Lesson No 1 (Income Vs Debt)
Lesson No 1 (Income Vs Debt)
🔓 Welcome to the Escape from the Matrix Series
In India,
New tax Regime (12.75 lakhs no tax):
Old/New tax Regime:
Earning 13–24 lakh/year? You could be paying 20–30% in income tax.
That means 2–4.5 lakh or more goes to taxes every year.
Home loan, personal loan, or business loan interest usually ranges from:
Home loan: ~8–9%
Personal loan: ~10–16%
Business loan: varies, but similar range
Interest is paid only on the borrowed amount, and often over several years.
How to use Debt?
Take a 10 lakh personal loan at 11% interest
You’ll pay 1,10,000 per year as interest.
Put that 10 lakh into a fixed deposit (FD) at 7% (suggestion 7Lakh FD and 3Lakh in stocks and Mutual funds from Day 1)
You’ll earn 70,000 per year (5,833.33/month).
Take the 5,833.33/month FD interest and invest it into mutual funds/stocks for 1–2 years (Suggestion 3 - 4 years)
The returns will grow enough to offset the 40,000 gap between loan interest and FD return.
"You worked all year and paid 30% tax, I took a loan, paid 0% tax, invested the interest, and walked away with more money." 😂
That’s how you start escaping the matrix. You're not just playing the game—you're learning to bend the rules within the system.
