Dreaming of early retirement? Let's uncover the real numbers for a comfortable life by 55. What does ₹70,000/month *really* mean?
That ₹70,000/month today won't buy the same lifestyle in 25 years. At 6% inflation, you'd need ₹3,00,300/month to maintain purchasing power!
To achieve ₹3,00,300/month (inflation-adjusted) with a 4% safe withdrawal rate, you need a corpus of ~₹9 CRORES! Don't worry, it's achievable.
A constant SIP for ₹9 Cr over 25 years (12% return) is ~₹61k/month. A Step-Up SIP (e.g., ₹40k + 12% annual increase) gets you ₹7.5-8 Cr. Start early!
Start with growth-oriented equity funds (Flexi-cap, Large-Mid Cap, Index Funds). Near retirement, de-risk with Balanced Advantage/Debt funds. Diversify wisely!
Don't underestimate inflation, delay starting, ignore Step-Up SIPs, chase past returns, or forget to review/rebalance. Consistency is key to success!
