Скачать или смотреть Where to Park Money for Up To 3 Years? | My 2×2 Mutual Fund Framework

Where should you invest money that you’ll need in the next few months or within 1–2 years?

Whether it’s school fees, an international vacation, a planned purchase, or money parked to invest during market dips, most people default to a savings account or fixed deposit.
But when you look closely, these options often fail on post-tax returns and inflation-adjusted growth.

In this video, I explain short-term mutual fund investment options and compare them with traditional choices like FDs and savings accounts — with a clear focus on risk, liquidity, tax efficiency, and returns.
