For me, this is how I personally see mutual funds. I see them as a good way to build and increase capital over time because investment is good, but when the capital is small, the returns will naturally also be small.
My strategy is to keep putting money into mutual funds consistently because of the compounding effect. When you leave the profits to grow instead of withdrawing too early, the returns can gradually build on themselves over time.
That said, I don’t necessarily see mutual funds as a place I want to stay forever long term. I see them more as a capital-building platform, a place to grow investment capital to a substantial level. For example, if someone is able to build it to ₦200 million, ₦300 million, or even ₦400 million, it gives them more flexibility and stronger negotiating power when moving funds into other investment opportunities or negotiating better returns elsewhere.
Regarding the ₦50,000 monthly return being mentioned, I personally see that as relatively small, but everyone speaks from their own financial level and expectations. For some people, that may be meaningful or even serve as a retirement support plan. So I understand the perspective, but my approach is simply different.
