What percentage of Grapevine lies in the top 1%

India's wealth inequality is at a six-decade high with the top 1% owning 40.1% of wealth. Foreign investments led to a surge in billionaires post-1992. PM Modi's tenure saw a widening rich-poor gap amid rapid economic growth.

India's richest 1% has highest concentration of wealth in decades, study shows

Wealth inequality in India at it's highest. 1% of people control 40% of the wealth 🤔

The last I saw, to be in top 1% individual in terms of wealth, you needed to have assets worth $77k. This is from news article of 2020. Sharing link here -

Now, based on new data, you need to have assets of around $175k. Approx 150% rise in 3 yrs! Link for the same -

What it takes to be in Top 1% of India

All dating through apps / offline / love in general has a common theme that Men finding it difficult to get a girl (their equal). 

How could this be solved ? 

And I find many nice guys be desperate for relationships but girls absolutely dont show the same feelings. 

Intuition says most girls generally go for Top 1 % guys .

Why do girls not show the same desperation/willingness like guys in terms of relationships ? 

Thoughts on this ?

Can this problem be solved ?

I know this will sound like a very biased opinion but just sharing my 2 cents of today’s market.

The way with highest probability of success, money and ensuring a better future for your future generations is to startup.

It has the highest risk, highest reward. But in today’s landscape: where inflation is always higher than your hike, there’s no guarantee of employment even in next 1 years, the effort to remain in top 1% is humongous and many other reasons like that, really make me feel that if you’re able to start a company and even capture 0.1% of market who’s willing to pay something for your service/product, that’s all you need. Of course the struggle doesn’t end there and you have to keep working for as long as possible? But your capacity to earn and provide for generations to come is much higher than working for someone else.

All disagreement is welcome :)
Just tired of running this race for years now and still never feeling financially secure.

The guaranteed way to success (if there’s one)

It depends, founding a startup is a 24/7. For me, I need the time that 9-5 jobs provide after work for my health issues. Also my current company is doing a lot of layoffs so everyday I start with uncertainty and anxiety, but cannot quit cos I need the income. We are definitely moving backwards in growth in this corporate slavery, expensive education and inflation. In India, Our entire identities is based on our jobs as though your life is useless if you don’t have one!!

A lot of noise around AI taking coding jobs, which i fear might be real. Like not completely but you get my point. So how should one upskill themselves (especially the average folks, top 1/2% will not be affected in any field imo) for the upcoming shift? Like will data analytics/science or maybe ai/ml engineering jobs be on rise ? Should be start upskilling in those fields or any other suggestions? I would really like to know it from someone who has good experience in the industry or someone with good insight. Thanks

Software Developer

Bcz of the outburst of ai I feel there are a lot of data scientist/machine learning engineer/data engineer roles in the market and sde roles have bcz very scarce with 1000s of applications
Should ppl shift to these roles from sde ?

Sde has less opening compared to ds/mle/de roles

Data Scientist

Makes sense: I guess even in the US it hasn't crossed 15%? But too much value in this top 15%.

Founder

Do you guys feel that all these years of hardwork, getting best education & hustle to get decent/top job is no way remunerative to what people on SM(insta/yt) influencers make by simply sharing their life/cooking videos/GRWM/nutritionists etc, which we audience consume mindlessly.

Does this change in career mindset going to make children opt out of higher education? I see a lot of people below 18yrs to have below average scientific mind.

Ofcourse, there are people in the same age group doing amazing stuff, building startups etc but an average kid seems lost in the digital space.

Mid life crisis?

I will start. 
I am jealous of Pilots as they get to travel a lot while being paid. ( Having Airhostess/es in their close circles is also one of the reasons )

Professions you are jealous of :)

Am jealous of politicians...kind of power they have simply intriguing

Recently I came across a report in ToI that said earning 80 K per month puts you at top 4% in India. Assuming that the stats is true, do you feel contended with what you earn?

Being in top 5% or 10%, I feel blessed.

WTF, there are Topmate Creator Awards?

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

Hi folks, I'm doing a product teardown on Topmate.io and wanted to understand some things from someone who is either a creator there or has taken a session there.

1) What advantage do you think it offers over its competitors? (Ex - ADPlist)
2) What can be improved for getting more paid sessions for creators?
3) Should it start co-partnering with creators to get sponsorships for the content they are expert at and offering it for free? (For the multiple learner type of sessions)
4) Does the absence of a search bar add to or reduce the efforts of learners while finding the right creator on the platform?
5) What made you use Topmate.io in the first place? (For both learners and creators)
6) Have you faced an issue due to difference of available time zones between the creator and the learner? If yes, what do you think is the best way to solve it?

Key Account Manager

Take this moment to thank my first manager. She changed my entire career and helped my realise true potential. 

I come from a tier 2 college. Come from a very lower middle class family, thanks to my parents who ensured I got everything for my education without worrying about anything. Topped my 10th board and then fumbled in 12th. Joined a tier 2 private college. Did engineering got placed somehow and then found the manager who changed my life and realised how much importance a manager has. She scolded me but helped me with my mistakes learned everything from her. Started at a salary of 5 lpa then in just 6 years of my journey I have reached a base salary of 80lpa as a director of product management. Although I left the first company after 3.5 years but whatever I learned from her has shaped me to what I am. I truly believe and hard work in initial part of my career and I believe without hardwork one cannot achieve top 1% things... My mantra is to give my 100% and even more in the initial part of career then enjoy everything. Today I am able to provide everything to my family. I have enough time, money and health to support myself and my family.

Just a gratitude post. Hard work always pays off. 

My work ex will be 6 years in April btw...

How good managers are important...

5 to 80 in 6 years! 
  
 Mind sharing the YoY hikes?

Product Manager

Since early childhood all I talked, watched and read was Technology. When I got home from school, I worked on C++ and built games by modelling physics, collisions etc. I frequented a ton of online forums for WebGL and other archaic tech that most of you don't even know about.

I knew all about the Silicon Valley, the stories and legends. I learned all about the history of technology and used to work deeply with my father with transistors, ECU/ECMs etc during weekends. 

I thought I knew it all. I thought I was the deal. I remember schooling folks about all of this, making them realise they are dumb as hell. I remember when I stepped into my MS in CS program and attended a club meeting, I realized that I was just like everybody else.

They were all the same as me in hindsight. They knew the same things and lived and breathed the same passion. I knew I wasn't special. For the first time, I suffered ego-death. I thought I was special, and I was not.

This is just a reminder, that you are not special. You are less unique than you think you are. So lose that attitude.

Do you think you are special?

In a nutshell, we're just mental labourers and we're paid more than physical labourers not because  we're smarter, it is done in order to compensate for the compromised health (lowers your testosterone, fucks reward system of your brain, causes deficiency, anxiety, myopia, backpain).
