These are not aspirations but you are goals, desires and dreams and I ( Mamta Khanna) as a CFPCM can assure you confidently that your dreams and aspirations can be answered and achieved by financial planning.
The Planning benefits lies in fulfillment and achievement of these aspirations and goals confidently.
Why Financial planning?
I always say financial planning is required because you can’t go back in time and correct those investment mistakes.
As once the time gone never comes back. Similarly your hard earned ( Saved) money will give you better returns as it could have.
If you come to know about the inadequacy of money when it is required most is very painful. Therefore it is better to have a financial plan in your hand.

Every second person is tensed over his investments. How are they performing? Does he need to do more, invest more but in lack of knowledge, research and time it becomes difficult to understand and comprehend the meaningless investment which might not give you good returns in long term.

Financial Planning helps you in every aspect of your financial life from safety to money preservation to reducing loan faster to build wealth over a period of time. It also help you to realize your dreams in a shortest possible time.
For example if I suggest a 35 year person with the salary of Rs 100000 per month to make a SIP of 70000 for month to have good retirement corpus than obviously it will be difficult for him.
But instead if I make a way for him to start a monthly investment with 20000 and increase the SIP on annual basis
or
Make a additional contribution each year or after six months.
This will reduce the pressure and anxiety for the person and help him to achieve his goals comfortably and confidently.
REMEMBER, One can reach his destination,
Only when he knows where to reach.
