Who could be a Better Investor – Aishwarya Rai or Shilpa Shetty? An eye-opening secret.

Greetings from Hitesh! Our last post on the biggest SCAM in the area of RELIGIONS and INVESTMENT AREA... https://bestofhiteshparikh.blogspot.com/2019/03/the-biggest-scam-in-area-of-religions.html?spref=tw …

has been super hit. I got the most responses to the same. Most were praising our post, but one reader has taken the post offensively and asked me the following question –

“If Mutual Funds and SIPs are BAD, Why the HELL most educated guys are investing in them?” Do you think they all are wrong?

I assume this gentleman must be heavily invested in funds and it hurts personal ego when one finds that he is being cheated by the system. Many guys would also have questions about the right or wrong of investing in mutual funds and sips. So, I am dealing with the same in my own style.

Today I am not dealing with dry statistics or data. I am dealing with something more subtle, our mindsets.

How NORMAL people’s mindset has been changed over a period of time by wasted interest?

1.  You are wasting time and life by doing household work. Keep maid and enjoy the free time. (So, people started keeping housemaid).

2.  Washing clothes, Cleaning house, Cleaning Utensils can be better done Washing Machine/Vacuum cleaner/Dishwasher – so they have gone for that.

3.  Marriage is the biggest problem, so they are going for LIVE in Relationships.

4.  Delivering a BABY is a painful process – so they are going for SURROGACY.

5.  Breast Feeding spoils the look of BREAST, so they are going for BABY FOOD.

6.  Raising a little baby is a real pain, so they are going for NANNY or they are keeping their kids with their grandparents.

7.  It’s a pain to deal with kid’s studies – so they are going for TUITION.

8.  It’s a waste of time and a place to cook. Go for SWIGGY or ZOMATO. Just click and food will be delivered.

You can add many more things into the above list. Our food habits, our sleep habits and almost whatever we do during the 24 hours a day has been shaped by WASTED INTEREST in various areas – Religions, Social, Investments, Education.

The biggest Lolly Pop they are sharing is that you will save time if you do the above. More time means more pleasure or more focus on business or job. More pleasure/More money means more success and who does not want to be successful?

So, all are brainwashed to do the above things over a period.  

What happens when you do above?

Pain and Pleasures are the two sides of the same coin. When you shun the pain and choose only pleasure, your pleasure becomes the most painful, because another side of PAIN will come automatically someday. The USA has the highest number of suicides out of only pleasure-seeking attitude. They have nothing to do. No purpose in life. So, suicide.   

Now, your child is more attached to his/her NANNY/GRANDPARENTS or TEACHERS. When in school or college they are most attached to their friends. It means you have no connection/bonding with your kids. You are being remembered when they need money. This has trickled down to all the relationships.

Only pleasure-seeking guys are often frustrated/irritated and empty within. They have everything but they lack  LIFE. They have just time in life but no life in the time.

How much time will be saved if you follow the above Suggestions?

All the advertisements are saying the same thing in different words. Use their product / invest with them and save time. Let us see you have done all the above things. How much time you will save? Maximum 4 hours per day. By spending lakhs of rupees/giving your money to fund managers, you are saving just 4 hours per day!! Saving 20% more time and becoming their Puppet for a life time.

I have a better idea. If you don’t have to go to your business or job – how much time you will save? Minimum 8 hours and maximum of 18 hours a day. Am I right? It means you will save 40% to 80% time per day and become your own boss. How about it? Which one is better? Of course, the second option.

Mutual funds advertise shows SIP guys are taking vacations and enjoying. They have not shown how many days and what age?

Second approach can send you on vacation till you live – here and now. You are on vacation from day one. No need for future waiting.

You can wake up at your own time, do whatever you want to do and enjoy life. No tension of catching the train, no tension of meeting the target and no pressures of colleagues to perform.

Do you want this? Then let us learn a better approach.

Learning from AISWARYA RAI BACCHAN: -

Ash and Shilpa Shetty became mother almost simultaneously. Shilpa Shetty was on the Reality TV Show one month after becoming a mother. She was fit and fine. Media was praising her like anything.

Ash took a long vacation of 3-4 years post motherhood. She took active participation in raising AARADHYA. Today also she takes her wherever she goes.

Both are equally RICH. Ash was any day earning better money from her acting then Shilpa. A lot of producers were eager to sign her for a movie post pregnancy (She would have made more money in movie that Shilpa made in TV Show). Still, Ash left the carrier and focused on AARADHYA. Ash could also have got better NANNY for her daughter. But she didn’t.

She took the pain. Now, see the results.

Who will have more satisfying motherhood? ASH.

Whose kid will be more attached to the mother in the long run? ASH.

Where to start from?

I am selecting the PAIN side of the coin to start from. I am taking PAIN to do whatever it takes to learn the investments once and for all. It may take 3 years or may take 5 years. But, for a life of 70-90 years, it makes a lot of sense to invest that much time. I am not saying you leave the job or business and learn. All I am saying, keep on doing what you are doing and master the art of investments side by side. The day you master, I will not have to ask you to leave your job, you will leave it yourself.

Amitabh started his life with the following dialogue of KADER KHAN in movie Muqaddar Ka Sikander.

“Sukh ko thokar maar or dukh ko apna.

Sukh toh bewafa hai …..chand dino ke liye aata hai aur chala jaata hai.

Dukh ko apana Ley, Takdeer Tere Kadmo Me Hogi Aur Tu Muqaddar Ka Badshah Hoga.”

What about educated people as the above reader is asking? Are they Wrong?

According to me, there are three aspects. Education. Intelligence and Wisdom. Education means information and knowledge. Intelligence means how you apply what you know. Wisdom means how you change your quality of life with your intelligence.

Wisdom has ethics and morals built into it. Intelligence is naked. It thinks about you and your profit only. Wisdom thinks about HOLISTIC GROWTH.

Let me share the three stages with ASH and SHILPA.

Education: - Ash and Shilpa both had the knowledge of availability of NANNY to take care of their kids.

Intelligence: - Shilpa used her intelligence. Kept NANNY, saved her time and pain for raising a kid. Invested that time in TV Show and made some money. Instant profit! Was she in need of that few lakhs she made in TV show?  

Wisdom: - Ash used wisdom in being a mother first and actress later. She chose the pain initially. She did not go for few CRORES the movie guys were offering her. She went for her daughter. End results - She is still getting movies today and she will have a lifetime of bonding with her daughter. Shilpa is not getting any MOVIE since long.   

You can choose your own option from the above.

However, if you want to go for WISDOM, take the pain of learning investments in totality now. Indian market has a long way to go from here.  

If you need help in learning investments, you can approach us.

Have a Happy Weekend.
