28, confused if it makes sense to invest in mutual funds or if I should put it in FDs
I am 28F, working, no solid plans for future, fear of getting laid off due to AI plus no solid skill set and I know how it is a me issue but I don’t feel is building a skill set at this point is going to help me given the AI landscape. Have been investing but not much corpus in mutual funds, I am a total spendthrift too. I want to get to saving but I don’t know if it makes sense to put more in mutual funds or put it in FDs. Reason being I am convinced our service bases economy is going to collapse. We are heavily a KPO and a service provider country. With AI I am quite sure back office culture would take a significant hit with mass layoffs. There is no innovation and no great ideas or business enough to sustain the country. Our own companies are companies like TCS and reliance that hardly pay.
Can someone please give suggestions. Thanks
