 Rules of Wealth Creation-1


1) *Rule of 72*

No. of yrs required to double your money at a given rate, U just divide 72 by interest rate

Eg, if you want to know how long it will take to double your money at 8% interest, divide 72 by 8 and get 9 yrs

At 6% rate, it will take 12 yrs

At 9% rate, it will take 8 yrs

2) *Rule of 70*

Divide 70 by current inflation rate to know how fast the value of your investment will get reduced to half its present value.

Inflation rate of 7% will reduce the value of your money to half in 10 years.

3) *4% Rule for Financial Freedom*

Corpus Reqd = 25 times of your estimated Annual Expenses.

Eg- if your annual expense after 50 years of age is 500,000 and you wish to take VRS then corpus with you required is 1.25 cr.

Put 50% of this into fixed income & 50% into equity.

Withdraw 4% every yr, i.e.5 lac.

This rule works for 96% of time in 30 yr period
