Hey I am on Medial • 21d

Nikhil Kamath wasn't a poor school dropout who built Zerodha from nothing. He was born into banking family privilege. Father Raghuram Kamath was executive at Canara Bank. Mother Revathi Kamath ran event management company managing corporate events. "School dropout billionaire" sounds inspiring. Reality? Dropped out by choice. Family stability enabled luxury to rebel against traditional path. Call center job wasn't survival was teenage rebellion after moving out to live with girlfriend. Banking family safety net meant he could afford to experiment with unconventional choices. Family backup reduced real risk. Father gave him his savings to trade at age 18-ultimate privilege of family financial support for risky ventures. Brother Nithin's trading experience provided ready business partner with established client relationships. His entrepreneurial spirit was genuine but his platform was banking family privilege. Poor dropouts don't get family savings and safety nets to pursue trading.
