Who remembers a decade back when 🇮🇳 startups hired Indian expats to run local product / ops? Wonder what happened to that thesis 👀

Honestly, as a fintech founder I've not seen any innovation in fintech post pandemic. All we are doing is UI/UX changes honestly in the name of functional innovation. Sorry state of things!! 😠

saddest part being 🇮🇳 is touted as the most vibrant fintech market which deserves the highest risk capital. but alas it's not. hope in future, we don't look back today as a lost opportunity. but I think I know the answer 🙁

What CAD/CAM did to mechanical engineering jobs in 80s is what AI will do to software engineering, first gradually and then suddenly! #startups

I’m surprised many don’t know that the Nobel Prize for Economics isn’t part of Alfred Nobel’s OG list. Sweden’s central bank funds it. It's like RBI giving the prize to SBI's eco-head 😆 So it's safe to assume that a Chinese isn't going to win the prize anytime soon #FunFacts

The market is all about cycles. Interestingly, we can now push private cycles (w/ capital as a moat) into the public arena. It will be very interesting to see this play out. #investing

If $100 were invested in this strategy, it would have yielded $478.79 approx over the investment timeline ie 34.4% IRR. Is this worth it? #investing

गोली खाकर एक के मुँह से निकला - 'राम'। दूसरे के मुँह से निकला- 'माओ'। लेकिन तीसरे के मुंह से निकला- 'आलू'। पोस्टमार्टम की रिपोर्ट है कि पहले दो के पेट भरे हुए थे। - सर्वेश्वरदयाल सक्सेना

First thing you notice once you land in India is the level of noise on roads. we all are in a hurry and entitled to every square inch of roads. FFS, stop honking at every moment.

Money is like #health – invisible when abundant, all-consuming when scarce. Enter two role models: Bryan Johnson, obsessed with living forever and Ed Thorp, applying an investor’s mindset—control downside, capture upside, avoid complexity, no wild bets. Thorp's playbook?

FYI, total private capex committed by US cos. towards AI research is ~$280 billion (around 7% of India's GDP). I don't want to share India's figures (both pvt & public)
