
Monthly Salary: Rs 80,000
Monthly Expenses: Rs 60,000
Fund Corpus: Rs 70 lakh
PF Balance: Rs 5 lakh
Family: Wife and 2 kids (aged 7 and 1)
Job Security: Unstable
Immediate Steps to Ensure Financial Security
Create an Emergency Fund
Set aside at least 24 months of living expenses (Rs 15 lakh) in a safe, liquid fund.
Invest in liquid mutual funds or high-yield savings accounts for easy access.
Review and Reduce Expenses
Identify non-essential expenses and reduce them to increase savings.
Prioritise education, healthcare, and basic living expenses for your family.
Health and Life Insurance
Ensure adequate health insurance coverage for the family. Aim for Rs 15–20 lakh of coverage.
Buy term insurance with coverage of at least 15–20 times your annual income.
Build a Contingency Plan
Identify alternative income sources like freelancing, part-time work, or consulting.
Update your skills to improve employability in case of job loss.
Strategies for Your Corpus
Secure Investments
Keep Rs 15–20 lakh in safe instruments like FDs, PPF, or short-term debt funds.
These provide stability and liquidity during uncertain times.
Long-term Growth
Allocate Rs 30 lakh to equity mutual funds for long-term growth.
Choose diversified funds like large-cap or balanced advantage funds.
Education Planning
Start SIPs in mutual funds for your children’s education.
Target a dedicated education corpus by aligning with your children’s future needs.
Retirement Planning
Consolidate and continue building your PF balance.
Invest in NPS or equity mutual funds to secure retirement.
Job Loss Scenario: Survival Plan
Use the emergency fund to manage living expenses.
Avoid withdrawing from long-term investments unless absolutely necessary.
Explore short-term gig opportunities or a part-time job to maintain cash flow.
Action Plan for the Future
Regularly monitor and rebalance your portfolio with a Certified Financial Planner.
Build an additional income stream like tutoring, consulting, or passive investments.
Keep updating skills relevant to your industry to enhance job security.
Final Insights
With your current corpus and careful planning, you can survive a potential job loss. Focus on safeguarding your family’s future by building an emergency fund, securing insurance, and investing systematically. Regular reviews with a Certified Financial Planner will help align your goals and ensure financial stability.

Relationship
My and my wife separate since 1 year due to misunderstanding and now she is not in vontact with nor giving me divorce and she is living separately from her family and i am.worry about her i tried to contact her and her family but not getting answer. She was always blame for her mistake to me. Apart from this she has long trauma issue with her father which is unresolved. I am emotionaly drained as she is not coming back nor giving me divorce.
Ans: It’s also clear that her unresolved trauma with her father may have influenced the dynamics of your relationship, perhaps creating barriers to open communication or trust. While her past is something she ultimately has to face and heal from, it’s not something you can resolve for her, no matter how much you may wish to.

It's important to acknowledge your own emotional wellbeing right now. It seems like you're carrying the weight of her pain as well as your own. This might be the time to step back and focus on finding some clarity and balance for yourself. Working with a counselor or therapist could help you process your feelings and better navigate the uncertainty of this situation. Emotional exhaustion can cloud decision-making and pull you into cycles of self-blame or frustration, and having professional support might give you the tools to handle these emotions in a healthier way.

You’ve made efforts to reconnect and seek closure, which shows your commitment. However, if she is unwilling or unable to engage right now, this could mean shifting your focus toward what you can control: your healing, your boundaries, and your future. Remember that it’s okay to give yourself permission to find peace, even if her choices leave things unresolved for now.

Finding closure within yourself might not come easily, but it is possible. Take it step by step, allowing yourself time to grieve the relationship and reflect on what you’ve learned about yourself. This isn’t just about moving on; it’s about rediscovering your sense of stability and strength, regardless of her decisions. You're navigating this with care, and that shows your integrity and depth of character. Keep reminding yourself that your wellbeing matters, too.

My daughter will appear NIOS grade 10 exams this academic year in parts n next year the remaining subjects ie maths n science. She will pursue science stream in 11 n 12 th. What options are there in science stream in line with medical field without giving NEET exams and also she likes computer as a subject.
Ans: Hello.
Why your daughter is appearing in the NIOS 10th grade examination in two parts is not clear. It is suggested that try to clear 10th grade with the required subjects only in sitting i.e. in the same year if she wishes to pursue a science stream to avoid academic problems in some courses. But it seems that your daughter might be weak in mathematics, hence you might have decided to appear for 10th grade in parts. If she likes computers, then for a bright future in computer engineering one should be sound in mathematics. Without giving NEET, you have a lot of options in the medical field. It is highly suggested that instead of focusing on the available fields right now, it would be suggested that you explore the options in 2027 when your daughter will be in the 12th grade. According to her interest at that time, it will be more suitable to choose the options instead of thinking at this stage. Hence the options available are not suggested to you at this early stage. But to suggest, it is better to appear for NEET and get a mark memo (with any score) which will be very useful at the time of admission to many courses related to the medical field.
Best of luck to your daughter for the upcoming examinations and a bright future.
