I talk to Rohit Chauhan, founder of RC Capital Management, and one of the first individuals in India to start a blog dedicated to serious investing way back in 2004. In this episode, Rohit talks about his best investing decision made 10 years back, reasons why compounding is so hard to practice, power of simplicity in life and investing, life's true riches that go beyond money, journaling, power of meditation, and much more.

Rohit's video is hidden on his request. But that should not take away anything from the wonderful insights he shares in this episode. Thank you.

I remember reading his blogs and also remember that he had started something similar to PMS and at that time the initial investment was 10 lakhs

[@teebone25]

Vishal, Im an early subscriber, I love your podcasts and I've seen almost every episode. Not having video does take away a lot from the conversation. Viewers tend to lose their attention quickly when theres a lack of video.Especially when your audience are used to having video in all ur podcasts. I understand it was a personal request but it does take away a lot from the entire experience!
