The tone of the blog might sound that of a narcissist but not in reality. It is actually my story, a story on how i grew up? Where am i now? Will my dreams get fulfilled? I have been a bright boy through out my life. I was almost a child prodigy. When I was 4, I was fondly called 'Spelling Master'. I could spell many English words correctly. I mugged the Southern Railway guide when I was 5. You name the city in India and I would tell the name of the train, the timings and the route the train would take and the name of the intermediate stations too!! When I was 7, i developed fascination for maps. Name any country in the world, I would spot it on the map. I knew the capitals of almost 140 countries then.
I was eight. I began reading the newspaper. I developed interest in Cricket and Politics. I was able to recollect the names of even Ranji Players and the teams they represented. Began my journey as a political observer and an analyst when I was 10. My quizzing career started when I was 9. It reached its pinnacle of Glory when I narrowly missed out making to the All Asia Bournvita Quiz Contest Finals at the age of 13. I have won many quizzes at the state and the national level. However, my quizzing career lasted for just 8 years and I put an abrupt end to it at the age of 17.
Then, I ventured into the world of equities. What began as a pencil trading later became my full time hobby!!! I want to be known as India's own Warren Buffet!!Interest in equities later developed into a fascination for business, commerce and finance. I made it to India's leading B School, IIM B after my graduation. Now I am there at IIM B. I do have a flair for entrepreneurship. I see in each and every thing an opportunity for business.I do want to become a social entrepreneur. I read and read a lot. I should be able to engage people in conversation on any topic under the sun!! Strange!! I too dream of becoming a politician and reforming the nation!! But I do have a dream of a getting a job in Goldman Sachs or McKinsey. But people say that might remain a dream for ever. Suddenly, I experience a love for socialism! Really strange!!! Been an ardent Capitalist and a socialism basher so far!!! Where am I now? Where am I heading?
Will I ever make it to Goldman? Will I create another Berkshire Hathaway? Will I become the messiah of the poor?
Only time can tell!!!
