From wanting a ₹25 milkshake as a child to earning far more than his younger self could imagine, this is a personal journey through money, ambition, investing, career choices, and the feeling that “I still need more.” In this video, we explore 3 important money lessons: Why increasing your income and capital can matter more than chasing investment returns early in your career How to evaluate opportunities using the SCOPE framework — Scale, Compounding, Opportunity Cost, Personal Advantage, and Exit Why earning more doesn’t automatically make you feel wealthy, especially when social comparison keeps moving the goalpost The bigger question is: How much money do you actually need? Because money isn’t just about wealth. It gives you options—more freedom, more choices, and the ability to build a life around what you actually value. If you’ve ever wondered why you keep chasing more money even after having enough, this video is worth watching. -------------------------------------------------- By the way, these are investment platforms I personally use and genuinely find useful.
