How to become rich in 2025: Building wealth is like running a marathon, not a sprint. While there’s no magic formula for getting rich quickly, mutual funds ( MFs) offer a diversified approach to investing that is ideal for long-term financial goals and helps investors amass wealth.
Mutual fund investments are indirect exposure to the stock market. On behalf of mutual fund investors, their fund manager makes investments in the stock market and manages the portfolio assets. Many investors invest in mutual funds as they help them beat the average growth of inflation in the long term.
Money experts believe that investors should have a 7-year investment horizon and use a combination of large-cap, mid-cap, and small-cap funds.

Money experts say that SIPs are highly effective for long-term investments.”SIPs help to smooth out the portfolio returns through rupee cost averaging, and SIPs are deemed best for investment. In other words, regardless of the state of the market, more units are bought at low prices and less at high prices, which ultimately equalises the average cost of those investments,” said Siddharth Maurya, Founder & Managing Director of Vibhavangal Anukulakara Private Limited.
