Why should you Invest?
As you age, the earning potential reduces and the cost of food, electricity, petrol, medicines etc will increase every year 5-8%, so if a medicine costs 100 rupees today can cost you 105-108 rupees next year.
This trap is called Inflation.
It becomes your primary responsibility to save the money that you make and invest in the assets that beat price increase (Inflation) and over the years we have seen stock markets can help you overcome the price rise.
Lets see the returns of Nifty50 Index from 2005 as compared to Fixed Deposits.
