played a key role in the development of index investing, which made it possible for anyone to invest in mutual funds that mimic the performance of the market as a whole. <strong>His ultimate goal was to reduce the complexity and expense of investing for the average person.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Bogle&#8217;s innovative Vanguard model, mutual fund investors are also co-owners of the funds in which they have invested.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-horizontal is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-1 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-outline\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/link.upstox.com\/nTL28g5QMbdTQ28M6\" style=\"border-radius:50px;color:#0f0027;background-color:#e4fa00\" rel=\"nofollow\"><strong>Open Upstox Account Now!<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Investors in the funds are also indirect shareholders of the investment business because the funds own the firm. And because the company can reinvest its earnings into its business, investors in the fund can save more money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bogle was the first to offer an index fund to individual investors when he released the Vanguard 500 fund in 1976 to retail investors.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This fund mimics the performance of the S&amp;P 500 index. Bogle&#8217;s innovative organizational design for Vanguard also made it well-suited to the distribution of no-load mutual funds (which do not charge a commission on investments).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/rakshithpai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/y-1tktyvr0a-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"John Bogle\u2019s Index Investment Strategy\" class=\"wp-image-7992\" width=\"1197\" height=\"798\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rakshithpai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/y-1tktyvr0a-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/rakshithpai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/y-1tktyvr0a-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rakshithpai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/y-1tktyvr0a-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rakshithpai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/y-1tktyvr0a-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/rakshithpai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/y-1tktyvr0a-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/rakshithpai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/y-1tktyvr0a.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1197px) 100vw, 1197px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_Index_Fund_Investing\"><\/span><strong>What is Index Fund Investing?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A mutual fund or ETF that aims to replicate the performance of a market index, such as the NIFTY 50 or the SENSEX 30, is known as an index fund. <\/strong>Mutual funds that track an index are often touted for their cheap fees, stable value, low portfolio turnover rates, and, most importantly, their ability to clone broad market index returns. These investments track an index regardless of market conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The majority of financial experts agree that index funds make excellent core holdings for retirement plans. <\/strong>For example, SENSEX 30 in the past 20 years, has given over 12% to 15% CAGR per annum. Something that a handful of investment instruments can do with very little work from our end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/rakshithpai.com\/best-warren-buffett-quotes\/\">Warren Buffett<\/a>, a legendary investor, has advocated adopting index funds as a safe harbor for retirement money. <\/strong>He has argued that ordinary investors would be better off purchasing an index fund that would provide them exposure to the country&#8217;s broad market without having to choose individual equities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Listen_to_John_Bogle\"><\/span><strong>Why Listen to John Bogle?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>John Bogle is a legend. I\u2019m not saying is just because he is rich or famous. In fact, John Bogle could have easily been one of the richest investors on the planet. But, <strong>he chose to make others rich. He transformed money management, making investing cheaper, simpler, and more accessible than ever before, lifting the financial well-being of millions of people in the process.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bogle started the Vanguard which is one of the largest money managers handling over 5 Trillion dollars from around the world. At a mere 1% management fees, you are looking at 50 Billion $ racked up.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mr.Bogle could have been one of the richest. But, by the time of his death, he was worth a little over 100 million dollars. Something very small when compared to other fund managers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And, it\u2019s because of Sir Bogle\u2019s investment strategy. <strong>Over 2\/3rd of the fund was invested in index funds. They are low in maintenance and cost, but when done right (and they did), they\u2019ll deliver more money to the hands of investors.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He asked the retail investors to start investing via index funds.

Investing everything in a single fund, though, might be a bit confusing. <strong>According to Bogle, a conservative portfolio should consist of 65% big, established companies and 35% investment-grade bonds.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you split your investments 65:35, you&#8217;ll get nearly all of the market&#8217;s return with a 15-year perspective, and your returns will be in line with some of the best fund managers in the industry. Obviously, active investing by a good fund manager will easily beat any other investment return. <strong>But passive index fund investing is considered mostly for its low-cost, low-worries, and no-work kind of investing.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For Jack Bogle, indexing is a simple and, in many ways, boring way of investing. Get bored with the procedure but excited about the result. Exact reversal if you speculate or gamble with your money, wherein you&#8217;ll be excited with the process but not with the result.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To cut a long tale short, while the procedure itself will be dull, the result will be exciting. In gambling, however, you get a rush while knowing that you&#8217;ll end up with nothing but losses and more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For many financiers, the concept that less is more is an incredibly difficult one to accept. <strong>But the data, the historical facts, and the logic all point to the fact that there&#8217;s more to make via index investing via its easy process of slow wealth creation.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Long_Term_Portfolio\"><\/span><strong>Long Term Portfolio<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The United States was emerging from an energy crisis, an economic contraction, high inflation, and high unemployment when Jack Bogle launched the first index fund in history.<\/strong> As a result, the fund was a failure, bringing in only $11 million while aiming for $150 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, during the five years (1977\u20131982), the index fund underperformed 75% of all actively managed funds. It took a few more decades for indexing and Vanguard to become the investing giants that they are today, but Jack Bogle was extremely patient in getting his idea off the ground despite these obstacles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bogle is fundamentally predisposed to think and act in the long run. In his opinion, those who put their money in passive investment instruments can expect nothing less than a miracle. <\/strong>Especially if you invest in an index fund, a slow SIP (with added setup) can build enormous wealth for the investor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, with a SIP (10% annual step up) in a NIFTY 50 Index fund of Rs. 15,000 a month, you&#8217;ll build a corpus worth over Rs. 6 crores in 25 years at a 12% CAGR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If setting aside 15k is hard, imagine that with just Rs. 5,000 (10% annual step up), you can build Rs. 2 crore worth of retirement corpus in 25 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-wp-embed is-provider-embed wp-block-embed-embed\"><blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"PdBHqNINrk\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rakshithpai.com\/best-stocks-to-buy-in-india\/\">Best Long Term Stocks in India &#8211; 2022<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Best Long Term Stocks in India &#8211; 2022&#8221; &#8212; \" src=\"https:\/\/rakshithpai.com\/best-stocks-to-buy-in-india\/embed\/#?secret=XODEC0RpHI#?secret=PdBHqNINrk\" data-secret=\"PdBHqNINrk\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Be_Emotionless_Investor\"><\/span><strong>Be Emotionless Investor<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Investing is not the place for sentiment.

Edward Johnson, the newly appointed CEO and Chairman of Fidelity, remarked, &#8220;I can&#8217;t think that the great bulk of investors is going to be pleased with simply ordinary returns.
