From Rs 2,500 to Rs 70,000: Pune Investor’s Wealth Lessons
Mayuresh Jadav started investing a small amount of Rs 2,500 each month.
Over time, his income increased and he raised his monthly investment to about Rs 70,000.
He now has financial assets worth around Rs 1.03 crore.
His money came from several places, including mutual funds, EPF, gold, US stocks and property.
He also had to support his parents, help pay for his sister’s wedding and repay loans.
One financial product he bought did not suit him, so he lost money when he left it.
His property has not grown as much as his equity investments, but its rent helps his parents.
The main lesson is to start with what you can afford and increase investments as your income grows.
You do not need a perfect plan if you keep learning and continue investing.
