My 1st house purchase (Flat)
Salary 80K, I save 25K,
Purchase cost - 80L
Savings - 40L
Friends Relatives - 10L (if they give)
Home Loan - 30L, EMI-25K (20years)(wil pre pay 1L/year)

Main confusion is, we have 20L Gold, is it wise to sell Gold and purchase a house now. so that we just have to take loan for 10L, as it will reduce EMI burden a tons. Asked ChatGPT, it told to sell gold and purchase the Flat.

what do you guys suggest??

No do not sell your gold. Holding gold now and for long term is a wise idea. Better take the emi squeeze now as your salary will increase in subsequent years and alleviate your burden. Amd gold appreciation in the future will help increase your net worth.

Hi fishes,
I'm 22 and planning to take a life insurance. I'm comparing all policies and max life seems attractive as it has good claim settlement ratio and less premiums. But there is no office near our area. My worry is that if there is a need to claim in future, it can be done all online by my nominee? Is it recommended to take policy online in any platform(like policybazaar)?
Other options I'm considering are SBI life, HDFC life which offices are available in my locality.
Please guide
