Where to Invest?


For investment decision making I always tried to learn more from Google. I went through a ton of articles in the vast sphere of investment. But I was not satisfied. Sometimes I decided to invest in stock trading, sometimes in my career, sometimes in some other things. I always felt distracted, I felt inconsistent .. etc.. etc.. a feel bad experience for me.

Being frustrated, I questioned myself,

"Well!! these may not be working out for me. I am lacking something. But what's that?"

I tried to dive deeper into the core of myself. And I found below data as output which may help you -

Reason for null and void output for any effort as input:

  1. I was not clear what I want? (Requirement gathering stage omitted)
  2. As there was no requirement, there was no plan and goal too. (Project planning missed)
  3. As there was no plan, the whole effort was scattered and had gone in vain by producing only some "feel bad" output as bugs. (No development plan)

And also I found below insights:

  1. Investing in money - may lead to financial freedom but if integration test of other domain of life failed, it will be a disaster and no continuity plan can save you.
  2. Investing in career/job/.... - may take care "Investing in money" and also produce some more in financial and some other aspects but still, integration test will tell you about the output.
  3. Investing in family/society/... - may take care "Investing in career/job/...." which eventually may take care "Investing in money" too but again look for integration test.
  4. Investing in Yourself - may take care of any other investment and also can produce such a great output which you just cannot imagine. Isn't it?

Thank you, investors.

  1. I follow the hedge funds. SEC allows to type and search. First discover who the largest hedge funds are, then find out their holdings, then find out their returns and this might take some of your own effort by researching their data, then find the correlation between those hedge funds and the companies they invest in and brainstorm why they are interested (it’s not always just about money; it’s about control and influence) then research their track record with the public. For instance, I could care less about George Soros (nothing personal) but I do know he has power, influence and money. I also know he recently invested billions into a high yield dividend stock. I’m sure there are others like him out there I just haven’t “found” it yet.

Social Entrepreneurship Ideas

Today I was traveling in a local train in India. In this time I experienced, I felt, I realized a lot more than when I tried to check internet for startup ideas. Most of these ideas may be categorized as social entrepreneurship. I cannot help me but mentioning some of them here. Platform for Local and Poor Artists: During this travel my mind was captivated by the amazing flute playing by a beggar. So I was thinking why aren’t we creating a platform for these local poor artists who have talents in different fields and publishing their work through Youtube, Blog, Website and any other thing to make money from their work so that we can stop them to beg by giving money from here and also entrepreneurs can earn some bucks. Education for Poor Children: It’s one of the greatest pain when I see small childs are begging in the train, public place. It’s not the solution to give them money or food instantly as it’s not only temporary but also a positive reinforcement for their beggin...

5 Should Be Goals of a Really Ambitious and Passionate Startup

Success rate in startups is too low which is a demotivating factor for the young entrepreneurs. So I was thinking how they can get rid of this fear of statistics backed failure. And they deserve it as they are mostly passionate and ambitious. But only being passionate and ambitious will not help you to achieve success as a startup founder. After diving deep into the core of my mind, I realized that following 5 things should be the goal of a really ambitious and passionate startup. Make platform or infrastructure not product: Don’t think about a product or particular service. That will not create long term revenue. Rather be mindful and think about some infrastructure or platform where people will give and take particular product or service. And then you can create big impact in the society. Successful Examples: Cloud, API, Google, Open Source, WordPress…….Aren't they?? Empower people: Don’t think about business – think about the empowerment of people. People i...
