Learn To Invest ( L T I )

n investor without investment objectives is like a traveler without a destination.

o not save what is left after spending. Spend what is left after saving.

- Warren Buffett Many of us intend to invest but do not know how to invest? or where to park money. As Warren Buffett says “Spend what is left after saving”. Before investment one should understand what is return? If you are not sure about the returns, you end up in wrong investments.

- For example, in India it is widely accepted that Bank Fixed Deposit is the safest investment with a decent return. But if you do not understand what is inflation you may lose money. Then, here comes, what is Inflation?. Inflation is ‘rapidly’ squeezing the purchasing power of your money?. Let me explain with a small illustration: - Situation on Day 1 Bank balance - Rs.1,00,000 Price of Dosa - Rs.50 No. of Dosas you can buy - 2,000

4

- Situation after 1 year (with principal included) (a) Case 1 (Interest - 10%, Inflation - 10%) Interest earned - Rs.10,000 Total savings - Rs.1,10,000

New price of Dosa - Rs.55 No. of Dosas you can buy with interest income - 182 No. of dosas you can buy with principal - 1818 Total number of Dosas you can buy - 2000 - (b) Case 2 (Interest - 8%, Inflation - 5.50%) Interest earned - Rs.8,000 Total savings - Rs.1,08,000 New price of Dosa - Rs.52.75 No. of Dosas you can buy with interest income - 152 No. of Dosas you can buy with principal - 1896 Total number of Dosas you can buy – 2048.

- If interest rate is < inflation rate, what you saved is eroded despite you receiving a sum called interest.

So the investor’s return is calculated after deducting the inflation. “Little drops make the mighty ocean”. If a person invests Rs.5000/- per month for 26 years with 12% return, he becomes a Crorepathi. If your inflation rate is 6% you must aim for an 18% return to achieve your goal.

The simple way to invest is “Invest” with diversification. Do not put all the eggs in one basket. Hence invest with various avenues and try to achieve the goal. Some of the avenues which pays high are Stock Market and Mutual Funds.

The business of Stock Investing thrives on these three factors – Intelligence, Psychology and Information. After closely observing many successful stock investors, I have realized that having ‘only one’ of these traits could actually do a lot more harm to your portfolio than you can imagine. You need at least ‘two of the above traits to formulate your style of making money in the markets. Of course, if you manage to master all three, then I see no reason why you could not be the next ________ (fill in the name of who you think has been the most successful stock investor of all times) STAY INVESTED.. STAY WEALTHY...

ONCE AGAIN AS THE INVESTMENT GURU WARREN BUFFETT SAYS : ONLY TWO RULES FOR INVESTING… “RULE NO. 1: NEVER LOSE MONEY.

RULE NO. 2: NEVER FORGET RULE NO.1”
