If it's a group insurance, take 20lac and add a top up for 50lac later after waiting period is completed

See the health conditions of ur parents, if nothing serious,10L should be more than sufficient. E.g In case of my parents, both are senior citizens but i never had to claim more than 3-4 lakhs. So 10L should be fine. (But again it depends). In addition to base 10L, u can also opt for super top up of 40L/90L as you wish but keep deductible as 10L, u’ll get it cheap

Pro tip - don’t include you or your spouse in parent’s policy, keep one floter for you-spouse-kids and one for parents to save on premiums

I let the shame spiral get the better of me this week. Realized that I wasn’t going to be able to meet a deadline because I’d mismanaged my time and the project was more complex than I though. Rather than admit the mistake and suggest a new deadline, I just kept saying I’d send it tomorrow/later/so on. And then I stayed up basically three days straight working, which has only made me slower and more inefficient. So I’m still not done and now I’m in the pits of anxiety and exhaustion hell. FML.

Good evening all,
With my partner we are considering making a move to the countryside of Switzerland, with a gorgeous RE project offering incredible views on immaculate mountains and lake. However, it is far away, and will require 1h+ train/car commute vs. 10 min biking right now. We are scared it will bite us back at some point, although COVID helped w/ remote working being a new norm. The project will be done 2024, so I hope to have a more relax job by then. Any similar experience to share?

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
