Remove the bull market which started after COVID. So exclude 2020- 2022. 
 Count only 2022-2023

Yes, pretty well. Continue doing what you're doing. 
  
 Most people lose money in the market or to inflation. Anything above 15% is better than average.

We have heard so many times that it's difficult to beat the index and people should stick to investing in index mutual funds.

Well I've been doing SIP in selected non-index funds for past 4-5 years and surprised to that I'm comfortably beating nifty 50 benchmark.

Hey folks, I was checking my portfolio recently and with the slight market correction happening over the course of the month, I am confused about selling some of my stocks, I wanted to know how to go about it?

Background: I am a 24 yo and have been investing since 2020, have made good profit across but with some stocks been super lucky (300-400%) although the absolute number is in thousands only. I don't have any requirement of money and can hold all of them for a very long period.

When to sell a stock?

Hey everyone, I'm curious about retirement planning and would love to hear from others about their retirement goals. What retirement corpus are you looking at? What is your current financial status and expected retirement age? I'm particularly interested in hearing from those who have already started planning for retirement or have already retired. Any tips or advice on retirement planning would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

You can use the following format
Goal/current status/retirement age/current age

My goal : 10cr/2cr/40/30

10 cr  equivalent after inflation adjustment

By plan, I mean 
- After what networth you want to FIRE?
- By what age you think you’ll achieve that Networth?
- How are you going to build that networth?
- What are you going to do after you FIRE?

Those who want to FIRE, what’s your plan?

10 crore 
 - current 7 crore  
 - will reach there in 1 year  
 - currently 37 yo and 1 kid  
 - will focus on teaching, coaching and freelance consulting

I have been investing in stocks as a side gig (since undergrad) and now full time trader for about 5 years Not RJ /WB returns but decent to enjoy non corporate life (I also have rental income to sustain). More and more people I speak to, they are misguided by youtube / telegram influencers. Drop in your queries and I will try my best to help. 

Not selling or providing tips to buy / sell.

Stocks - Do you have any query?

I am a 23 grad who has managed to save close to 7 L all cash till now. Plan was to enjoy the first 6 months of job and then start with the financial hustle. Seems, I am ready. Need suggestions to allocate ~5L across equity, gold, FDs and other investment instruments.

I have an education loan, so tips on that will also be highly appreciated.

Targeting 25 L net-worth (excluding the loan) by the end of ‘24

Thanks!

Reached 7L networth (all cash, need suggestions)

I’m at a 13%- mixture of large cap and small cap funds

Any thread on how much returns your equity portfolio is making?

The power of compounding really works! 
Started with a meagre salary of 4L/annum in 2018. But made sure to SIP 5K every month in Mutual Funds, and kept on increasing with career progression. This could’ve been more but I wasn’t able to regularly SIP during the two years of my masters I did after my first job. 

This may not be as much as the other tech dude bros out here sitting in CRs but this is a big milestone for me and all I’d like to say is SIP really does work and it’s all about being in the long run. Onwards and upwards only now 💪🏼💪🏼

Senior Consultant

I've completed 1 year in my first job. I've tried saving and investing some money, help me decide what I can do better:

Income: 22LPA

PPF: 3 Lakh
EPF: 2 Lakh
MF: 5 Lakh
Saving Account: 4.5 Lakh

Income for new FY post increment: 29LPA

I did these savings based on some advice from my elder brother.

I'd like to spend more this year though, with some travel and going out more, maybe even purchase a scooty/bike and a PS5 😁 - would these expenses be justified?

Apart from improving my savings & investments and 
still being able to afford a few luxuries, I want to know if I should get any of these:

- Health Insurance - Only 5 Lakh cover from company for me and my parents (note - parents are getting old)
- Life Insurance - Do we really need it, I'm still 24?
