Doing Investments has Interesting Similarities with Worshipping God for Normal Guys. Did you observe?

Greetings from Hitesh! Thanks for your feedback on our last post “Your Prayers / Your Abuses and Your Investments – Weekend Read.” If you have missed reading the same – I suggest you must take out time and read the same. It will surely help you transform your thought process towards better investing. I came across interesting similarities between NORMAL people’s way of doing investments and WORSHIPPING GOD. I am just sharing with you.

Our Social Structure of Living LIFE:-

From the age old we have a system in which we have divided LIFE in 4 parts of 25% each (assuming a person is going to live 100 years)– first 25 years to STUDENT / Second 25 years to MARRIED MAN / Third 25 years preparing for SANYAS / 4th 25 years as a SANYASI. This is widely accepted and it is often quoted by various GURUs as an ideal system. I am sure many of you must also be agreeing with this. Am I right?

If you follow this system – your time to worship GOD will come once you are above 50!! If you ask any youngsters to worship the god – they will say – we will do when we grow old. Let us enjoy the LIFE NOW. This is the usual attitude of a normal guy.

The Best years of your life are 25 to 50. You are full of energy / you have a sound health and sound mind. This best of the time you are spending on the things other than GOD. It means – GOD is not at all important for you.

After 50 you will have less energy / may be some health issues / less concentration / your effectiveness has gone down/ you can’t do your work properly – so, you move towards the GOD.

How Our Investment Structure Is Devised?

Like GURUs in Social Structure – financial and investment consultants will also advise you something like below.

1.  From the money left after your consumption - they will ask you to take life insurance / Term insurance / Health insurance in the first step.
2.  Second step they will ask you to invest in Small saving Scheme offered by POST and Government like PPF. They will also advise you to invest in Bank FDs here. 
3.  Third step they will ask you to invest in Mutual funds / SIPs / Debt funds and Pension plans etc, etc.
4.  In the forth step they will say now if you have money left – you can go for Equities or Real Estates or other so called risky investments.

They have sucked your 80% to 90% of the investible funds in the above three steps. You are left with just 10% to 20% of the funds.....you can’t beat the wealthy guys with this amount.

Moreover, since your stakes are small – you don’t like to spend money for investment consultancy or giving your own time for the same!! The end result is failure or average performance.

So, you conclude that investing in first three steps is more beneficial than investing in Shares!!

What are the FACTS?

Just look at long list of realised Souls – Moses / Jesus / Mohammad/ Buddha / Mahavir / Shankracharya / Guru NANAK – they all got their GOD/TRUTH in their peak of YOUTH. They could leave the religion behind them because – they got the TRUTH in their YOUTH and they got the time to GUIDE the people for a longer time. Not a single guy in above list (I can add more guys – but these are the prominent ones) had followed 4 steps theory given by our social structure!!

Just look at the long list of Richest GUYS – Bill Gates / Warren Buffetts/ Steve Jobs / Mark Zukerberg / BANSALS / RAKESH – they also became RICHEST while they were in their YOUTH. Look at the Field of Sports – most of them retire in their late 30s.

Conspiracy about the FOUR STEPS Theory:-

If you follow the four steps theory – you will never get GOD or MONEY. There is vested interest in propagating the above theory in the field of Spiritualism and in the field of Finance.

Just to share an example – Mukesh Ambani inducted his daughter in the board at the age of 24!! Muthy’s son also directly joined the board. You will find many examples. Ideally they should also start as an executive and go to the TOP, isn’t it?  They do not follow four steps theory. They directly go to the final and most important step!!

Chankaya of West - Nicolo Machiavelli had said in his famous book“The Prince” is the guiding principles for the persons in the Authority.

One of the most appreciated and the most followed principle given in the Prince is – “Preach and talk about Morality/Honesty/ Integrity/Hard work and Principle Centered life to the normal people in your state. Make them follow all of the above. You also appear doing the same, but in reality……do the opposite!!”

My Personal Call:-

It’s your life and your money. You are 100% free to choose what you should be doing and what you should not be doing. One thing is 100% sure – if you follow four steps theory in either area – 99.99% you will not get GOD or Money. If at all you get by stroke of luck, you will not have the utility of both of them!!

Do not waste precious years/resources of your life in following first three steps......directly go for GOD or Go for MONEY.

If you really want to go for MONEY – come to DESTINY MANAGEMENT. I am waiting for you the way SHABRI was waiting for SHRI RAM.

Have a Super Sunday.
