   Pankaj,

    

   Here is the calculation:

    

   Invest for 25 years in long term pure equity funds like an HDFC 200 or likes (if their tenure gets over then flip to a similar type) – You shouldnt liquidate at least for 5-7 years after investing.

    

   I have taken 20% annual growth (ONLY happens when u stay invested long term – harmonised – as amply shown in tables after tables in financial papers):

    

   Year	Amount Invested	Growth 20%
   1	100000	120000
   2	120000	144000
   3	144000	172800

   @ Alok,

   Thanks. The information is useful for many who are yet to understand the merits of long-term investments; but, probably, this would be true and applicable for those who have spare money to keep aside and forget it. Also, the the age factor is important. For someone who can keep aside Rs.1 lakh at the age of, say, 28 years, he would be rewarded with a retirement bonus of a Crore +.

   I recommend that you also start the “Rodinhood Fund Management”, as the faith and trust has already been achieved by you.
