Festival Bonus Season Is Here: Spend It, Save It, or SIP It?

Vizzve Admin

The lights are up, the sweets are ready—and so is your festival bonus!

Whether you received it for Diwali, Dussehra, Eid, Onam, or even a year-end performance reward, the big question now is:

Should you spend it all, save it safely, or invest it smartly?

Let’s break down your options and help you make the most of your festive earnings—with Vizzve Finance, your trusted money partner.

💸 Option 1: Spend (But Spend Smart)

We get it—festivals are about joy, gifts, and celebration. If you’re planning to spend a portion of your bonus, here’s how to do it wisely:

✅ Use the 50-30-20 Festival Formula:

50% for celebrations and essentials (shopping, travel, home needs)

30% into a short-term emergency fund

20% into SIPs or investment tools

✅ Shop with Purpose:

Use Vizzve’s Budget Tracker to set a festive limit. Avoid impulse purchases that blow up your credit card bills.

🏦 Option 2: Save for a Rainy Day

Planning for uncertain times? A bonus is a great opportunity to:

Top-up your emergency fund

Start a vacation goal fund

Build your home loan down payment

Use Vizzve’s Smart Saver tool to calculate how much you need for each goal and where to park it—FDs, RD, or high-interest savings accounts.

📈 Option 3: SIP It and Let It Grow

This is where the magic of wealth-building begins.

🔁 Start or Top-Up a SIP:

Even ₹2,000/month in a diversified mutual fund can grow into ₹5+ lakhs in 10 years.

💡 Lump-Sum Bonus Investment?

Use Vizzve’s SIP+ Strategy to split your bonus into:

60% lump-sum MF or ELSS

40% as monthly SIPs for rupee cost averaging

📊 Example:

If you got ₹30,000 as bonus:

Spend ₹10,000 🎁

Save ₹6,000 🏦

Invest ₹14,000 in SIP/ELSS 📈

That’s celebration + safety + compounding growth!
