Don't make my same mistakes if you want to retire rich!

Au must read if you're new to investing!

Hello Coldplay India fans,

Most of the audience of this newsletter falls in the age range- 18-25 which is the right time for starting financial investment journey.

When I first started investing- I followed multiple finance influencers from Youtube and Instagram (you know them too!) and chose only top and best performing funds. I had around 10 mutual funds!

I didn’t know what I actually owned - and many funds were holding the same stocks. What does this mean? Due to fund overlaps, my returns were not that great (barely making 7-8%)!

After a year or so- I learnt something powerful:

You don’t need 10 different mutual funds to grow your wealth.
You just need 3 - if they cover different parts of the market.

This is the strategy I recommend for beginners and steady investors.

You should read this post, if

[1] You invest in mutual funds or planning to invest in mutual funds

[2] Your portfolio is a mess or portfolio is not giving anticipated returns

[3] You spend too much time on selecting the mutual funds
