FD

You can try for debt funds, govt. securities/bonds.
But I would say 8% on FD is not bad at all.
Equities/MF would be a risky bet. I doubt it’ll give any significant return in the next 2 years. Another thing you can try is to look for opportunities in equities where you can buy low and sell high in positional trades.

Hi Fishes !

I feel like I've been living under a rock for ~5 yrs. I was happy and blowing off money with the thinking that I'll start saving once I start earning more.

Just realised that could've started early. I'm in mid 20s and thinking about investment. Tried watching YouTube videos. But I have pretty basic questions :
1. Where do I even start?
2. What %age of income should I invest?

I hope I'm not late.
