"Hey, Akshat" ..... Can you make some videos on strategies for Intraday trading? There are innumerable videos on trading but only a few have the same level of cool headed practicality as yours.
l love your video. Large investors need to understand the content of investing completely differently than small investors do. Warren buffet once said that if he has one million of capital to invest he would guarantee a return of 40% per annum. It would be very interesting to understand the different valuation methods for valuing investment
The decision to invest is an acknowledgement that it comes with certain risks. Not all investments will do well and some may lose money. However, without risk, there would be no opportunity to potentially earn the higher returns that can help you grow your wealth.
To manage investment risk, consider maintaining a broad diversification of your investments that reflects your personal risk tolerance, time horizon, and the nature of your financial goal.
Remember, diversification is an approach to help manage investment risk. It does not eliminate the risk of loss if security prices decline. Because investing can be complicated, consider working with a financial professional to help guide you on your wealth-building journey.

@@AkshatZayn hey Akshat love your videos! I’m 31 and have 80 Lakhs saved . Hoping to retire by 40 ! Thanks for your video & Wish me luck that would mean n lot . ❤️ ( monthly expenses 70k-1lakh , no house : will live on rent , car 🚗 wagon R )
I’m 41, and my partner is 50. We have $800,000 in retirement savings and make $250,000. We want to retire ASAP but know our money won’t last. What can we do?
My portfolio grew by 100% within 6 months. Couldn’t have put it better myself. Last year a colleague introduced me to a financial consultant Jennifer Elizabeth Boland who has been helping me find investments that have significant growth potential. She invested my money in reputable companies which their stocks must always rise after any dip.
When I retired at 63, I had accumulated a little more than the LW in my IRAs. Just like the LW, we had no mortgage or any other debt, and we calculated we could easily live on our SS and wife's pension. We truly retired... there was no need to do any kind of W2 or 1099 work anymore. We invested our IRAs into fairly aggressive stocks and bonds, which generated an average $165K increase annually these last 10 years. We "distributed" (took out) close to $100K a year for vacations, travel, fun, and other investments, i.e., real estate and crypto. We envision that we can easily do this for another 15 to 20 years when I will be in my nineties. Don't know if the LW will be able to this for the next 40 to 50 years. It can be done, but on the other hand, I was at the prime of my life in my forties and fifties, earning more money than ever before and truly enjoyed the path my career had taken. I cannot imagine living the lifestyle I live today back in those years.
@@mooreleigh8928 I would;advice you to reach out to Jennifer Elizabeth Boland. Through her you can get strategies designed to address your unique long-term goals and financial dreams
We are headed towards massive inflation and a recession. I advise you to work 5 more years. Retiring at 46 and 55 is still early. Working just 5 more years and continuing to invest as you are, should give you plenty. Better to have a little too much, than not enough.
Fabulous as always. I planned to (and hopefully still will) document my own journey from being pretty broke (current status) to being financially independent by 30 through writing and on TH-cam. Knowing you and your journey has really pushed me to take this up and I'll hopefully start soon :)
Loved this video! ❤️ I have been going through the same planning process right now, to retire by 40. One thing I struggle with is - estimating cost of children's education etc especially with it becomibn such a huge cost these days. Another pain point - biggest criteria is to assume same quality of life. But I guess people would want yo reture early so they can do other things (like travel and do location independent jobs in my case) - that's a big variability as well and requiring a lot more effort to estimate accurately. Anyway thanks for this video! :)
From what I've seen, if you've planned on having children and you don't earn over 20 LPA ( depending on how old you are and save more than 70% ) early retirement is not an option, atleast not before 40. If you don't want to loan out the whole of you children's education and make them bear it for their whole lives that is.
Identifying the right investment can help you increase your earnings and accelerate your financial goals in tremendous ways. My earnings from stocks got me out of debt.
Nice information in simple language. After seeing your videos, I always share these videos with my Son. Thanks for sharing. Even I started sharing in my Office group.
Hi Akshat, Very informative video 👍 I would also advise to include emergency funds for medical expenses, children education, inflation (must), taxes while trying to calculate retirement portfolio.
The most pronounced aspect of your videos is the element of Honesty. Your knowledge (subject matter expertise) and diction are simply brilliant. The concepts you deliver are amazing. Plz keep doing the good work. we love your capability to deliver complicated stuff in such a lucid fashion.
Akshath you are really good. I’m binge watching your videos. Thanks for making quality content like this. I’m liking all your videos and hitting thumbs up as well.
Akshat I loveeeeeeedd this video! Sach may I can't help emphasize this more! Keep making such great videos!!!! The way you say all the right things really pulls me to watch each and every one of your videos!
Sir,thank you for making this video. It was so easy to understand and the way you explained, it kept me engaged through the entire video.I am 20 years old. Today I'll surely make a plan for saving n investing so that i can retire early😊.
4 percent rule is fine for countries like USA, where inflation is 1 or 2 percent. To adapt this calculation for countries like India, you need to take inflation into account. You might argue that you are going to invest the nest egg in the stock market but it is highly volatile. Again psychology of people wins over numbers.
Absolutely agree with you Sathish. A quality of life needing 25k/month today would translate into 50k/month in coming 10 years (assuming 7% inflation an year). Plus he doesn't even talk about adding dependents (children etc) and meeting their expenses in future such as education, marriage etc.
@@sukrit1708 In a country like India , inflation rate is 6% only on paper. The reality is much different. Post second wave , prices of most items have increased by 25-30% in a few months. On the top of it , there is no relaxation provided by the government for a common man. The city where you live also plays an important role in deciding upon your early retirement. In cities like Delhi and Mumbai , the corpus needs to be huge and one has to be extremely adaptable to learning the financial concepts so that money can be generated from equity markets etc. regularly.
So simple so good so enlightening. Your videos are like watching a tv series daily something interesting comes up. By far this is one of the most rich content channel on TH-cam.
Where is the element of inflation considered in all this math? Expenses of 50K per month today might sound like a decent amount. It's peanuts 10-15 years down the lane.
Inflation is built into the Trinity study. Simply put, your will gradually go up but your portfolio of investments will go up too. Please read it in depth it will really help you clarify things.
Stocks give around 11-13% if you invested smartly inflation is 5-6% you will always earn 6%,as the inflation rises so will ur income as long as you spend under 6%
Thank you sir for giving us immense knowledge on financial freedom. I always wished to have a mentor like you. Thankfully god listened to me . We all are arjuns and you are our dronacharya. Thank you again :)
Summary 1. Estimate your monthly expenditure Expenses estimate + Quality estimate - determine what amount is ? Retirement portfolio / Investment of at least 1 cr if you are withdrawing money 4 % every year - it will last till 30 years. 2. How much you are saving - Limit your recurring expenses (Track them), track your age, start building your portfolio. 3. What percentage of salary to be saved If you able to save 70% for 10 years then can retire if quality of life is consistent. 4. Basics/Crash course Earn a lot, cut down your expenses, quit consumerism, at least 70 percent to be saved, explore parallel source of income/side income (like upwork)
Hi Akshat, we need to consider inflation as well. Today 25k can be good enough for quality life but for the same lifestyle we would need more money when we retire.🤔
I appreciate your efforts and the perspective you trying to bring in, however I'm curious to know if inflation was considered here, it being soaring high these days. Also even if we beat it by generating an alpha, how sustainable it would be.
Good question let me explain u. U r investing 1lakh in 2021,the current inflation rate is 6%.So in order to beat the inflation rate next year u gotta invest 1lakh 6 thousand,similarly in 2022 inflation rate becomes 8%..then u gotta invest in 2023the 8% of what the total amount u r investing in year 2022(i.e 1lakh 6thousand)😇
There are other factors to consider like Inflation, Variable Income/Expenses as it’s highly impractical to have a constant expense over a long period of time. Also the Income should also increase along with Inflation. But nevertheless it’s a good starting point to plan for early retirement
So for instance if you are getting a very conservative return of 10% (generally from S&P 500 or TSX Index), and you are just walking out with 4% from that growth corpus, there is a huge gap left. This gap accounts for inflation + any unforeseen issues in the economy. Ideally, a 10-12% return is achievable across all markets. As the base amount compounds, the amount that you withdraw + inflation is all factored-in. So the method is sound, what is required is consistency from our end. Hope this helps in someway :)
@@tsk12171 Well I didn’t complain or contradict on the method suggested. I just pointed out that Expenses can’t be fixed and projected over the years. There are many components which could increase the expenses drastically when compared to the income. Example: 1. Tuition fees of kids can increase steadily and it most probably higher than inflation. 2. Health insurance premiums increases with age So in general expenses would mostly be higher than inflation which in turn would suggest that it would take longer than the calculated retirement age or the income should increase year on year beating the inflation comfortably. Also this process assumes that we should not enter into any long term loans like home loan/car loan till the early retirement else it would delay the goal even further. Though the process looks good on paper and convincing. There are practical difficulties in following it in disciplined and dedicated manner.
@@chikku18india these points struck me too but than I realized that he is talking about individual retirement while the other half is still working full time (I assume). If both the spouses are working in this way , than the corpus needs to be pretty high for family.
@@jinfin221 I was talking about the S&P500 index and TSX composite in the west just to generalise the returns. In India, we get a far higher return simply by investing in the right stocks. In the west markets have stagnated compared to emerging markets with untapped growth (like India) :). And it was a fairly conservative assumption, haha !
Realistic and proof originating video with a very strong framework of strategies and models. Beautiful!! I agree saving is the 🔑 and Earning more could be done by developing and enhancing skills. Thank you.
Great Video Akshat. it explains in crystal clear manner the nest egg required to lead a certain quality of life. But readers please bear in mind the amount excludes the money you need for other goals like kids education, their marriage (which in India is a must) and other material assets you may need before you retire. The only way is to work your butt off to create multiple income streams (forget work-life balance and think of work-work balance), and have as much money for other goals too before you think of retiring.
My calculation was. Take current monthly expenses, calculate yearly. Compound it by 5-7% for inflation for the number of years left to ur target retirement years. 25k monthly, 3L yearly expenses now would be 5L after 10yrs. If one can manage to make investments with 10% return/annum after 10yrs. He would need a nest egg of 50L. If 5% returns, need 1cr nest egg. Live off from the returns and the capital stays intact.
let me ask u a question how can someone live by just spending 25k a month . he ll be having home loan and car loan added together which make it nearly 60k a month
Really love your content Akshat! Your advice really resonates with young people like me! Just another suggestion - You could also do a video on relationship advice and how it affects you financially since this is something that is important, and a lot of people struggle to come to terms with such problems!
Thank you TH-cam’s algorithm for recommending this channel. I came across your channel last week and since then I’ve learnt a lot of new things and which really have helped me. Anyway to connect with you? Keep up the amazing work, Akshat. Thank you!
Hi Akshat, expense *33 gives us retirement nest egg… but what we missed is the inflation…. Today’s 100 might be equal to 10 rs or less… so 1Cr might be equal to just 10lac…(hypothetically speak)… so what amount is good say after 30 years from now?
Good point. I was also think the same Example and studies used in this video are from countries that do not witness much inflation (US AND UK). Other points to be factored in are 1. Expenditure will never stay constant even though lifestyle may. Eg more kids, parental expenditure. 2. Also to start doing something you like (akshat definition of retirement) will always require some expenditure. Whether it be upskilling, or investing something for your post retirement career
If prices go up then its safe to assume the investment value goes up too so it cancels out each other and inflation is around 6-7% avg but stock indexes return avg around 12-15%..sooo the investment value will be beating the inflation..and lets say total 1 cr is your calculated goal and every year u take out 3% and inflation is 6%..so u will be losing 9% every year but indian stock indexes avg is around 12-15% sooo every year your 1 Cr will be growing
@@prateekr.k6294 good analysis … but ur seeing only with respect to share market… and everyone won’t do that… some might choose MF or gold or may be simple FD… irrespective of that the returns are different… but as price increases, the investment value may or may not increase… that depends on ur investment… So I think Akshat should consider the 6-7% of inflation when he calculated the 3lac with 25k monthly expense…
@@Rkd01989haa bro but thats one more step after financial freedom where you have to beat 6-7% inflation and some extra percentages to grow your corpus so your 3% expenses raise with inflation
I've not known about building an alternative source of income until 6 months ago. I really liked how you motivate your viewers to think of prospects of letting money work for you than you working for money sooner in life. I just wish.. I'd have heard of something like this sooner.. better late than never. Good job @Akshat !
Minimising cost was and still has been my go to mantra, I had been using a 2008 model alto for my office commute, an year after my MBA I landed a job in amazon and was saving a really good chunk of my salary. However, my family softly pushed me into buying a brand new car only one year into the start of my career. Now my car's EMI, maintenance and fuel cost combined costs me ~40k monthly. I live with my parents only hence don't have any heavy expenses. But I feel this purchase decision has pushed me years behind my plan. Any suggestion which can cut my losses short?
Sir, that was a great explanation. I appreciate that. 👏👏👏 But in the calculations you should include inflation too. Because in 12-15 years the cost of living is likely to be doubled. Please come up with a video including the inflation rate too. That'll give an absolute clear perspective to all your viewers about how much money they will need to spend monthly at the time of retirement. Thanks in advance. ♥️
Sir ..thank you very much..your video is awesome 👌 But could you plz clarify how about invest 1Cr in FD with RI 7%? Only stock market is right to invest Plz clarify my doubt
This video is based on US economy....where interest rate is almost zero....in India if u consider FD interest rate of 6% p.a , a corpus of 2 crore will give an interest of ₹12 lakhs per year....1 lakh per month...and ur capital is intact
India is also gradually going towards developed nation category....20 -25 years back, u could get 10% pa interest for FD s...Next 20-25 years, we can see about 2% interest rates....by that time, about 30-40% indian public would be in stock market..now only about 3-4% Indians in stock market and MFs
Hey Akshat, although the numbers make sense but I wanted to understand if that takes into consideration the money depreciation/inflation rate. Practically 25K today will be equivalent to 10K after 10yrs leading to a dip in QOL. Also the study ignores various scenarios such as child education, vacation or other life events. So we must need an additional corpus amount to drive these additional needs. Any thoughts/logics as how to estimate that corpus will be appreciated. Thanks
It would have been more accurate if u would have included inflation in the calculations, as the time horizons are in decades. A person spending 25K a month will have to spend 1 lakh per month after 20 years considering a similar lifestyle throughout. Anyways...thanks for this informative video.
Hmm, the average investment corpus (say 1cr by the age of 39yrs)beats inflation. Say, for example, a decent mutual fund, will almost always not only beat inflation but also give some returns over and above inflation figures in a functional economy like India. Right?
@@3010amit you are right. But I was pointing out the expenses per month which Akshat was calculating. This will always change with time even keeping your lifestyle same. The '1 crore' calculation which involves 25K*12*33 should include the depreciation of rupee. '1 crore' today might have the purchasing power of 70 lakhs after 10 years.
I agree with your definition of retirement. I have targeted that by 35 I will make such corpus so that I dont have to work hard but just enough and what I want to work for
Hey Akshat, thanks for the amazing content. Quick question - Did you take into account the impact of reducing spend power of the monthly expenditure? I might be happy with let's say 25k per month but after 30 years, I would need more than 25k to maintain same quality of life accounting for inflation.

At 30: We can be aggressive investor. But as we grow, we might want be on a safer side with our corpus. So, Nest egg should give a return of 4%(Expense)+7%(Inflation)=11%. Which might be difficult as we grow.

One of the best video on TH-cam ,Very insightful and comprehensive video but you didn't talked about inflation.

Sometimes there are big expenses beyond regular ones like buying a car, foreign holiday, medical bills not covered by insurance, ...how all these Will be accounted in planning for retirement

The stock market may seem like a safe bet, but might end up declining in value depending on the whims of the market.
Truly, I’m considering investing in the market but there’s plenty of research to find good stocks.
Identifying lucrative investment is tasking, Investors with a lower risk appetite should stick to basic strategies

Nice information in simple language.
After seeing your videos, I always share these videos with my Son. Thanks for sharing. Even I started sharing in my Office group.
Hi Akshat, Very informative video 👍
I would also advise to include emergency funds for medical expenses, children education, inflation (must), taxes while trying to calculate retirement portfolio.
The way you explain is really soothing..No need to mention about the content it’s alway top notch.thanks for all your efforts.
Good video. What would be the multiplier (instead of 33) for someone wanting to retire at 50?
Rob a bank ( like in Money Heist) and retire early.

The most pronounced aspect of your videos is the element of Honesty. Your knowledge (subject matter expertise) and diction are simply brilliant. The concepts you deliver are amazing. Plz keep doing the good work. we love your capability to deliver complicated stuff in such a lucid fashion.
I just graduated from college and I’m about to go into my first professional job, thank you so much for these insights sir!!
Akshath you are really good. I’m binge watching your videos. Thanks for making quality content like this. I’m liking all your videos and hitting thumbs up as well.
Akshat I loveeeeeeedd this video! Sach may I can't help emphasize this more! Keep making such great videos!!!! The way you say all the right things really pulls me to watch each and every one of your videos!
Thank you so much 😀
Sir,thank you for making this video. It was so easy to understand and the way you explained, it kept me engaged through the entire video.I am 20 years old. Today I'll surely make a plan for saving n investing so that i can retire early😊.
4 percent rule is fine for countries like USA, where inflation is 1 or 2 percent. To adapt this calculation for countries like India, you need to take inflation into account. You might argue that you are going to invest the nest egg in the stock market but it is highly volatile. Again psychology of people wins over numbers.
Absolutely agree with you Sathish. A quality of life needing 25k/month today would translate into 50k/month in coming 10 years (assuming 7% inflation an year). Plus he doesn't even talk about adding dependents (children etc) and meeting their expenses in future such as education, marriage etc.
@@sukrit1708 In a country like India , inflation rate is 6% only on paper. The reality is much different. Post second wave , prices of most items have increased by 25-30% in a few months. On the top of it , there is no relaxation provided by the government for a common man. The city where you live also plays an important role in deciding upon your early retirement. In cities like Delhi and Mumbai , the corpus needs to be huge and one has to be extremely adaptable to learning the financial concepts so that money can be generated from equity markets etc. regularly.
So simple so good so enlightening.
Your videos are like watching a tv series daily something interesting comes up. By far this is one of the most rich content channel on TH-cam.
Where is the element of inflation considered in all this math?
Expenses of 50K per month today might sound like a decent amount. It's peanuts 10-15 years down the lane.
Put in stocks that may help you on match the inflation & give growth also
Inflation is built into the Trinity study. Simply put, your will gradually go up but your portfolio of investments will go up too. Please read it in depth it will really help you clarify things.
Stocks give around 11-13% if you invested smartly inflation is 5-6% you will always earn 6%,as the inflation rises so will ur income as long as you spend under 6%
I just have to come to your channel to get my daily dose of learning. Thanks a lot for such insightful video
Thank you sir for giving us immense knowledge on financial freedom. I always wished to have a mentor like you. Thankfully god listened to me . We all are arjuns and you are our dronacharya. Thank you again :)

Summary
1. Estimate your monthly expenditure
Expenses estimate + Quality estimate - determine what amount is ?
Retirement portfolio / Investment of at least 1 cr if you are withdrawing money 4 % every year - it will last till 30 years.
2. How much you are saving -
Limit your recurring expenses (Track them), track your age, start building your portfolio.
3. What percentage of salary to be saved
If you able to save 70% for 10 years then can retire if quality of life is consistent.
4. Basics/Crash course
Earn a lot, cut down your expenses, quit consumerism, at least 70 percent to be saved, explore parallel source of income/side income (like upwork)
Hi Akshat, we need to consider inflation as well. Today 25k can be good enough for quality life but for the same lifestyle we would need more money when we retire.🤔
in just 2 days I'm addicted to your channel.. keep sharing your knowledge!
I appreciate your efforts and the perspective you trying to bring in, however I'm curious to know if inflation was considered here, it being soaring high these days. Also even if we beat it by generating an alpha, how sustainable it would be.
Good question let me explain u.
U r investing 1lakh in 2021,the current inflation rate is 6%.So in order to beat the inflation rate next year u gotta invest 1lakh 6 thousand,similarly in 2022 inflation rate becomes 8%..then u gotta invest in 2023the 8% of what the total amount u r investing in year 2022(i.e 1lakh 6thousand)😇
He is in an imaginary euphoric state and copying numbers.
Just like theory in a textbook.
I appreciate your sincere dedication in preparation for the video. It's very helpful.
There are other factors to consider like Inflation, Variable Income/Expenses as it’s highly impractical to have a constant expense over a long period of time. Also the Income should also increase along with Inflation.
But nevertheless it’s a good starting point to plan for early retirement
So for instance if you are getting a very conservative return of 10% (generally from S&P 500 or TSX Index), and you are just walking out with 4% from that growth corpus, there is a huge gap left. This gap accounts for inflation + any unforeseen issues in the economy. Ideally, a 10-12% return is achievable across all markets. As the base amount compounds, the amount that you withdraw + inflation is all factored-in. So the method is sound, what is required is consistency from our end. Hope this helps in someway :)
@@tsk12171 Well I didn’t complain or contradict on the method suggested. I just pointed out that Expenses can’t be fixed and projected over the years. There are many components which could increase the expenses drastically when compared to the income. Example: 1. Tuition fees of kids can increase steadily and it most probably higher than inflation.
2. Health insurance premiums increases with age
So in general expenses would mostly be higher than inflation which in turn would suggest that it would take longer than the calculated retirement age or the income should increase year on year beating the inflation comfortably.
Also this process assumes that we should not enter into any long term loans like home loan/car loan till the early retirement else it would delay the goal even further.
Though the process looks good on paper and convincing. There are practical difficulties in following it in disciplined and dedicated manner.
@@chikku18india these points struck me too but than I realized that he is talking about individual retirement while the other half is still working full time (I assume). If both the spouses are working in this way , than the corpus needs to be pretty high for family.
@@tsk12171 10% return? Per year? Only? Lol better invest in MFs then.
@@jinfin221 I was talking about the S&P500 index and TSX composite in the west just to generalise the returns. In India, we get a far higher return simply by investing in the right stocks. In the west markets have stagnated compared to emerging markets with untapped growth (like India) :). And it was a fairly conservative assumption, haha !
Realistic and proof originating video with a very strong framework of strategies and models. Beautiful!! I agree saving is the 🔑 and Earning more could be done by developing and enhancing skills. Thank you.
TH-cam was created for this channel to come up and be the CHANGE!!
Thanks buddy :)
Great Video Akshat. it explains in crystal clear manner the nest egg required to lead a certain quality of life. But readers please bear in mind the amount excludes the money you need for other goals like kids education, their marriage (which in India is a must) and other material assets you may need before you retire. The only way is to work your butt off to create multiple income streams (forget work-life balance and think of work-work balance), and have as much money for other goals too before you think of retiring.
Why you ignored Time Value of Money and Inflation rate. As returns are not TVM or inflated by years stably.
Thanks for coming to TH-cam and sharing loads of insights. Very happy seeing your subscribers growing everyday exponentially :-))
Much appreciated!

@@rameshraj5936 yeah rent it from BBT
Already on the path, videos like these keep bringing in the much needed motivation time to time.
My calculation was. Take current monthly expenses, calculate yearly. Compound it by 5-7% for inflation for the number of years left to ur target retirement years. 25k monthly, 3L yearly expenses now would be 5L after 10yrs. If one can manage to make investments with 10% return/annum after 10yrs. He would need a nest egg of 50L. If 5% returns, need 1cr nest egg. Live off from the returns and the capital stays intact.
let me ask u a question how can someone live by just spending 25k a month . he ll be having home loan and car loan added together which make it nearly 60k a month

Thank you!
Wow this is detailed.

Great content Akshat.

Thanks a lot 😊
Hi Akshat, expense *33 gives us retirement nest egg… but what we missed is the inflation…. Today’s 100 might be equal to 10 rs or less… so 1Cr might be equal to just 10lac…(hypothetically speak)… so what amount is good say after 30 years from now?
Good point. I was also think the same
Example and studies used in this video are from countries that do not witness much inflation (US AND UK).
Other points to be factored in are
1. Expenditure will never stay constant even though lifestyle may. Eg more kids, parental expenditure.
2. Also to start doing something you like (akshat definition of retirement) will always require some expenditure. Whether it be upskilling, or investing something for your post retirement career
If prices go up then its safe to assume the investment value goes up too so it cancels out each other and inflation is around 6-7% avg but stock indexes return avg around 12-15%..sooo the investment value will be beating the inflation..and lets say total 1 cr is your calculated goal and every year u take out 3% and inflation is 6%..so u will be losing 9% every year but indian stock indexes avg is around 12-15% sooo every year your 1 Cr will be growing
@@prateekr.k6294 good analysis … but ur seeing only with respect to share market… and everyone won’t do that… some might choose MF or gold or may be simple FD… irrespective of that the returns are different… but as price increases, the investment value may or may not increase… that depends on ur investment… So I think Akshat should consider the 6-7% of inflation when he calculated the 3lac with 25k monthly expense…
@@Rkd01989haa bro but thats one more step after financial freedom where you have to beat 6-7% inflation and some extra percentages to grow your corpus so your 3% expenses raise with inflation
I've not known about building an alternative source of income until 6 months ago. I really liked how you motivate your viewers to think of prospects of letting money work for you than you working for money sooner in life. I just wish.. I'd have heard of something like this sooner.. better late than never. Good job @Akshat !
Minimising cost was and still has been my go to mantra, I had been using a 2008 model alto for my office commute, an year after my MBA I landed a job in amazon and was saving a really good chunk of my salary. However, my family softly pushed me into buying a brand new car only one year into the start of my career. Now my car's EMI, maintenance and fuel cost combined costs me ~40k monthly. I live with my parents only hence don't have any heavy expenses. But I feel this purchase decision has pushed me years behind my plan. Any suggestion which can cut my losses short?
Start skipping ur Breakfast.
Sir, that was a great explanation. I appreciate that. 👏👏👏
But in the calculations you should include inflation too. Because in 12-15 years the cost of living is likely to be doubled.
Please come up with a video including the inflation rate too. That'll give an absolute clear perspective to all your viewers about how much money they will need to spend monthly at the time of retirement.
Thanks in advance. ♥️
Frankly speaking , the cost of living is expected to be doubled in 3-5 years itself. Inflation of 6% is only on paper , reality is quite different.

This video is based on US economy....where interest rate is almost zero....in India if u consider FD interest rate of 6% p.a , a corpus of 2 crore will give an interest of ₹12 lakhs per year....1 lakh per month...and ur capital is intact
FD interest rates were 9-10% just few years before. 6% is now who knows what it'll be after 10 years 😅.
bro india me inflation bhi hai
In India taxes are high.
India is also gradually going towards developed nation category....20 -25 years back, u could get 10% pa interest for FD s...Next 20-25 years, we can see about 2% interest rates....by that time, about 30-40% indian public would be in stock market..now only about 3-4% Indians in stock market and MFs
Hey Akshat, although the numbers make sense but I wanted to understand if that takes into consideration the money depreciation/inflation rate.
Practically 25K today will be equivalent to 10K after 10yrs leading to a dip in QOL. Also the study ignores various scenarios such as child education, vacation or other life events. So we must need an additional corpus amount to drive these additional needs.
Any thoughts/logics as how to estimate that corpus will be appreciated.
Thanks
Thanks for your genuine life advice. You are a real gem. ❤️
I appreciate that!
That's very nice presentation Akshath. This is what people should know early in life coz financial literacy is so poor among college goers.
It would have been more accurate if u would have included inflation in the calculations, as the time horizons are in decades. A person spending 25K a month will have to spend 1 lakh per month after 20 years considering a similar lifestyle throughout. Anyways...thanks for this informative video.
Hmm, the average investment corpus (say 1cr by the age of 39yrs)beats inflation. Say, for example, a decent mutual fund, will almost always not only beat inflation but also give some returns over and above inflation figures in a functional economy like India. Right?
@@3010amit you are right. But I was pointing out the expenses per month which Akshat was calculating. This will always change with time even keeping your lifestyle same. The '1 crore' calculation which involves 25K*12*33 should include the depreciation of rupee. '1 crore' today might have the purchasing power of 70 lakhs after 10 years.
I agree with your definition of retirement. I have targeted that by 35 I will make such corpus so that I dont have to work hard but just enough and what I want to work for
Hey Akshat, thanks for the amazing content.
Quick question - Did you take into account the impact of reducing spend power of the monthly expenditure? I might be happy with let's say 25k per month but after 30 years, I would need more than 25k to maintain same quality of life accounting for inflation.
Oh! now I got a clarity about the best time to retire. Thanks Akshat.
