The worst thing about a tier 2 city -- isn't lack of infrastructure or lack of top class education & medical facilities -- it's lack of concern for other people's inconvenience, lack of civic sense. An example is LOUD (literally) SHOWOFF of FAKE devotion for religious deities 😒
The goal of life should be to reach a place in life where you are secure in 90% of the rooms you are in, where you don’t care what you are wearing, or what you are speaking, but there should be 10% of rooms where you should feel insecure in. Where you are double checking how you are perceived. Where you prepare your conduct.
That keeps the hunger alive, without burning you out. That propels you forward. Both rooms are important. In that ratio. To keep the balance.

This is YoY returns by market cap category.
This is the reason why we should invest in mid & small caps for wealth creation... and in large cap, only for capital preservation with better tax efficient returns than FD
When I look at the syllabus of my young ones at home, I conclude there is a big gap between the classroom and the ‘new’ real world.
Businesses change every few years. Technology every few months. AI every few weeks.
The syllabus often changes every few decades. We need to move.

In certain specified situations, ITR filing is mandatory even if your income is below taxable limit or have no income at all. Watch this to check if any of these apply to you or your non-earning family members.

Duniya ek kitaab hai, safar zaruri hai.... and besides the experiences, the best part is beautiful relations & friendships we build across the world!

True. I sense that our next gen (those in teens and 20s right now) will be better. Amongst my daughter's circle, they do not show any indication of gender inequality 🤞
I was talking to one of the other ladies who got the Most Powerful Women award from @FortuneIndia and she pointed something out
She said a few months ago at a business leaders awards, almost all the male winners had their wives accompany them and obviously applaud their achievement
She said: Did you notice that at this award function I cannot think of a single woman who came with her husband (maybe there were a few that we missed... at least hoping that was the case)
But yes women were, by and large, either alone or with their mothers, sons, daughters...even brothers and sisters (she is married but she was there with her sister; I am single and was there with my brother) but no visible spouses applauding the women - even for women in their 40s
Once you see that you cannot unsee it
Real life evidence of how husbands are not really happy when their wives succeed and are not part of the cheerleader squad - data studies in the US (and India will not be better for sure) show that on the average, men don't feel good at the core when their wife succeeds (unlike women who are genuinely happy when their husbands do well)... This was stark evidence
More is the pity

IPL TV viewership reportedly down 26%. @BCCI should take it seriously as IPL has become a batting exhibition instead of a cricket contest.
A few fixes:
- Balanced pitches where bowlers matter
- Rethink the Impact Player rule
- Stronger fan engagement by franchises
- Better stadium experience: toilets, seating, food, access
Cricket is most exciting when there is uncertainty and balance… not just 225 vs 225 every night.

Nifty Midcap index made new high today while #Nifty 50 is still about 8% down from it's high. Good portfolios are making new highs everyday.
Don't get stuck in headline news. This is the best market to be in. Good companies' stocks⬆️ bad companies' stocks⬇️

Two biggest mistakes because of which 99% of Indians don't create wealth:
1 - Having more than one real estate (even worse, more than one "flat" and not land)
2 - Not investing enough in equity shares

@sandeepjethwani Mathematically accurate. Practically inaccurate. Lot of those expenses which are included in 2L pm today will start disappearing after 70 like travel, eating out.. at 75 or 78+, even socialisation, dinner parties will go off. No EMI, no rent, just the basic needs will be there
Most would guess Bollywood’s richest are Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan, Karan Johar or Ranveer Singh.
But the real winners? Shah Rukh Khan & Preity Zinta thanks to their investment in KKR & PBKS.
Lesson: Stardom earns. Smart investing multiplies.
