No one plans to get sick or hurt, but most people need medical care at some point. Health insurance covers these costs and offers many other important benefits.
One common thing that people have told me is that they made the decision to go without health insurance. When you are healthy and rarely see a doctor, it may seem like a good idea to cut out health insurance completely and to just go without it. You can pay for things as you go instead of worrying about the insurance premiums. However this is faulty reasoning. It is essential for everyone to always have some form of health insurance.
The reason is that medical emergencies are expensive. If you have a medical emergency without insurance, it is easy to find yourself with a crippling amount of medical debt, and seemingly no way out of the mess. One accident could cost you thousands of rupees in medical bills, and it can quickly climb higher if you need surgery or anytime in rehabilitation. Generally, that is a time when you will not be working either and that means that you will lose money that way as well. Emergency surgeries such as an appendectomy can be very expensive as well. Even with insurance you may find it difficult to pay for health care costs in these instances. It is very hard to pay for medical costs without health insurance, especially if you are checked into a hospital even just overnight.

Fixed deposits are a high-interest yielding Term deposit and offered by banks in India. The most popular form of Term deposits are Fixed Deposits, while other forms of term Deposits are Recurring Deposit and Fixed Deposits.
To compensate for the low liquidity, FDs offer higher rates of interest than saving accounts. The longest permissible term for FDs is 10 years. Generally, the longer the term of deposit, higher is the rate of interest but a bank may offer lower rate of interest for a longer period if it expects interest rates, at which the Central Bank of a nation lends to banks ("repo rates"), will dip in the future.
Usually in India the interest on FDs is paid monthly / quarterly / half yearly or annually as per the requirement of the Customer. The interest is credited to the customers' Savings bank account or sent to them by cheque. This is a Simple FD.The customer may choose to have the interest reinvested in the FD account. In this case, the deposit is called the Cumulative FD or compound interest FD. For such deposits, the interest is paid with the invested amount on maturity of the deposit at the end of the term.
Although banks can refuse to repay FDs before the expiry of the deposit, they generally don't. This is known as a premature withdrawal. In such cases, interest is paid at the rate applicable at the time of withdrawal.
