No one cares, Satya. Insufferable LinkedIn slop. Microsoft Teams takes 10 minutes to load for some reason and crashes my desktop. Outlook focused mode makes me miss all sorts of important emails. Your office products are constantly bothering me to generate slop no one wants to see.
Your software is an actual dumpster. Stop circlejerking with AI grifters and fix your broken shit, man.
@DealsDhamaka I never understood the pricing
I prefer Namaste and other such outlets which are quality and price conscious
had good time in banglore
had eaten few times at Rameshwaram it's good but not at that price
Maybe it's only for rich status creation
@BaluGorade I transferred most of my stocks into MFs and cash
very few strong bets in stocks at the moment, no planning to add more into direct stocks
Mostly will buy more into MFs and diversify accordingly , some gold and silver too

Since people on social media are saying it is not difficult to create wealth of ₹50 crore, ₹100 crore, or even ₹1,000 crore, I thought of sharing a post I wrote a few months ago.
Aspire high. Understand the reality too.
Here is the post:
In general, even among high income earners, let me tell you when someone reach a wealth of say ₹3 crores.
Age in late forties to early fifties. Designated as Vertical Head or Senior Director or similar titles. CTC anywhere between ₹60 lakhs to ₹1 crore per annum.
Own a 3 BHK flat. Would have repaid home loan. Say 2 children in high school or college. A decent car mostly under company (employer) lease.
Mutual funds, shares, money in bank and Provident Fund - roughly around ₹3 crores. In exceptional cases, close to ₹5 crores.
This is general standard among high income earners in our country.
So don't fall for finfluencers trap of creating wealth of ₹50 or ₹100 crores is easy.
Except for extremely lucky or corrupt, making every single crore is difficult.
Never criticize people overtly— that will make them insecure, and resistant to change. Plant ideas, insinuate suggestions. Charmed by your diplomatic skills, people will not notice your growing power.
No life is without suffering, pain, and difficulty.
Some people simply do not brood over it, because life needs to go on.
Warren Buffett’s childhood had a lot of pain too.
The pain came from his mother, Leila.
In public she was sunny, charming, the perfect wife and mother.
At home, after his father left for work, she would explode. No warning. She would scream at Warren and especially his older sister Doris for an hour or two, calling them ungrateful, selfish, worthless.
She would pick at every flaw until both kids were sobbing. She did not stop until they broke.
Warren was too scared to protect his sister. He was afraid he would become the next target. He once ran away from home to escape it.
Leila’s own mother had been institutionalized. A sister died by suicide. Another sister was locked away in an asylum.
Doris later thought their mother may have been bipolar.
Warren never fully agreed. He pointed to her brutal childhood and the terrible headaches she had from working a printing press as a girl.
When Leila died, Warren cried. Not because he missed her.
Because of the waste. The good parts were real.
The bad parts made a real relationship impossible.
That is the part of his childhood he never fully got over.
This is @aakashibhatt & @shantanubhatt95,
8 years - 2,923 days of our father, Mr. Sanjiv Bhatt's unjust incarceration.
Today, 5th September, marks 8 years since this regime came into our home and took our father from us, tearing our family apart under the guise of trumped up charges manufactured to silence his voice of truth. Eight years is an extraordinary amount of time to measure the life of a family, but there are moments when time becomes a strange and almost meaningless measure: the calendar insists that eight years have passed; however, our hearts and souls remain rooted in that September morning when our world was turned upside down and torn apart.
When I look back at these past years, I often think about what our father chose to stand for, and the principles that have given meaning to everything that followed. From him, we learned that there are moments when an individual has to decide whether the safety of silence is worth the price of surrendering one’s conscience. From him we realised what it truly meant to stand in the path of power, when power had decided that it would rather not be questioned. Our father knew that the battle before him was profoundly unequal, uphill and lonesome; that institutions capable of protecting a society, when captured by power and stripped of their independence, become deadly instruments capable of destroying it. He was aware of the consequences of refusing to bend to the whims of this totalitarian regime and yet, he did, and still continues to fight against it with all his might!
That is who Sanjiv Bhatt is …
Not simply a name that appears in newspapers, nor the IPS officer who has become a symbol of something much larger, but our father, a man who possess the extraordinary strength and resilience to keep fighting a battle he knew would cost him everything, because he believed that some principles are more important than the preservation of one's own comfort, career or freedom.
His sacrifices were never made for himself. He fought for people who had suffered hate and violence for the political ambition of one man. He raised his voice when remaining silent would have been infinitely easier. He placed his career, his reputation, his freedom and, ultimately, years of his life on the line because he believed that those who wield enormous power must also be held to an enormous standard of accountability.
And for that, years of his life, his freedom have been cruelly ripped away from him.
But there is something the passage of these eight years has made increasingly clear to me: the greatest victory of repression is not breaking the person it targets, but convincing everyone watching that there is nothing they can do!
Because democracy does not disappear in a single dramatic moment. Its foundations are eroded far more quietly when institutions that were created to restrain power begin serving it; when the judiciary, which should be the last refuge of the powerless, fails to protect them; when due process becomes something that can be manipulated; when truth becomes inconvenient and therefore dangerous; and, perhaps most dangerous of all, when ordinary citizens decide that it is safer to look away, instead of raising their voices in the face of atrocities! That is how the pillars of a democracy begin to crumble. Not because people do not know what is happening, but because remaining wilfully oblivious is far “safer”.
For eight long years, we have watched this unfold around our father. We have watched the extraordinary machinery of power descend upon one man, and we have watched institutions that were supposed to stand between the citizen and the State fail, again and again, to live up to the promise for which they exist.
And still, our father continues to fight …
That, more than anything else, is the measure of his courage, his legacy!
Because courage is not measured by how loudly someone speaks when the world is listening, it is measured by what they are prepared to endure when the world has stopped listening!
Our father has and continues to endure …
He has endured the loss of his freedom, the destruction of his career, the years stolen from his family and the extraordinary weight of a system determined to break him.
Yet somehow, after eight years, the thing this regime has been unable to imprison is the very thing that made him dangerous to them to begin with … his refusal to surrender his conscience!
And perhaps that is why his fight matters now more than ever. For years, too many people learnt to lower their voices before they had even spoken. Questions were replaced by silent acceptance; outrage by apathy; courage by cowardice. An entire generation watched examples being made of exemplary individuals who dared to stand up against this regime and slowly began to believe that the safest way to survive was perhaps to remain silent …But silence comes with a terrible price!
A country cannot remain free when its people are afraid to question power. Institutions cannot remain independent when citizens stop demanding accountability. And justice cannot prevail when the judiciary ceases to be a shield for the people and becomes a weapon against those who dare to dissent. Democracy can survive only when ordinary people are willing to defend its most fundamental promise, that no power is above accountability, and no citizen should have to surrender their freedom, dignity or voice to remain safe.
And yet, perhaps that willingness to speak truth to power is beginning to return. Across the country, once again, people are raising their voices to question. They are beginning to look beyond the empty noise, beyond the propaganda, beyond the carefully constructed narratives that ask them to blindly accept rather than use their agency to examine. A generation that was taught to keep its head down is slowly beginning to lift it with courage and defiance!
Perhaps that is how the endless night finally begins to give way to a new dawn, not through one spectacular event, but through millions of ordinary people deciding, each in their own way, that they will no longer surrender their capacity to question!
And if there is one thing I have learnt from watching our father through all these years, it is that courage is contagious!
One person standing up against an entire regime can look insignificant. One voice can appear almost absurdly small against the mammoth machinery of power. But history has a way of remembering those who refused to bend, and of showing how one person’s courage can awaken the courage of millions!
Our father knew exactly what he was risking, and still chose courage over self-preservation, truth over silence, and conscience over fear. He did not stand up against this regime because he believed he was invincible; he stood because he believed some things were worth fighting for, whatever the cost!
Today, doesn’t just mark 2,923 days of separation, it marks 8 years of our relentless fight for justice …
I hope that everyone who reads this today will once again remember Sanjiv Bhatt ...
Remember the courage it took to confront power when doing so came at an unimaginable personal and professional cost …
Remember what happens when institutions created to protect citizens are weaponised against them …
Remember that the independence of the judiciary, the integrity of institutions and the rule of law are not abstract constitutional phrases; they are the barriers that stand between an ordinary citizen and the unchecked power of the State.
And remember that those barriers remain standing only for as long as we have the courage to defend them!
Eight years have passed since they tried to silence our father’s voice of truth.
Eight years since they stole his freedom, but failed to shake his courage.
Eight years since they tried to bury his resolve, but could not break his indomitable spirit
Eight years in which we have been reminded, again and again, that justice delayed is not merely time lost, it is a test of whether a society still possesses the courage to demand justice at all!
Our father dedicated his life fighting to protect the very secular, democratic fabric of our society, our nation. The least we can do is to refuse to let his voice stand alone!
We must stand together and raise our voices… not only for our father Mr Sanjiv Bhatt, but also for all those who have sacrificed everything to protect the rights, freedoms and values that belong to every citizen of our country.
Eight years on, our father is still standing strong, with his head held high, his conscience intact, and his resolve unbroken!
He refuses to bend, to be silenced, or surrender …And neither will we!
Our fight for justice continues!
We may be bloodied, battered and bruised ... but we remain unbroken, unbent, unbowed!

@BaluGorade that's absolutely correct, when I researched last year for my parents insurance
I got lot of offers from those players with very low premium but my analysis shown lot of bad feedback
So I went with @HDFCERGOGIC
they're not excellent but better
This is hilarious 🤣
Turncoat Raghav Chaddha’s name has been deleted during the SIR process carried out by his new father’s own govt’s ECI.
He is currently not a voter anywhere in the country.
This also automatically disqualifies him from the MP seat which AAP gave him but he sold to BJP.
He is desperate to get his name included.
Looks like someone from inside BJP has done Khela with him 🤣
If we see 0% growth in Indian markets for the next 10 years, the defense is already ready.
Invest wisely. It is your wealth. You would live with the repercussions.
