Why Start Investing?

There are many types of investments available today. Some people like investing in stocks, others prefer mutual funds. But why do people start investing? After all, it requires effort, discipline and patience.

Well, everyone who wants to secure their financial future should consider investing. This is because as inflation rises the value of your money keeps reducing. While the percentage of inflation may seem small to you it has a brutal impact on your savings.

You should start investing to try and earn enough returns to meet if not beat inflation. If you invest using the Cube Wealth App you will easily be able to invest and earn healthy returns no matter what your investment needs are.

What Are My Investment Options?

To begin with, there is no one best investment method, there are several best ways to invest money. Let’s look at some basics:

  1. Stocks
  2. Mutual Funds
  3. Fixed Deposits
  4. Gold
  5. ETFs or Exchange Traded Funds
  6. Government Schemes
  7. Real Estate

There are many more, but to keep things simple let us stop at these 7 for now. Each of these investment options has its own benefits and drawbacks. You can read about these and other investment options in these stories:

What Do I Invest In?

Your investment approach needs to be different based on multiple factors. For example, investing for beginners will be very different from the investment plans of a seasoned investor.

We recommend you email a Cube Wealth Advisor for a free consultation. He or she will be able to understand your financial goals, risk appetite and the time duration you should look to invest for.

However, investing in mutual funds via a SIP or systematic investment plan is an investment method that works for all types of investors.
