Hi, 1 - Kindly provide details of your LIC policies (Plan name, commencement date & tenure). If your wife is not an earning member of your family, she does not require life insurance cover. 2 - Do you have Personal Accident insurance cover? What about health insurance for self/family? 3 - ELSS funds are one of the best long-term wealth accumulation tools and can also be used to claim tax deduction under section 80c. Kindly note that investments under ELSS funds are locked for 3 years. Kindly read below articles and you may revert to me; http://www.relakhs.com/calculate-kids-education-goal-amount/ http://www.relakhs.com/retirement-planning-calculator-3-easy-steps/http://www.relakhs.com/personal-financial-planning-articles-list/ http://www.relakhs.com/top-6-best-elss-tax-saving-mutual-funds-invest-2016/ http://www.relakhs.com/list-of-best-investment-options-schemes-in-india/
