The more you learn, the better you\u2019ll be able to wield it in a way that achieves your goals.<\/p>\n<p>Building a portfolio of quality investments is one way to get ahead financially and achieve both, short and long term goals. On the occasion of World Thrift Day, Mr. Bhuvan Verma, AVP, Investment Counsellor, Citi Bank addressed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sathguru.com\/life-at-sathguru\/\">Sathguru associates<\/a> on Savings and Investing the Right Way.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Verma emphasized on an investment portfolio that can help achieve the long-term financial dreams. For example, building a nest egg for retirement, vacation plans, planning children\u2019s higher education or acquiring assets, etc.<\/p>\n<p>He said, while savings accounts offer easy access and the security of guaranteed capital, the returns are normally small. Investing in the stock market yields higher returns over the long-term, but with a comparatively higher level of risk.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is Saving Essential?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Potential for long-term returns<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While cash is undoubtedly safe, it will not grow unless it is invested prudently. Mr. Bhuvan Verma provided statistical evidence to show the past trend, where investors have secured rewards on long terms <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sathguru.com\/services\/corporate-finance-and-investment-banking\/\">investments <\/a>that come with a level of capital risk- like stocks and real estate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Outperform inflation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Investment planning should be done such that the savings earn a rate of return after tax that\u2019s greater than the rate of inflation. This is important to prevent the hard earned money from losing its value in the long term.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Provide a regular income<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Plan to invest in financial instruments which will give a regular income to cover day-to-day living expenses including medical &amp; health expenses, groceries, basic travelling, etc. during the retirement period.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Power of Compounding and Rule of 72<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mr. Bhuvan discussed in detail two important concepts- the power of compounding, which he dubs as the \u201c8<sup>th<\/sup> wonder of the world\u201d for the importance it holds and the \u201crule of 72\u201d, which can determine the time it takes for an investment to double.<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-2345\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sathguru.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/World-Thrift-Day-1024x538.jpg\" alt=\"On World Thrift Day Sathguru employees engaged in discussion on Savings &amp; Investments\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sathguru.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/World-Thrift-Day-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sathguru.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/World-Thrift-Day-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sathguru.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/World-Thrift-Day-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sathguru.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/World-Thrift-Day.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\u00a0\u201cSMART\u201d way to attain Financial Independence<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Goals are part of every aspect of business\/life that provide a sense of direction, motivation, and clear focus.
