"I don't know if I can say this thing in writing form or not, but let's talk a little about my last poll. The majority of people have chosen startup investment, and to those people, I have this question: Do you know about the risks involved in startup investment? Let's take an example of VC funds; there is a very big VC in Japan whose 10-year return hasn't even beaten India's Nifty50. This means the startup portfolio is performing worse than the Indian listed portfolio. Do you know that the majority of startups fail? Out of 100, at least 91 shut down within 5 years. And if we look at history, it often happens that a VC fund struggles to recover even 20% of its investment amount. Now let's talk about some harsh realities, but this is important. Even today in India, people are investing only by looking at the positive side and are not aware of the negative aspects. And maybe that's why 9 out of 10 people lose all their money in investment/trading or their financial journey. Think about it. Again, I never thought this poll would go like this; there's still a lot of growth remaining.
