NEW MONEYWISE EPISODE IS OUT. Topic: is owning a massive home worth it? I'm thinking of getting a new house and was curious about the perfect size. So, naturally, I found a gentleman worth $100m and who has a 27,000 square foot house. He told me everything: - maintenance costs - time spent on it - all the other costs (how much it cost, etc) - if it makes him happy And of course, like all Moneywise episodes, we talk about how he made his money, invests it, and spends it. DIG IT. https://lnkd.in/g_XHv98V

Listening to the latest TGN episode made me realise I've had it relatively easy in the business world. In other words, ↳ not otai enough, ↳ haven’t suffered enough, ↳ haven’t hustle enough as compared to our guest here. Umar Munshi, who has spent much of his career abroad, encountered numerous hardships, including unexpected six-figure debts. He kena played by suppliers, or as he said - an ‘internal sabotage’. His insights into the ups and downs of starting businesses are both amazing and inspiring, showing sides of entrepreneurship that many might not consider. These experiences propelled him into ethical investments about a decade ago, a field he pioneered from his very own challenges. We discussed on riba, startups, risk management, portfolio building and halal-driven investments. Through the episodes I can assure you’ll gain insights worth thousands in educational value that you won't find anywhere else.

Your parents think you're too young. Your friends think you're crazy. And the fact that '90% of businesses fail in the first 5 years' keeps you up at night. Someone asked me on a podcast - "So what's the perfect age to start up?  After college? During? After getting that 'safe' job?" Let me tell you something: There's no such thing as perfect timing. It's all about perfect preparation. Want to know the REAL secret? Learn from our Baniya community. They've got business in their blood. One simple rule: For every ₹100 that comes in, they know EXACTLY where ₹60 needs to go.  Day ONE. Not year three. Not after burning through their savings. Most founders? They're like teenagers with their first credit card - learning about money AFTER the damage is done. The only things you ACTUALLY need: 1️⃣ An idea that makes people say "damn, I needed this!" 2️⃣ Enough cash to keep the lights on (and a plan for every rupee) 3️⃣ Vision that's crystal clear about where you're heading My co-founder, Richa Kapila started at 23 with just one year of work experience. I've seen others crushing it at 40, 50, even 65. Because here's the truth: The graveyard of failed businesses isn't filled with "wrong timing." It's filled with founders who thought timing mattered more than preparation. P.S. My comments are open for the crazy ones ready to take the leap. Let's talk.

Quit your 9-5. You see people making videos saying that, but they never show you what it actually takes to make that leap or what they’re doing to make it work. That’s why I’m launching Building the Biz—a series that pulls back the curtain on building a podcast and a full-service creative studio from the ground up. I’ve been finding ways to make money since I was 9—selling duct-taped wallets at school and later dropshipping products in middle school. I’ve tried a lot, failed a lot, and learned from every step. Fast forward to today, and I’ve successfully launched 131 podcast episodes with The 505 Podcast and I’m building BLUE STRIPE, a full-service creative studio. And the truth is, none of this was easy. There were no shortcuts—just lessons learned and constant adjustments to get it right. In Building the Biz, I’m showing you the real, raw process behind creating a successful podcast and scaling a creative business. The highs, the lows, and the messy middle—it’s all documented. I’m pumped to be heading to North Carolina tomorrow for a new campaign with BlueStripe Studios as the momentum builds. And we just wrapped up an amazing virtual podcast with @TomNoske, where he dropped gems on how creatives can build thriving businesses too. If you have any questions my dms are always open! #BuildingTheBiz #CreativeAgency #Entrepreneurship #Bfiggy
