Not Buying Insurance Early\u003C/strong>\u003C/span>\u003C/h2>\u003Cp>Many people wait too long to get insurance. They think they don’t need it when they’re young and healthy.

Choosing the Cheapest Policy\u003C/strong>\u003C/span>\u003C/h2>\u003Cp>It’s tempting to go for the lowest price, but cheap policies might not cover all your needs.

Not Reading the Fine Print\u003C/strong>\u003C/span>\u003C/h2>\u003Cp>People often skip reading the policy details. This can lead to surprises later—like realizing something important isn’t covered.

Preparing for Unforeseen Expenses with Inflation- Ready Planning\u003C/strong>\u003C/span>\u003C/h2>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan lang=\"EN-IN\" lang=\"EN-IN\">Retirement isn't just about covering basic living costs. You need to account for rising expenses due to inflation, potentially significant healthcare costs, and unexpected emergencies. Inflation-ready planning is critical because the value of money decreases over time. What seems like a sufficient amount today might fall short twenty or thirty years later.\u003C/span>\u003C/p>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan lang=\"EN-IN\" lang=\"EN-IN\">Early planning allows you to factor these future uncertainties into your savings goals. Aiming for a corpus that accounts for inflation and potential medical needs builds a safety net. Ensuring a steady cash flow post- retirement is vital. Instruments designed to provide predictable income for retirees, like the \u003C/span>\u003Ca href=\"https://www.shriramlife.com/life-insurance/immediate-annuity-plus\" target=\"_blank\">\u003Cspan lang=\"EN-IN\" lang=\"EN-IN\">Shriram Life Immediate Annuity Plus Plan\u003C/span>\u003C/a>\u003Cspan lang=\"EN-IN\" lang=\"EN-IN\"> (UIN: 128N063V07), can play a key role in managing these challenges by providing regular payouts.\u003C/span>\u003C/p>\u003Ch2>\u003Cspan lang=\"EN-IN\" lang=\"EN-IN\">\u003Cstrong>4.

Diversification means spreading your savings across asset classes- equity, debt, real estate, gold, and insurance-based plans- to balance risk and reward. \u003C/span>\u003C/p>\u003Ch3>\u003Cspan lang=\"EN-IN\" lang=\"EN-IN\">\u003Cstrong>What diversification could look like:\u003C/strong>\u003C/span>\u003C/h3>\u003Cul>\u003Cli>\u003Cspan lang=\"EN-IN\" lang=\"EN-IN\">Equity funds for high growth.\u003C/span>\u003C/li>\u003Cli>\u003Cspan lang=\"EN-IN\" lang=\"EN-IN\">Debt instruments for stability.\u003C/span>\u003C/li>\u003Cli>\u003Cspan lang=\"EN-IN\" lang=\"EN-IN\">Insurance-backed annuities for guaranteed income.\u003C/span>\u003C/li>\u003Cli>\u003Cspan lang=\"EN-IN\" lang=\"EN-IN\">Gold or real estate as alternative stores of value.\u003C/span>\u003C/li>\u003C/ul>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan lang=\"EN-IN\" lang=\"EN-IN\">The right mix depends on your goals, risk tolerance, and retirement timeline. Starting early gives your diversified investments time to weather market fluctuations and potentially generate better overall returns. It is also wise to add stable, lower-risk components.

Starting early with tax-efficient retirement plans allows you to maximise these advantages over your earning years.\u003C/span>\u003C/p>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan lang=\"EN-IN\" lang=\"EN-IN\">Contributions to specific plans, like pension plans or certain insurance policies, often qualify for deductions under sections like 80C of the Income Tax Act, reducing tax liabilities annually. \u003C/span>\u003C/p>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan lang=\"EN-IN\" lang=\"EN-IN\">Furthermore, the maturity proceeds or withdrawals from some plans might also be tax-exempt under prevailing laws.

You need to account for rising expenses due to inflation, potentially significant healthcare costs, and unexpected emergencies. Inflation-ready planning is critical because the value of money decreases over time. What seems like a sufficient amount today might fall short twenty or thirty years later.\u003C/span>\u003C/p>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan lang=\\\"EN-IN\\\" lang=\\\"EN-IN\\\">Early planning allows you to factor these future uncertainties into your savings goals.

You need to account for rising expenses due to inflation, potentially significant healthcare costs, and unexpected emergencies. Inflation-ready planning is critical because the value of money decreases over time. What seems like a sufficient amount today might fall short twenty or thirty years later.\u003C/span>\u003C/p>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan lang=\\\"EN-IN\\\" lang=\\\"EN-IN\\\">Early planning allows you to factor these future uncertainties into your savings goals.
