MY dog Can Walk on Water

 

Frog Story

 # FROG STORY #

Put a frog into a vessel filled with water and start heating the water. As the temperature of the water begins to rise, the frog adjust its body temperature accordingly. The frog keeps adjusting its body temperature with the increasing temperature of water. Just when the water is about to reach the boiling point, the frog decides to jump out. The frog tries to jump but it is unable to do so because it has lost all its strength in adjusting with the rising water temperature. Very soon the frog dies. What killed the Frog? Think about it!

I know many of us will say the boiling water. But the truth about what killed the Frog was its own inability to decide when to jump out.

Likewise, in investing too one has to stay invested, have to be patient, etc. but that does not mean one stops monitoring and making course correcting decisions like asset allocation and reallocation based on changing market conditions.

While these decisions may be few and far between, but they have a huge impact on whether we are able to meet our goals or not.

This is where investors need Financial Distributors; for the few and far between decisions that can change the course of their lives.

Story of the Week: To do Much in LIfe time

 

Small is Beautiful

'Small is Beautiful' applies in investing too

There was once a tree at the edge of a forest that had deep roots, a thick trunk and wide branches. A lot of birds sat on its branches and passers-by sat under the cool shade that the tree provided to beat the scorching sun. At the foot of the tree there was a small plant that seemed slender and delicate and swayed at the slightest breeze.

The big tree was very proud of its achievements and often mocked the smaller plant. It even advised the small plant to follow in its footsteps and spread its roots wider. To this, the smaller plant smiled and remarked that it was safe just the way it was. The big tree had a hearty laugh at this thinking that the small plant had lost its mind.

But the big tree had spoken too soon. A few days later, a big hurricane struck the forest. The hurricane was so strong that it uprooted the thickest of trees, including the big tree at the edge of the forest. However, the small plant had managed to twist and turn with the strong gushing winds and survive the storm!

The story of the big tree carries a lesson for equity investors. There are many who feel that one needs to invest large sums in equities to create wealth over the long term. But this may not be true. Even smaller sums invested regularly over a stretch of time can help to compound and yield a large corpus.

Similar to the small plant which braved the hurricane, you too can create wealth despite bouts of volatility by choosing the SIP route. The only condition is that you need to be persistent and withstand the negative periods of the market. We therefore say that SIP is like a good EMI – an investment and not an instalment. Just as we are committed to pay our EMI, we should continue our SIPs for longer periods of 10, 20, 30 years and create wealth in the process. So if you believe that small is beautiful, then SIP is the way forward to meet your long term investment goals.

The little boy loved to come and play with the tree everyday. He waters the tree and love it. He also climbed the tree , ate the mangoes, took a nap under the shadow... He loved the tree and the tree loved to play with him.

Time went by, The little boy grew, and he no longer played around the tree.
One day, the boy came back to the tree with a sad look on his face. "Come here and tell me what you need?" The boy replied, "I want toys. I need money to buy them." "Sorry, I don't have money... but you can pick all my mangoes and sell them so you will have money." The boy was so excited. He picked all the mangoes on the tree and left happily.

One day, the boy grown into a man returned. The tree was so excited. "How can I help?" the tree asked. I have to work for my family. We need a house for shelter. Can you help me?" "Sorry, I don't have a house, but you can chop off my branches to build your house." So the man cut all the branches off the tree and left happily. The tree was glad to see him happy

One hot summer day, the man returned and the tree was delighted. "How can I help you now? " The tree said. "I am sad and getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat?" "Use my trunk to build your boat. You can sail far away and be happy." So the man cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing
