Can you get 1 Cr with just spending of 300 per day and without taking any risk?

Invest in PPF 300 per day or 9000 per month and see the magic of the power of compounding. I am assuming an 8% interest rate on PPF. Keep putting your money for 15 years and don't withdraw it after maturity. Just extend it 3 times more for a period of 5 years each. Your total investment horizon will be 15+15=30 years. In just 30 years, you are going to be a millionaire. Is not it amazing.!

To deposit 9 lakh, you need to open a joint account. The single account holder can deposit up to 4.5 lakh only. The maturity period is only 5 years, so you can extend it after maturity.
