Supporting Your Child’s Future with Smart Financial Choices

Requisites: Drinking straw, two drinking glasses, drinking water

Steps:

1. Take a glass and fill it half with drinking water.

2. Now, place the straw in the glass and suck a small amount of water into the straw.

3. Hold your finger across the top of the straw so that you can hold the water in it.

4. Now take it out of the water.

5. Place the straw over the empty glass and take away your finger from its the top of.

6. You will notice that the water will simply come out of the straw.

This happens because when you suck the water from the glass you don’t pull the liquid up but you have taken away some air that was inside the straw by holding it. This makes the pressure inside it lower than the pressure outside the straw. And thus the greater air pressure under the straw holds the water in the it.

Investing in a life insurance plan, such as a 1 crore term insurance, can provide extensive coverage for your child's education and personal milestones. You can also use a term insurance plan calculator to easily find the right plan, coverage amount and premiums based on your budget and your child’s goals.

Adding term insurance to your financial strategy is a smart and affordable way to provide extensive financial security to your loved ones in today’s ever-evolving world.
