Ans: Good morning!
It's wonderful to hear that both you and your son are taking steps towards securing your financial futures. Let's break down each of your situations:
For your son, starting SIPs at a young age is a smart move. With his current investments and assuming a modest annual return, he has the potential to accumulate a significant corpus by his retirement at age 55. However, to achieve a pension of 1 lakh per month, he might need to increase his investments or diversify into other financial instruments.
As for you, with 4 lakhs already invested and an additional 7 years of SIPs, your corpus at age 70 will depend on the rate of return. It's essential to ensure that your investments align with your risk tolerance and financial goals for retirement.
Regarding your wife's investment in gold, while gold has traditionally been seen as a safe-haven asset, it's essential to diversify investments. Consider exploring other options like mutual funds, fixed deposits, or government savings schemes for a balanced portfolio.
Remember, financial planning is not a one-size-fits-all approach. It might be beneficial to consult a financial advisor who can provide personalized advice based on your individual circumstances. This journey towards financial well-being is a marathon, not a sprint, and every step taken today brings you closer to your goals.
