Zerodha's Nikhil Kamath compares trading to dating: ‘It's great at first, then it gets bad, but…'
In a world where degrees often overshadow drive, Nikhil Kamath is proof that ambition, grit, and relentless self-education can write their own success story. The Zerodha co-founder, who once dropped out of school after Class 10, recently addressed a hall full of eager graduates with a speech that was anything but conventional. Peppered with wit, humility, and real-world insights, Kamath's convocation address didn't just inspire, it disarmed, revealing the unfiltered realities of failure, persistence, and the long game. Speaking to the students, Kamath candidly walked them through his rollercoaster of a journey—from selling second-hand mobile phones at the age of 15 to co-founding one of India's most influential financial platforms, Zerodha. Unlike the textbook tales of entrepreneurship , his story wasn't born in a B-school dorm or backed by an elite degree. Instead, it was crafted in the messy trenches of risk, uncertainty, and sheer repetition. One of the most memorable moments from his speech was when he likened trading to romantic relationships. "When you start dating someone initially, things are great. Then they get bad. And if you stay the course, maybe they get better again," he shared. The same, he said, applies to the stock market . Initial success may come easily, thanks to beginner's luck, but it's staying through the rough patches that builds real expertise. He advises to 'stay the course' stressing that weathering the downs is where the real learning happens. The video was shared on Dhirubhai Ambani International School's Facebook page. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trading CFD dengan Teknologi dan Kecepatan Lebih Baik IC Markets Mendaftar Undo About Nikhil Kamath Nikhil Kamath, the co-founder of Zerodha, is one of India's youngest self-made billionaires, with an estimated net worth of approximately Rs 22,000 crore, according to the latest Forbes data.

Nita Ambani pairs chandelier diamond earrings with golden beige kurta set and radiates ethical charm
Founder of the Dhirubhai Ambani International School, Nita Ambani, graced the graduation ceremony of Class 2025 in an elegant outfit. For the event, Mrs. Ambani donned a golden-accented kurta set, ditching her signature saree sway. She paired the gorgeous fit with large diamond earrings and completed her look with grace and opulence. Let's zoom in to dissect her fit: The business mogul donned a beige kurta set, which was every inch ravishing, thanks to its stunning fabric and detailed floral work. The element that truly brought the charisma to Nita Ambani's kurta was its luscious, satin fabric. The kurta featured a relaxed, A-line silhouette, making it both comfortable and spectacular. The V-neckline with elbow-length sleeves was perfect for the cultural event. The print of the outfit was indeed noteworthy, as it featured a cluster of white flower branches spanning the entire fabric. The gorgeous white flower motifs reflected light, making the outfit a festive yet understated attire. A soft and intricate golden zari work decorated the motif, making it a standout piece. The knee-length kurta exuded an understated and sophisticated charm. Radhika Merchant's mother-in-law paired the kurta with matching flared pants. Skipping the usual straight-cut or patiala bottoms, the flared pants added to the festive appeal of the dress. Another significant highlight of this ethnic outfit was the organza dupatta. Its sheer fabric added a whimsical charm to the gorgeous, satin fit. It featured a golden-accented trim with small gilded motifs that decorated the dupatta. Nita Ambani's diamond earrings Nita Ambani lavishly accessorized her ethnic outfit with diamond jewelry. She donned chandelier diamond earrings to complement her regal look. The delicate, circular-shaped earrings cascaded into small droplets of diamonds, making them a stunning adornment. She also wore a statement diamond ring. The high socialite wore a stack of diamond bangles on one wrist and adorned another wrist with a vintage-style watch. The brown leather watch with a small dial added sophistication to Ambani's ensemble. Ambani carried a brown leather bag to the event from the brand BY FAR. The label's ball croco bag featured croc texture and a sheer brown ball around the wrist strap. For the makeup, the philanthropist flaunted the classic winged eyeliner. With a glowy base, blushed-up cheeks, and light contour, the Ambani matriarch radiated an unmissable charm. Her hairstyle wasn't basic either; she flaunted a stylish updo with her front strands twisted and tucked into a low bun.
