Strive For Financial Freedom With Determination, Consistency & Discipline

"Everyone has a general desire for financial freedom, but that's too vague a goal. You need to get specific about amounts and deadlines. The more specific your goals, the higher the likelihood of achieving them," say experts

Mumbai: Financial freedom which means returns on investment/savings are enough to take care of all your needs for the rest of your life is something everyone dreams about. Unfortunately, too many people fall far short of financial freedom. Early planning, determination, consistency and discipline are required in attaining financial freedom as we celebrate 78th Independence Day.

We may not be anywhere near achieving financial freedom as we celebrate our freedom from British rule but we can secure it for the next generation by planning early. Imagine getting insurance cover for your daughter who has just gone to college while it looks very costly for yourself, that way you will be killing her future worries. Voluntary contribution over and above employer's retirement plan can help build a solid retirement corpus as compounding works overtime as you approach retirement age.

The Union Budget announcement of NPS-Vatsalya, a plan for contribution by parents and guardians for minors which will be started is a right step in securing financial freedom for the next generation. "On attaining the age of majority, the plan can be converted seamlessly into a normal NPS account," the Finance Minister said.
