Ram Retirement Planning 2008
 

K. V. Ramaswamy and Vijay S. Choksi
Quadratic Financial Services Pvt. Ltd.

Retirement planning is going to be a very big problem in the days to come.

Looking at the factors like:

  1. Consumption going up

  2. Expenses going up

  3. Inflation going up

  4. Income coming down in relative terms

  5. Lifestyles changing in favour of consumerism

  6. Luxuries requirements increasing

  7. Competition very furious in all segments of the economy

  8. World wide focus on India and its huge middle class

  9. No Safety net from the Govt. as in other countries

  10. No planning of long term objectives being done in a systematic manner
