Wealth creation needs regular savings which has to be invested well to create ample wealth for future needs. The issue is how do you maintain this constant supply of savings to your wealth creation factory? Here is a thought most financial experts echo. “To create wealth, one has to invert the traditional thinking that savings should be done after meeting all the expenses. On the contrary, expenses should be met after adequate money has been saved on a monthly basis,” says Rajesh Iyer, CEO, DHFL Pramerica Mutual Fund. But what is the rationale behind this approach? “Saving alone is not enough for wealth creation. Money needs to be invested systematically in assets like equities and equity mutual funds that beat inflation over the long term. For wealth creation, one needs to stay invested for a reasonably the long time,” adds Iyer. Just in case you think that’s a big ask, Sampath Reddy, chief investment officer, Bajaj Allianz Life Insurance has some handy tips for you.
