Cash Burn Nahi, Dimaag Burn Hai! Kunal Bahl’s Startup Gyaan Hits Hard Kunal Bahl, the Snapdeal wala shark, basically said Cash burn is not the villain if you’re not a total idiot throwing money at stupid stuff. Startup life mein paisa jalana is fine, but only if you know " what " and " where "to invest. Nahi toh, Khatam Tata Bye bye 🚫 Kunal says burn cash on things that make your product killer or get you more users, think tech, talent, or "quality "marketing. But if you’re spending crores on fancy offices or influencer parties to look cool, toh bhai, yeh startup nahi, circus hai! He’s seen too many founders act like ATMs for VCs, burning cash on “growth” without a plan. Ultimately zero revenue, and a big fat zero in the bank. 💸 Most startups die because founders think cash burn is a flex and key to success in the startup world . Kunal’s like, “Bhai, focus on unit economics, not Linkedin likes” Spend on what scales your biz, not what makes you feel like a boss. Aur yeh VC log? They’ll push you to burn more to hit fake milestones. Don’t fall for it, warna seed round ke baad seed hi bachega! Lmao 🌱 Kunal’s advice is to be a chad founder. Plan your spends like you’re running a OG kirana stores. What do you think? Drop your thoughts on his take. Till then check out my idea on Showcase. https://medial.app/idea/animaze-b8b4de2358181
