Why incremental wealth beyond 10 crore rupees stops motivating founders
“Beyond a particular point, what motivates you after you've crossed your first 10 crores is very unlikely to be your second set of 10 crores or your third set.”
Why many hotel startups better than OYO failed due to luck
“No one talks to you about the hundred other hotel companies that started at the time which OYO did, and which folded or failed, and a lot of them may have even been better than OYO for all you know.”
Why angel investing is actually a terrible, illiquid financial asset class
“I think as a financial asset class, it's a terrible asset class. Very illiquid. You have no mark to market. You don't really know whether the company is doing well, not doing well. Very difficult to get an exit. And a lot of it is extremely emotional, no matte…”
Why readers should treat books like buffets, not cover-to-cover tasks
“The right way to read is not to start from page one and plow all your way to page 300 until you're completely bored and sleepy and you've forgotten what page one was about. The right way to read is to pick and choose. Think of it like a buffet. Don't think of …”
A founder's right to win comes from confident, counter-intuitive insights
“For entrepreneurs, we're really looking for people who have counter-intuitive insights. Someone who knows something, which he's very confident about, which no one else does. Because that's what really gives him the right to win.”
Why Dr. Malpani believes Indian entrepreneurs disappoint by not writing stories

Why digital communication beats in-person meetings for initial founder contacts
“Honestly, if I have an option, most of my contact first preferences would be digital rather than face to face. Lots of people are exactly the opposite. They want to talk to a person They want to look the person in the eye. And the way I look at that is that no…”
Why students must build personal websites instead of relying on LinkedIn
“Every student should have what I call a digital portfolio. This is going to be a part of your life. Today, it's your LinkedIn profile. You know, after five years, there may be no LinkedIn. There may be some new social network. Who knows? But your website will …”
Why aspiring investors should make their biggest mistakes early on
“I think if you want to lose, or you want to make mistakes or errors, you should do them early on, because there's less money, you're less arrogant, you're much more careful, you're much more
Cautious about what you're doing.”
Why founding a startup will most likely not make you rich
“I think the great thing about doing a startup is, Not that you'll become rich, mostly you won't, but you will learn a lot about yourself, because you'll be forced to, because you'll be forced out of your comfort zone all the time, you'll be forced to do things…”
Why founders must stop blaming customers when their products fail
“Accept the fact that you could be wrong. You will be wrong all the time, and that's fine. It's okay. But if you get rigid and forced in your way and know my way or the highway or everyone else in the world is an idiot, Ah, my customers are stupid. They don't u…”
How school reading instruction kills children's interest in books
“The problem is the way reading is taught in our schools. It actually kills all the interest. You are forced to read. You are forced to read stuff you don't want to read. You are forced to summarize it, which makes no sense to you, but as a kid you are pretty m…”
