Why should you start investing now?


Article by :- Sonia Taneja

 You must have seen the various advertisements that say you should invest but in those advertisements, they must invite you to invest basically to increase their sales or get you registered with them. But do you actually know why you should invest?

Let us know about the facts and reasons that clear about why we should start investing now.

These are the reasons that can make you to go for investments:

1.      Real Learning about the field of Investment:  whatever the courses we done or through physical classes, but the real learning is got after spending some pennies on investments. If you make the investments and don’t have the idea about anything either to increase it or not, then even you learn about how the market works and that gives you the knowledge of market and give the courage to make better investment in future and even if once made investment reaches to the loss, at least second times you know like where to stop and how to achieve the break even. Timely and continuous investment makes you pro and new experiences help you to make better decisions for investment.

2.     Investment helps to save for future while becoming a guard for inflation: As we know how much the inflation is increasing like if talk about currently 6% and if talk about the investment in saving accounts that is very less as compared to the inflation like hardly banks give 4% interest on savings and fixed deposits gives 6 to 7% and even if it giving 7% , then also , you are saving just 1% for the future but through the investments, even the 10 rupees can make you the millionaire as investments in Wipro 10 years can give that person 6 Crores in today’s time.

3.     Knowing about the reality behind the investments:  if we ask to the parent generation of ours and they will say that investment is risky, it contains so much risk and the whole money can go in vain. yes, they are right at their point of view because 20 years back , the investment was really quite difficult as there was no dematerialization of the accounts and even the stocks were in paper and if one lost that paper , his/her money could really go in vain but if today’s generation speaks that, that’s quite wrong as at recent times , investment has become very smooth and easy as everything is done online and there is no fear of stealing/burning of stock papers  and we young generation has so many sources to do the fundamental analysis of an organization which we can invest by analyzing the nature of business, financial statements of an organization are public and can be checked and analyzed by anyone , I am not talking about the much of technical  analysis but minimum to minimum we can check about the increase or decrease in the profits for the last ten years and apart from that , we have the number of sources to check about the analysis of an organization and even the continuous investments make an investor pro even in technical analysis without seeking any degree.

4.     Start a new business: if you have also the dream of staring your own business and also having that fire in you to start something of your own and money was the constraint, then even you can go for investment and earn that much of returns that may help you to start your business and fulfill your dream.

5.     Supporting others: Yes, it is true that there is  emotional need that other person want you to fulfill by you but money is also equally important and you know it too, that when you are hungry , you cannot fill the stomach of others, so if you are such a person who wants to help society financially, then investment is the great way to moving through this path and you can do for the society much better things and even can teach others how to generate money through investments which even work for whole country to have the balanced growth.

6.      Become a part of a business:  By investing in some business, we become the stakeholder of that company which makes us the part of that organization which make us feel that we are attached to such a reputed organization and not being the profit sharing partners , but we become the stakeholders which is also an important part for an individual as to be the stock holder , it is very precious to become the stakeholder of some reputed organization

7.     Earn money through the money itself: you must have heard of that prose that money invites more money so that the investment made once can give you the more money through which the time value of money as the value of money is going to deteriorated in the future what is it today and that can be sorted out and as we discussed in the earlier point as well that the dreams of a person can be fulfilled such as doing something for the society and for others and achieving the good life.

8.     Financial Security:  there is the need to survive in such an economy where the unemployment is increasing but there is no scope of jobs to be generated on the coming ten years , either it is any degree that we have done , the severe unemployment cant be overcome through these job skills, so the left thing that can generate the money for the survival is the investment , if an individual is earning 100 rupees per day , he must invest rupees 10 in stocks which will become a solid strength for him/her in the times when he/she is not having any job, so in short, the investment give us the financial security.

 

9.     Early the investment, better the retirement: As we can’t work for our whole life, we have to take the decision of retirement at some age and planning about the retirement is equally important to take the decisions of the retirement. Everybody plans their retirement as per their thinking and the savings but if we make the investment at the early stage of our life then we can gain for the future and can live the retirement period very smoothly. This thing can be understood through an example:

For example, there are two persons say A and B

  • A is of age 25 and decided to make the investment and his plan is to retire at the age of 60.
  •  He has Rs. 1, 00,000 to invest.
  •  His investment generate 8%
  •  So, for the 35 years, the interest earned for A would be:- 2, 80,000(it is just the simple interest, CI can be more)
Whereas;

  • B is of age 40 and decided to make the investment and his plan is to retire at the age of 60.
  • He, also has Rs.1, 00,000 to invest.
  • His investment generates 9%.
  • So, for the20 years, the interest earned for B would be:- 1, 80,000 only (it is just the simple interest, CI can even be more)

So, we have seen in the above example that A decided to investment earlier than B and even when his return was less than B still he made more money than B. so, the investment should be made right now if you are in early 20s but you are not late when you are not.

So, these reasons can make you invest right now as now exactly you know why the investment is important for you.

GET UP AND INVEST!

How to draw a trend line?

Trend Lines As technical analysis is built on the assumption that prices trend, the use of  trend lines  is important for both trend identification and confirmation. A trend line is a straight line that connects two or more price points and then extends into the future to act as a line of support or resistance Some Terminology: - Higher highs and  Higher lows:  -  When the peaks and troughs are ascending on a chart, and uptrend can be seen happening. In that uptrend, prices can be seen as higher highs and higher lows. As the uptrend is occurring, prices from the previous period that were seen as highs are even higher than they were before. Lower Highs and  Lower Lows : -  In contrast to overall increase in value that an uptrend indicates, downtrends can be seen with the descending peaks and troughs that a chart shows.
