In this video, I break down my entire career journey from age 17 to 44, tracking the value of my time from ₹9/hour as a tuition teacher to ₹2 lakh/hour running WebVeda. Through this 28-year journey, you'll see why my career wasn't a straight line but rather a series of strategic risks, calculated salary cuts, and investments in myself. Every time I took a pay cut, I was betting on long-term growth.
The most powerful insight? My value of time increased by 20,000x with a 44% compound annual growth rate - better than any stock, crypto, or real estate investment I've ever made. This makes ME my best investment. Whether you're starting your career or considering a pivot, remember that sometimes taking a strategic step back leads to the biggest leaps forward. Your career isn't about continuous upward movement but about strategically maximizing your time's value in the long run.
