I took an action and told someone honestly what I was thinking about, after watching this interview. I sent an email explaining my position, which I was a bit reluctant to accept before. OMG, this guys arrogance of clarity is so attractive. I wish to be as bluntly honest as this guy one day. Respect Vinod Khosla. We Indians take lot of pride when we see you as our role model.

A lot of people consistently say they’ll make millions each new year but don’t plan how they’re gonna make it, which investment they’ll put funds in, which skill to acquire. There’s so much opportunity to earn and multiply funds.

[@kelvinjohnson3906]

@Joe Robert Risky investments but good luck buddy.

[@noelstout3056]

@Joe Robert It is totally achievable if you trade with the right skills, I made my first million through consistent trading in crypto, and that was achieved with the help of my trading coach Dan Raziel, who takes on my trade and ensure I benefit irrespective of how the market turns. There are some stocks in my portfolio as well that has done the numbers.

[@noelstout3056]

@Rahul Toggi I’m least worried about the risks, Dan has greatly enhanced my earnings and helped build a portfolio that’s helped cleared all my debt. In my first 5 months I received a trade profit of $87,000 with an investment of $12,000. It’s been 3 years and I’m very confident in the future performance of my portfolio.

It's true that investing and taking calculated risks is important in achieving financial success, but what's more important is the mindset and philosophy behind it. Khosla's emphasis on speaking the truth, having a strong belief system, and being persistent and bold in pursuing one's goals is truly inspiring. His message is universal and applicable not just in the world of finance and business, but in all aspects of life. Let's all take a page from his book and strive to live with integrity, purpose, and perseverance.

[@SVTX.AP0L0_]

Most of the best of this talk is in the first 30 to 40 minutes... From then on it gets a bit 'redundant'. I agree with the core message: -Have a "beliefs system"... I would rather say a philosophy, a core of values and work ethics. -Say what you really think instead of what people wants to hear... They might or might not thank you, but say it. -Take bigger risks. On the other hand and quoting him: "If I wanted to be a good Doctor In 15, 20 years, I wouldn't go to the Med school, I would go to the math department..." No man ,you have no idea of the sh_t you are talking in those silly lines... If you took that path you might become a great technician on mathematics applied to science, but nothing more than that... In order to really be a GREAT Doctor not only you can't skip the great amount of knowledge only Medical School can provide you, but you have to be a real human being, in the deepest sense of the expression first... And that is something I don't wish you to learn when lying and dying on an emergency room bed, just to discover that there is a technician in maths for you in the place where a real Doctor with sense of humanity should be. (I am stating this as a proud Medical Doctor by the way. 😉) Thanks for sharing this talk. 👍

Problem is that a “belief” is sometimes formulated by being told what to believe in. I’m guessing what Mr. Khosla is referring to is a belief informed by studying, learning, and researching something on your own.

[@joy-ow4ey]

Then that's ok i guess. For example, if you yourself believe that going to army is the best way to lead life, a belief formed due to being told by your parents. Then you live a more or less fulfilled life, because you think you are doing something worthy. Problem is if you have something at the back of your mind, but never try it and keep feeling discontent.
