Lets start with the top 10:
- Start early: The sooner you start investing, the more time you give your money to compound and grow.
- Regularly invest: Be it monthly, quarterly, or annually, the key is consistency.
- Diversify: Spread your investments across different asset classes and sectors.
- Use tax-advantaged investment vehicles: Utilize PPF, ELSS, NPS and more, that offer tax benefits.
- Invest in equities for long term: They have historically provided higher returns over long periods.
- Avoid debt traps: Try not to borrow for consumption. If you must borrow, do it for assets.
- Emergency fund: Keep 3-6 months’ expenses as cash for emergencies.
- Automate your investments: This will ensure discipline and also help in effective budgeting.
- Insurance: It’s not an investment, but a critical financial protection tool. Get adequate health and term life insurance.
- Review and Rebalance: Review your portfolio annually and rebalance if needed. Take help of a SEBI registered advisor if needed.
