Puppy Wealth (or) Elephant Wealth?
An elephant and a dog became pregnant at the same time. 3 months down the line the dog gave birth to six puppies.
Six months later the dog was pregnant again, and nine months on it gave birth to another dozen puppies.
The pattern continued.
On the 18th month, the dog approached the elephant questioning, - "Are you sure that you are pregnant?. We became pregnant on the same date, I have given birth 3 times to a dozen puppies and they are now grown to become big dogs, yet you are still pregnant. What’s going on?”
The elephant replied - "There is something I want you to understand. What I am carrying is not a puppy but an elephant. I give birth to only once in 2 years. When my baby hits the ground, the earth feels it. When my baby crosses the road, human beings stop and watch in admiration, what I carry draws attention.
So what I’m carrying is mighty and great.”
Likewise, if you break your SIP / MF in 1 or 2 years, you will get puppy wealth and if you keep your SIP/MF for 10 to 15 years you make elephant wealth.
Think before you stop your MF/SIP mid way.
You want to settle for puppy wealth that lives for 7 to 8 years or do you want elephant wealth that will stay for 100 years?
Think long-term; Become a better investor.
