@CountryGulshan I get the excitement and joy of getting a long awaited purchase but she still shouldn't have accepted it, if it wasn't what she ordered + without checking. flipkart/amazon have this bad track record of this, whether 1/100 or 1/1000 times, why get stuck if it happens on you?

I was here from 2010.
Life was cool when I was not known, or when I had less than 500 followers.
I started posting more after quitting my job three years back, and even more after my knee ACL surgery.
I did every mistake a new investor does.
You name it, I might have done it.
Bought stocks from Moneycontrol discussion boards 20 years ago without understanding the business or risks.
After some initial success, got false confidence, took a ₹2 lakh personal loan, invested it, and burned almost everything.
Averaged down thinking price has to come back.
Bought penny stocks and low market-cap names thinking they will rise fast.
Followed TV recommendations.
Every stupid mistake a beginner investor makes, I have done it.
In Telugu there is a line:
“Bhogi kaanivaadu Yogi kaaledu.”
One who has not gone through indulgence, mistakes, burns and temptations cannot become wise like a yogi.
So when I say something today, it is not theory.
It is burn marks speaking.
--------
Other mistakes I did as a new investor:
Buying just because the stock had fallen 50%, thinking it had become cheap.
Confusing low price with cheap valuation ₹10 stock looked cheaper than ₹1,000 stock.
Looking only at profits, not cash flow, debt, pledging, dilution or promoter quality.
Selling winners too early and holding losers forever.
Thinking every operator-driven move is “smart money accumulation.”
Believing every turnaround story without checking whether the balance sheet can survive.
Buying because some big investor entered, without understanding their time horizon or position size.
Taking allocation too big in stocks I did not understand properly.
Not respecting liquidity — easy to enter, impossible to exit.
Getting emotionally attached to stocks and defending them like family members.
Mistaking bull market luck for personal skill.
Thinking more information means better decision-making.
Watching price every day but not watching business progress.
Ignoring opportunity cost holding dead stocks while better stocks kept moving.
Learning risk only after losing money.
Evlenirsen pişman olursun. Evlenmezsen de pişman olursun. Çocuk yapsan da yapmasan da pişman olursun. Kierkegaard bunu 200 yıl önce şöyle söylemiştir:
"Neyi seçersen seç pişman olursun. Çünkü sorun tercihlerinde değil yaşanmamış bir hayatı romantize etmendir. İnsan her daim gidilmemiş bir yolu cazibeli ve gizemli bulur. Bu yüzden mesele en doğru seçimi yapman değil. Hangi pişmanlıkla yaşayacağını seçip karar vermendir."
Sen neye karar verdin?
China has introduced strict new regulations for online influencers.
Under the new rules, content creators must possess a relevant university degree or professional certification before they can discuss specialized topics such as medicine, finance, education, law, or health. The policy, issued by the Cyberspace Administration of China, aims to curb misinformation and raise the overall quality of online content.
Influencers wishing to cover these subjects on platforms like Douyin, Weibo, and Bilibili are now required to submit proof of their qualifications. Platforms are responsible for verifying credentials and removing any non-compliant content.
Violators face significant penalties, including fines of up to 100,000 yuan (approximately $14,000), account suspension, or permanent bans.
While supporters view the measure as a necessary step to protect the public from misleading or harmful advice, critics argue that it could restrict free expression and limit diverse voices online.
The regulation reflects China’s broader effort to tighten control over digital content and establish higher standards of credibility in the influencer economy.
You paid $1,000 for a Samsung phone.
Samsung pre-installed dozens of apps you never asked for.
Facebook. Microsoft Office. Netflix. Samsung's own browser. Samsung's own email. Samsung's own calendar. Samsung's own notes. Samsung's own cloud. Samsung's own payment app. Samsung's own voice assistant.
Duplicates of apps you already use. Running in the background. Eating your battery. Using your storage. You cannot delete them. The delete button is greyed out.
You paid for the hardware. They control the software.
Xiaomi is worse. Pre-installed games. Shopping apps. Some serve full-screen ads on your phone.
Carriers add more. T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&T each pre-install apps you will never open. Uninstall button? Greyed out.
Someone built a tool that removes every single one. No root needed.
It's called Universal Android Debloater. Written in Rust. Cross-platform GUI. Plug your phone in. Click. Gone.
→ Remove any pre-installed app. Samsung, Xiaomi, OnePlus, Oppo, Vivo, Huawei, Motorola, Nokia.
→ Remove carrier bloatware. T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&T, and carriers worldwide.
→ No root required.
→ Restore anything you removed. One click.
→ Battery life improves immediately.
→ Storage freed. Gigabytes recovered.
→ Privacy improved. Fewer apps tracking you.
→ Community-maintained database of known bloatware.
→ Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Here's the wildest part:
The phone you paid for is not yours. It is a billboard you carry in your pocket. The manufacturer sold you hardware and then sold your attention to their partners.
This tool gives you YOUR phone back.
GPL-3.0. Written in Rust. Community-maintained.
But DO NOT use Universal Android Debloater.
We should all keep running dozens of apps we never installed on the phone we already paid for.
Wall Street just pulled off the exact move that turned 2008 from a housing problem into a global collapse.
They turned Nvidia graphics cards into bonds, stamped them investment grade, and started selling them into the funds that hold retirement money.
Here is what happened while everyone was busy arguing about whether AI stocks were overvalued:
The company at the center is CoreWeave, which rents out Nvidia chips to AI companies.
To buy those chips, it borrows enormous sums, and the collateral on the loans is the chips themselves. That alone is alarming because a graphics card LOSES most of its value within a few years as the next generation makes it obsolete.
You are lending against an asset built to rot.
In January, Nvidia invested $2 billion straight into CoreWeave, which then used borrowed money to buy more Nvidia chips.
On March 31, CoreWeave closed an $8.5 billion loan backed by its chips, and for the first time the rating agencies stamped that chip-backed debt investment grade, with Moody's assigning it an A3.
Debt secured by depreciating graphics cards was rated nearly as SAFE as a blue-chip corporate bond.
Then on May 18, CoreWeave closed the first chip-backed facility designed to be publicly syndicated and traded on secondary markets.
And that's the part that really matters because it means this debt can now be sliced up, passed around, and bought by anyone, including the bond funds and pension managers who are required to hold "safe" investment-grade paper.
On June 11, it announced another $3.5 billion in bonds on top of all of it.
Now compare this to what happened in the past:
Subprime mortgages in 2007 were not dangerous because some people got loans they couldn't repay...
They became a global bomb the moment that debt got rated AAA and sold into the wider financial system, because the rating is what let it bleed into money market funds, pensions, and bank balance sheets that were supposed to be boring and safe.
The bad loans were the spark but the packaging and rating were the detonator.
And that detonator just got built for AI.
Debt backed by graphics cards is now rated investment grade and trades on secondary markets, which means the AI bubble is no longer trapped inside tech stocks you can choose not to own.
It has been quietly converted into bonds and routed toward the retirement accounts of people who have never typed a single prompt in their lives.
And the whole structure rests on a backlog of customer "commitments" that CoreWeave values at nearly $100 BILLION, backed by a $21 billion Meta deal and a $6 billion Jane Street deal.
Those are promises to pay over many years, made by AI companies that are themselves mostly unprofitable and burning cash. If even a few of those customers slow down or walk away, the collateral sitting under all this rated debt is a warehouse of chips losing value by the month.
The AI bubble used to be a stock-market story you could opt out of. But as of this spring, that isn't the case anymore.
So here's the real question:
When the people packaging this debt swear to you that it's safe, who do you think is standing on the other side of that trade?

Remember when Bollywood still had the confidence to hide a twist?
Khakee did.
Rajkumar Santoshi assembled a cast that looked less like a film and more like an awards-night seating plan.
Amitabh Bachchan. Ajay Devgn. Akshay Kumar. Aishwarya Rai. Tusshar Kapoor.
Too many stars for one police van, frankly.
And yet the film never felt crowded.
Everybody had a purpose.
Everybody had secrets.
Everybody seemed to be carrying information the audience wasn’t supposed to have yet.
That was the fun of Khakee.
You watched it once for the action.
You watched it again to see the clues hiding in plain sight.
The genius of the casting was that it encouraged assumptions.
Bollywood had trained us to trust certain faces,
suspect certain faces,
and root for certain faces.
Santoshi quietly played with all of that.
Very naughty.
Looking back, what stands out is how relentlessly adult the film was.
No desperation to be fashionable.
No urge to soften the edges.
Just flawed people, shifting loyalties, bruised morality and a story willing to take risks with its audience.
And then, of course, came that twist.
The sort of twist that sent an entire theatre into instant discussion,
half the audience admiring the audacity,
the other half wondering how they hadn’t seen it coming.
Either way, nobody forgot it.
Which is more than can be said for most thrillers.

₹14 lakh demand on oxygen concentrators donated FREE during COVID to save lives. GST department has not only become corrupted, but also inhuman, behaving like they are not even part of mankind. Punishing humanity 5 years later for helping people breathe during a national crisis shows how heartless and broken this system has become.

The police threw a protestor so hard into a metal pole that it bent (pictures in the comments). He is now hospitalised.
Surrounded by a dozen or so officers, this is the only way you could detain him?
Police brutality for White working class men only.
Policja w Wielkiej Brytanii przebiła wszytko to, o czym czytaliście u George Orwell'a. Policjantka: "Patrzyłyśmy na ciebie przez parę minut i jeśli jesteś w parku, ale nie siedzisz na ławce, albo nie czekasz na kogoś... chcemy wiedzieć, co tu robisz".
The Muslim majority council of the town of Harrow in the UK has begun hiring Muslim morality police they call “civil enforcement officers” to accost, fine, and harass native British people.
“We’re going to make sure you can’t work any more and earn no money.”
Арнольд Шварценеггер: "Знаешь, почему большинство талантливых людей так и остаются никем? Они включают фальшивую скромность. Они говорят: «Я творец, я просто делаю свою работу. Пускай мир сам меня заметит».
Это чушь. Ты можешь быть гением, создавать лучшие продукты или писать шедевры. Но если люди об этом не знают, у тебя ничего нет. Абсолютный ноль. Твой талант просто умрёт вместе с тобой.
Умение продавать, продвигать себя. Доносить свою ценность до других и убеждать — это не грязное ремесло. Это величайшее искусство, без которого ты никто.
Чем больше людей узнают о том, на что ты способен, тем ближе ты к вершине. Перестань прятаться в тени. Выходи и учись заявлять о себе на весь мир. Твой успех зависит только от этого"
Nanded, Maharashtra Police !
This traffic warden repeatedly tells to turn off the mobile camera, also goes on to say when you guys get in an accident no one comes but just us
Strict action must be taken against everyone who force people to stop recording the Police
British Police Terrorise & ASSULT a 5 year old White Child.
British police officers violently pull a five-year-old boy out of his father's arms & they arrest the father.
The boy is terrified & runs, the Police chase him & violently twist his arms behind his back almost dislocating both shoulders.
They drag him to the cop car, throw him in & slam the door on his hand.
The poor terrified child is hysterical & screaming.
This is absolutely disgusting.
WTF is going on in the UK?
This is a 5 YEAR OLD CHILD 😡
Communist Britain 🇬🇧
