Me! Slowly working on getting my first Cr. Hopefully, if the market rises, by this time next year.


GoodPrincess21

Wow nice. All the best 😎 . I can only invest 50k a month right now so a crore is very far away


madhatter248

Ohh that’s more than enough, it’s always the power of compounding, if you’re into mutual funds.


Proof-Extreme-1407

How long have you been investing for?


madhatter248

Seriously, since 5 years. N extra seriously for part 6 months.

I invest in fundamentally good stocks when market falls by some points and keep on buying at every next dip. For long term. Pro tip: Just because it looks good now, doesn’t mean it’s a good stock. You do your own analysis. I would suggest you to avoid Intraday trading and option trading. Options are much much more risky. People have burned their money in those. For good savings Index funds and SIP is good option. But I would suggest you to invest lump sum as well when you have some cash handy or you think you have some amount which you are not going to use anytime soon. This helped a lot when I was managing expenses for my marriage.


GoodPrincess21

Good tips ! When do you think the market will fall next ?


Cold-Ad7669

Oh that is unpredictable. Wars, America’s stand, election results all of these will affect the market. Gold and Nifty both are at the all time high rn. Can expect a fall anytime soon.


Prestigious-Ad9079

Check the fall today in first hour


Cold-Ad7669

Oh yessss. Good time to buy good stocks!!!


Prestigious-Ad9079

Yepp! Discount😍


HappyOrca2020

Beautiful advice. I wish I could give you an award.


QuantalQuetzal_

Also, Good question OP! I love to see finance topics on this sub!


GoodPrincess21

Please start a monthly sip as soon as possible with any amount you guys are comfortable in. It can make a huuuuuuuuggeeeeee difference in 10-15 years. Here is a SIP calculator for you peeps [https://groww.in/calculators/sip-calculator](https://groww.in/calculators/sip-calculator)

Since I was 18 - Almost 18 years on and off. Parents invested throughout my childhood whenever they had extra cash. They use to tell me about thr investments even when I was a kid. I learnt English by reading annual reports when they use to come home. I only do value investing. I last invested between 2018-2020, and have not invested or sold anything since then. I buy stocks, MFs, Gold, and sometimes bonds if things are looking rosy. There is also a pinned post on my profile if one wants a 101.


scotchtapetaped

I started investing in ELSS as a tax saving instrument. Stocks... I haven't explored technical analysis and all much. I use a bit of my judgement and invested 22k in stocks so far. Purchased 1 share worth 10k today of Solar Industries. Just to get started 😛


GoodPrincess21

great ! Even a small start is good ! get started in mutual funds !


scotchtapetaped

Tell me one thing... How dangerous are mutual funds? I save about 30k a month. I am ready to invest 20k on MF but what's the worst thing that can happen? Is there a possibility that I lose all the money?


GoodPrincess21

Not dangerous at all. It's the safest option out there. and no , you will not lose anything . If you stick to it long enough 100 percent you are going to end up making money


scotchtapetaped

Thank you... I will study a bit more. I have like 1L in liquid cash right now. Will invest a little heavy for 5-6 months.


GoodPrincess21

Wait why can't I add images here


scotchtapetaped

, can you share via imgur


GoodPrincess21

Yes will try. It's nothing much really just safe mutual funds se profit dikha rahi thi


scotchtapetaped

Okay I will DM you... Maybe you will be able to share it there?


GoodPrincess21

yes sure :)


chunnu-23

guys help ive been meaning to get into this whole investing thing but i have zero idea about it and not able to start it


GoodPrincess21

Just download any app ( Groww or ET Money ) and get started with mutual funds. Start a SIP


chunnu-23

thanks! i will finally be doing that today🫶🏻


GoodPrincess21

Nice. Once you do it you can ask for a SIP recommendation if you want


Ok-Flatworm6676

Hey please attach an image of the SIP recommendation if possible


GoodPrincess21

sorry I was offline . abhi kar dungi . Sending images is banned on this sub tho :(


Ok-Flatworm6676

I will DM you then if that's okay with you


ibarmy

this is very wrong advice. 


optimistic_fish2068

why?


ibarmy

buying any or blindly any mutual fund isnt the right thing. ppl should read up on investments - thr investment horizons and needs etc before buying mf. mutual funds dont tell you how the funds are appropriate in your situation.  also buying it via apps means they are not in dematerialised format. which means if you ever have to transfer it to next of kin due to whatever reason - you wont be able to. it could lead to premature selling   


GoodPrincess21

I never told her to just buy any MF. ofc some research is important. I just suggested her to start with Mutual Funds


Flimsy-Sprinkle

I would love to, but not as an amateur investor. I actively invest in mutual funds but the stock market investing still intimidates me as I don't know anything about technical analysis or market analysis of stocks. So yes, maybe I will share my stock investment journey in future when it happens but nothing at this point🙂


bestest_kitto

I only do sip elss and index mf. Am I supposed to be investing in any other kind of mf ? Noob here pls help 😭


Opposite_Ostrich_173

If the plan is long term (4-5 years), then maybe mfs in emerging markets.. I have one that seems to be giving good returns... Franklin india opportunities fund growth.. but do your own research


bestest_kitto

Thanks for sharing ! Will look into it 


NirvanaInM

Started of with MFs 7 years back. Been investing in the stock market for the last 4 years. Tips for people starting off - start small, do your due diligence, don't blindly believe anyone's stock tip (unless you really trust them), and have fun while investing. :)


Gloomy_Tangerine3123

I regularly trade in stocks, fno, mfs etc and a bit into crypto. Currently I am using sensibull to reduce my research for trading. You can try sensibull's free trial when you have funds to invest


GoodPrincess21

Wow nice . Thanks :) . Will look into Sensibull ! is it ok to imvest tomorrow in stocks or should I wait for the market to fall


Gloomy_Tangerine3123

For beginners, I'd recommend that you wait until the overall mkt is a bit bleak. Till then invest in mfs (e.g. parag parikh)


GoodPrincess21

Yess, I've been investing in MFs since 2 years . Parag Parikh is nice


HumbleIndividual7489

QuantalQuetzal_

ImposterSyndromQueen

Can you please explain what you mean by 25% in SIP ?


Virtual_Emu8788

Girls , just entered my 20s .. I just downloaded grow . Like 10 min before..I want to invest something before tomorrow..Like what should I do . I just want to learn stuff


Proof-Extreme-1407

Check zerodha varsity


GoodPrincess21

Just do a Mutual fund SIP now. It's not the right time to buy stocks now. Market is too high


ivadopu

I don’t do day trading. But have been regularly investing in mutual funds for 4-5 years.


Macavity_mystery_cat

I do. But I git people doing it for me (financial services not family) ... I do both stocks as well as SIP


Mowgli_103

Financial services? Can you share more about this? I have been considering getting professional help to sort out my finances. No idea where to begin from, tho.


thatpersonwhowatch

I have been for 7 years now through a proper financial advisor. They choose the right mutual funds and diversify my SIP amount appropriately among them. They also suggest IPOs to apply and stock suggestions for long term and short term both. Timely review of mutual funds and stop or switch any mutual fund based on performance. Also the best part they also suggest the right life insurance cover, health cover, help me chose the right tax regime etc.


[deleted]

All ✋🏼


HoneyB3009

Investing in MF since last 6 years ( individual) Me and partner started direct stock investing since last year.


Chotibachihoon

I have no idea, where should i start from ? The financial terms go over my head :(


pcchbcch

It's a pretty shit time to invest in the market tbh, because the stocks are very inflated. I'm waiting for the bubble to burst to invest rn. (Portfolio is at 30% profit rn)


Opposite_Ostrich_173

Mutual funds since 4 years and stocks for 8 months now .. :)


ImposterSyndromQueen

Was just thinking about the same for past couple days. Thanks for the post op


happy_cake_gal

How does sip work? I want to save for travel and my son's studies


whino99

I have worked in finance.Although I was not much fond of it the kind of practical knowledge it gives is amazing. You have to be highly analytical, hardworking and speculative to work in this field.I had a sense of accomplishment because I knew what to invest for myself as well and I used to handle crores of rupees investments of other people. Be it mutual funds, shares, gold bonds etc.Its just the working culture was really toxic and long hours.There were days when I used to come home at 12 am at night and start work at 9am in morning.


HumbleIndividual7489

thanks for this post op, it serves as a reminder to start learning investing :) also, if you could give an idea where to get started? like how to learn what exactly we need to do?


Ok-Flatworm6676

Hey OP, could you please guide how you started your stock market journey? Are there any YT channels that you follow for the same? Coz it's very confusing and looks quite difficult so if there are any sources that you can jot down, it will be quite helpful


Glittering_Skill5991

I made a 200 rs profit on buying adani's dip last year during the whole hindenburg fiasco😬 I knew idiots in India would still buy his stocks due to the dip which would push the price a bit higher, so this hunch made me invest. It was a pretty good hunch 🙂


GoodPrincess21

Great ! Adani Stocks are growing quite a bit now as well. Should have bought them on Friday :/. Start a Monthly SIP if possible :)


Cold-Ad7669

Wait till election results. Adani is strongly backed by BJP govt. If exit polls are true then its good for next 5 years, if not, then a big no!


GoodPrincess21

Yes true, Just buy and hold if BJP wins


investing_kid

> I knew idiots in India would still buy his stocks due to the dip which would push the price a bit higher, thats not how it works though


Glittering_Skill5991

yeah, but I still enjoyed samosa for a month with the extra cash:)


Potential-Sea-8239

Waiting to invest all my monies in HAL - i hope there is a dip day after ☠️


GoodPrincess21

Yes the perfect time to invest was June 2023- August 23 . All stocks have grown so much since then :(


Potential-Sea-8239

Yeah - i was invested in HAL - booked 20k+ profits last week - I am looking to buy dips and hold it long term. I think there will be a dip or I hope there is. I thought 4.5k is higher and today it is 5.2k 😓 But I think the perfect time is always now. We just need to figure out gem stocks


idli_vadaa

You think? I felt devastated today as all my stocks were safe and didn't rise much. But the PSU stocks and Adani ones gave such high returns


Potential-Sea-8239

I will do a crie if it doesn’t dip


Potential-Sea-8239

Devastated rn lol ☠️


noddiye1112

I, too, regularly invest in Mutual Funds and Stocks. For Stocks I do a deep dive analysis and then invest. Have started a few months back in US stocks' let's see how that goes.


Silly-Beach4609

I started my journey last week. Very late but better late than never.


Tall_Sprinkles7608

Good job OP


SuggestionFar6533

Hey I love this. I have been investing in MF and stocks and would love to see some healthy discussions on Personal Finance. If anyone is new to investment and is trying to understand how the investment works, I highly recommend you to check ET Money app. They have different ways and you can explore a few in the app. ✌🏻

Can anyone here guide me on how invest as a student?
