    Thanks, although I’ve read so much and watched so many yt videos on the topic, hearing from actual ppl with ‘skin in the game’ like you said is always interesting.    BTW, how much is the love/passion to money ratio among the co founders where you’re working?  
     

    I’ve always read that if money is the primary motive one tends to give up sooner than later especially when the going gets tough! Also perhaps why I’ve never taken the leap, haven’t found any such subject which I’m so passionate about (sufficient enough to give up a day job and dedicate a majority of my waking hours towards) !

    One founder wants to sell the company for $500M while the other wants it to go to IPO and take on Amazon/Google.

     

    I won't say a person motivated via potential monetary impact will give up sooner.

    Financial freedom is a dream as well, never thinking about your bank balance again in your life? That's amazing.

     

    If you have an idea which can create value for you (even if it's monetary) and you believe in it, there is nothing wrong in pursuing it.

    One just needs to be sure about the pain point they are solving and that the use-case is solid.

    Anyone here a startup founder/entrepreneur ? 

     

    Was watching shark tank (India) and every season gives me so much of energy and motivation to start something of my own, but once the season ends I just forget about it and shift the focus back to my corporate job lol 😂 
     

    If there are any entrepreneurs here, curious as to know what’s the daily grind like 🧐 ? And what exactly motivated to take the leap into the startup world ?

    Not a founder/entrepreneur.

     

    But have been working in a small startup for the last 2 years with sizable equity and skin in the game (i.e. giving up higher packages in the process).

     

    Unless if you belong to that 0.001%, you are looking at a string of failures with a few successes sprinkled through.

     

    80% of your company will be built in the first 6-18 months (depending on the domain) and then you will spend the rest of your time optimizing and selling it.

     

    It's really about learning from your failures (cliched) and making sure that the one time you hit the nail, it amounts to 1000x of all of your past failures combined.

    That is if the market supports you and if you have a good enough product.

    Luck plays a major role either way.

     

    Generally people blame their luck for any failure in their life but when they hit gold, they only attribute it to their own hard work.

    You can be fooled by the randomness.

     

    That's what it is all about, randomness and uncertainty about the future, each and every day. But each time you fail, you reinforce the structure and make your company anti-fragile.

    That calls for hard work and believe but also not being delusional, if something is not working, kill it.

     

    As for your 2nd question, it can be fueled by various factors like money, hate for corporate life or just wanting to build something of your own.

    Wow! That's such a backward way to handle something. I always wondered what is the process to sell in GTT. 

     

    Question, if someone has a stop loss at the time of buying and not GTT and stock hits the target, does it still ask for CDSL pass to auto sell it? 

    Yes if it's not intraday.

    Thankfully never dealt with axis. Cards or banking! 

    Axis might have become stupid now but if you never got an Axis card in last 2 years, you missed out. Plain and simple.

    Axis has provided me with enough points, that I can comfortably travel in International Biz for atleast 4-5 times (have already travelled thrice).

     

    Ask @Shantz, he got much more out of it.

     

    It's simple, last 2 years was the golden period for Indian CC game and now things are going back to normal as Axis has to stop itself from bleeding.

    Oh, joy. Do they add interest like they do when we pay our 'advance' taxes later? 

    They basically have a fixed amount per day, the longer RBI takes, the more bank has to pay.
    RBI only works if it has been at least 30 days since the complaint was made with the bank.

    That sucks specially when you give in a 100% into something but what I have realized in life is that if you keep at it something better is always waiting down the road sometimes it might take a little more time but there always is something better or sometimes things where you had lost hope suddenly out of no where come back. I know it is typical self-motivation book quote but it has always been true. 

     

    On to the next one mate. Cheers!

    It was a great opportunity in terms of fully remote and money and the team.
    Nevertheless, onwards and upwards.

    It took Axis 5 weeks to figure out and let me know they cancelled my card based on someone else’s delinquency. That someone else is an entirely unrelated human. They also cancelled the card without any communication. I found my card was cancelled after I got in touch with customer service to let them know that my card was showing CVV error on trying to use it. 
    At the same time, I kept getting statements (which showed nil dues, in fact pending cash back) and calls for “unpaid dues” :lol:
    I don’t foresee I’ll use any of their services anytime soon. This level of systemic incompetence is not for me, no matter the rewards. 

    Get compensation.

    Does magnus have guest access on domestic lounges? I think that's new post April 20?

    I won't go by what Axis has written in the PDF.

    Guest access were only provided via Priority Pass but at the same time, Priority Pass was made chargeable on Domestic Lounges (even International Indian Lounges).

     

    For domestic lounges, card had to be used directly but now that calls for a 50k spend in last 3 months.

     

    So even if the guest access part on Domestic lounges is true, either you will need to spend those 50k to make it complementary for yourself and then try your luck at the counter or you will be charged on your Priority Pass for yourself at the very least.

     

    And knowing Axis, their team won't know anything about what's actually the case.

    Amex is nice, the only problem with the Plat. Travel is the new update to the vouchers policy by Taj. Earlier the vouchers were applicable on member rates so the benefits were pretty good and I used the Taj vouchers a lot but now the vouchers are not valid on member rates so you have to take the normal rates which are quite higher. 

     

    But for Bonvoy points it is pretty good I mostly transfer the points during promotions of extra 50% on transfer. 

    50% transfer bonus hasn't come for last 3 years. It's been 30%.

    Didn't know about the Taj policy change, can you share the source?

    Closed my Magnus on renewal month. Infinia is the king again. Sorry was and is the king :fear1:

    I think Atlas was still an ok card but this is just the nail in the coffin. 

    1. Which other card is getting you 5-6% for upto 15L spends?

    2. Magnus for Burgundy is still one of the most rewarding cards for medium spenders, Infinia is basically a Smartbuy card now.

    No man. Honestly i have doubts about the future of crypto in India. First, 30% tax and now authorities have banned major crypto exchanges, most of my funds still locked in those exchanges. I think im done with crypto.

    Was not talking from a retail perspective. Was talking from a perspective of non-retail use-cases but got the gist.

    Correct.

    Going by that 33.5 ain't wrong. 

    Yeah, so 33.5 does not look outwardly.
    Ps4 was 1.85 and Ps4 Pro was 4.2 i.e. 2.27x

     

    At 33.5TF, it would be 3x from Ps5. Doable.

    Anyway, TF is just a theoretical metric.
    My takeaway is that it is for sure launching by the end of 2024 and hence I need to upgrade my TV now to get that sweet VRR + HDR uncapped.

    Must be $649!!

     

    Never before seen pricing in the console segment.

     

    I think the traditional generations of consoles will end.

    & they should allow PS5pro to have Crossgen games with PS6 without having a PS5 port.

    $649 will be too expensive.

    People are hardly able to digest the $550 tag.

    But you never know, people like us will still get it especially with GTA6 coming.

    In India, 70k will likely be the launch price.
