For God’s sake, I’m requesting everyone to start thinking a little like a hedge fund.
By “buy insurance,” I don’t literally mean buying an insurance policy. I mean having insurance for your money a plan that protects you if your main investment idea goes wrong.
Indian stocks are not the only place where money can grow.
There is gold, silver, bonds, FDs, commodities, global markets and different types of businesses.
For example, if you understand the oil cycle, companies like Oil India may benefit when oil moves in their favour. If that idea doesn’t work, maybe equities somewhere else work. If equities struggle, bonds can act as some kind of protection. The point is not that one asset will always work. The point is to stop depending on only one thing.
You can also look at growing countries, strong companies, businesses with real moats, manageable leverage and good cash flows.
But please read. Study. Understand what you are doing.
Stop asking every second person, “Should I buy?”, “Should I sell?”, “Should I hold?”
And stop being glued to business news channels all day.
Understand their business model too. They need TRP, engagement and advertisers. Brokers need transactions and brokerage. Companies advertise on these platforms. Everyone has their own incentive. That doesn’t automatically mean they are wrong, but you need to understand the incentive behind the information you are consuming.
Nobody is coming to save your money.
The next 10 years of your life matter a lot. Losing 2-3 years going nowhere also has an opportunity cost because those years could have been spent compounding money, building a business, studying, improving your career or learning a valuable skill.
Cash also has value.
The person who has liquidity when everyone else is struggling may get better opportunities.
And please stay away from options if you don’t deeply understand them.
We take even a 60% probability seriously while making business decisions. So when SEBI repeatedly warns that a huge percentage of individual F&O traders lose money, why do people behave like those odds don’t matter?
The market is not dead. That is not what I’m saying.
I’m saying this is the time to be very choosy about where you deploy your money. Don’t blindly hold something without understanding the downside or without having some kind of hedge or backup plan.
Focus on your business.
Focus on your job.
Focus on studying.
Focus on becoming 1% better every day instead of watching a screen every five minutes.
Explore other ways of growing money outside the stock market too.
And please stop blindly following broker tips.
Sometimes I find it funny that people giving stock tips themselves may be buying real estate, building businesses or diversifying their own wealth while convincing you that every opportunity is inside the stock market.
Open your eyes and observe.
Look at the return you actually made over the last couple of years. Then compare that with the return you could have earned from FD, bonds, gold, commodities or simply by putting more time into your business or career.
Don’t try to defeat the market just for the ego of saying you beat the Nifty.
If you spent two years making almost nothing while another boring asset compounded quietly, that lost time also matters.
Compounding needs time.
If you keep restarting from zero, those years are gone.
And Reddit, Tele, Twitter, TV — nobody knows your financial situation better than you should.
People speak with huge confidence online, but confidence doesn’t mean they know the future.
This is not a rant post.
This is genuinely a wake-up alert from someone who has also made mistakes.
I took risks knowingly.
I started doing this around 22. I’m 25 now.
If I fail, at least I still have years ahead to learn, rebuild and perform better. But that itself taught me how valuable time really is.
No one will give you the perfect advice.
You have to open your eyes and accept one basic truth:
Everything can fail.
Stocks can fail.
Gold can fall.
Bonds can disappoint.
Businesses can fail.
Countries can slow down.
Your own thesis can be completely wrong.
So prepare for that.
Don’t just have a plan.
Have a plan for what happens when your plan doesn’t go according to plan.
Learn compounding.
Protect your downside.
Keep liquidity.
Take calculated risks.
Keep growing your income.
And most importantly, don’t destroy your peace of mind just to make a few extra percentage points.
Money should eventually give you freedom.
It shouldn’t make you spend your entire life staring at a screen.
Grow your money, grow yourself, protect yourself and enjoy your life too.
