Bollywood needs to move away from its obsession with cricket.  Movies on cricket is an outdated concept and it wont work.

"You don't always have to live your Parents' dreams"

"You don't always have to live your Parents' dreams"- Grapevine

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

I grew up with a stay at home mom but I have plenty of friends who grew up with “power couple” parents. If anything, the kids with working moms were better prepared for school and were more... polished? And I know plenty of fuck ups whose retarded moms stayed at home and/or whose parents ended up in nasty ass divorces with their “helpless” moms cleaning out their dads.

I don’t think there is anything wrong with nannies and having help. You grow to love them in a different way and they give you another perspective as you grow. It’s not like kids with nannies automatically assume that their parents don’t love them, and it’s rare for both parents to be completely absent all the time unless they never wanted kids in the first place. I feel like the argument against nannies and career women is usually made from bitter people who can’t afford them

I won’t settle for someone who doesn’t have a career. Not a job, a career. Maybe she’ll make the decision to stay at home for a few years but I don’t want to bankroll the seamless and reality show watching habits of an intellectually lazy partner for the rest of my life. I’ve seen firsthand the type of woman who doesn’t want to be challenged, what happens to the men who marry them, and how their kids turn out. Fuck that noise. This isn’t the 1980s

And if you think you can maintain your lifestyle in Bangalore/Mumbai once you have kids on a single income, think again, especially when your friends have paired off with those dreaded career girls.

Welcome to Personal Finance's Private Community

DINKs, (dual income no kids) have been gaining traction a lot lately. I want to know from the members of gravevine, what are their views on being a DINK couple or a DINKWAD( double income no kids with a dog). From financial prospects like having a huge disposable income to emotional aspects like not having a legacy or going against custom Indian tradition. Do share your thoughts 🤔💭

What are your thoughts about being DINKS?

Holi hai? Diwali hai? So what, nothing to enjoy. Lets spend the day laying on the bed, watching stuff over phone. Feeling less and less disconnected with friends, to the point where I feel I don't even have friends. College friends are based in another city. Didn't even try to make friends at workplace. Stuck alone in my homecity as past 6 years I was based somewhere else completing my grad and preparing for jee. Prior to that focused a lot on studies. So had little to no interaction with people during academics. And now when I have time and money to spend, there is noone with whom I can have fun with.

The older I get, the lesser my excitement becomes for festivals

Why do relatives feel that they should always talk about doing things the right way and how do they know what they say is the right way?

Some examples -
- to lose weight, focus on walking and fully come to normal BMI and then only do weight training. But, research suggests weight training to be more beneficial for both weight loss and increasing metabolism
- we should drink hot water to lose weight. What?😂
- get married early and marriage is the only way to go!
- our screen time shouldn't be more with mobile, but rather with tv
- don't use earphones, they damage ears
- Some fruits are beneficial for diabetes

Don't get me wrong, I love relatives. I just don't enjoy someone giving advice when I didn't ask them. Especially when I can't trust their source of information for anything - life advices, religion, shastra,  traditions, women's rights etc.

And, I am really tired fighting battle and tackling so much misinformation about everything. All I do is just listen to them and move on!

Wanted to know what do you guys do?

How do you deal with unsolicited advice of relatives?

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

I work in a slowing industry (Ed-Tech!) in a generalist role (Project Management!) for half a decade now! You'd think I would be better positioned to deal with life! Heck, NO! 

This crippling feeling of insecurity or job loss always puts an extra stress on day to day life. I couldn't take any risks in terms of a house or a car or a big EMI purchase in life! 

What if I get laid off? Will this generalist role help in landing anything next? Do I need an MBA for that? Switching to any specialized roles will take extensive preparation with time being in short supply with family and kids! 

Seem to have been strangled in the startup world. Any cure for this?

P.S : Sometimes thinking : Mommy sahi bolti thi. Govt job le leni chahiye thi. :D

I've been trying to login to the NPS portal via both web and mobile app to contribute to save taxes, but this is really the most pathetic portal I've ever seen.

On the web app it says 'Entered and Computed Captcha incorrect' god-damn everytime.

On the mobile app, the payment screen doesn't load.

How are you guys contributing to NPS? Is there any other way apart from the portal? 

One of my friends does contribute to it via ET Money. But I'm not sure if it's safe to do via a private company. What if ET Money dissolves? Does my money get affected too?

 Interested to know what you guys are doing.

Recently I was talking to a girl who was working a startup in BLR. She left the startup with some horrendous experiences. This startup was working from a startup hostel in BLR. Things she told me shook me. She was dating the founder.

So this founder who claims to be on his 2nd startup dates his own employees and then blackmails them.
The average age of his employees is 24. All these girls that he dates are not above 23/24

Apparently this guy has 2 court cases against him. One for fraud and one for a rape case. Both of them are not easily found online. He uses VC money to keep in under the hood.

The fraud case is about his first startup which was a stolen idea apparently. 

This guy’s whole life is fake.
He claims to be an IIT Madras dropout, but he's from some local college. 

There are rumours that one of the girls he dated tried to kill herself because he allegedly filmed them.

He also does not pay salaries for months to his employees but compensates by giving them expensive gifts.

He claims his parents are IAS officers but we checked and they are not. 

His last startup was around around AUTH and current one is around Fintech

Girls and boys stay away from working with such shady startups.

Having lost both my parents, sometimes I feel extremely sad and demotivated for life ahead. I feel at the end we all will die and there is absolute no control on anything that happens with us. Still we are in this rat race of earning more blah blah. What's the point

WTF One more suicide!

Does this bother you that you will not meet your parents enough?

Let's say your parents are around 55 years old and will live till 80. If we consider you will go to your months 4 times in a year and let's say each time you are going for 10 days, which means 40 days in a year and 1000 days in total. Less than 3 years and. 

I am not even considering that when you visit them, you will still have work as mostly you will take wfh and not leave.

Does this fact bother you that you will not be able to spend much time with them?

Apart from "life is short" which other lines do you use before you make bad decisions.

Hey guys, 
I've been thinking of creating an app for Indians and NRIs help keep track of parents, especially when they're far. It would let you see where they are (like Life360), book an Uber for them, order groceries, urban clap, helper, and even call emergency services if needed. Thought it could be super useful for peace of mind! 

The Tg is parents intier 1 cities 

Would you guys be into something like this? What other features do you think would be cool to have?

I like my work, sort of a workaholic and kind of an over achiever (not trying to show off or be a narcissist).
My boss literally told me to get an offer elsewhere and he will match it, he got me a promotion and a 40% hike.
But I hardly find the motivation to search for jobs.
I'm a good problem solver, but I find the whole interview and selection process in the IT industry very systematic.. they test on concepts which hardly get used at work on the ground level. 
If i grind for a couple of interviews I would certainly get a good offer and get retained at my company, but I don't find the motivation to job hunt and prepare for interviews.
I participate in all my company's innovation initiatives and hackathons. Won a couple of them. 
I love sharing knowledge, and I don't limit myself to any role, I can work as a Product owner, tester, dev, support engineer, and often contribute to a lot of forums within my company.

I'm not that into money. Everyone I say this too tells me to give my money to them if I don't want it. Lol.
So I'm convinced that I'm not being practical..
Is something wrong with me? I agree that I deserve more, but should I do something about it?

I also suppose that I'm in a sort of a comfort zone which is preventing me from preparing for interviews.

Thanks for reading this, I'm open to sincere thoughts as well as jokes.

I'm happy with my pay and work. But my boss, parents and social circle think i deserve more.

Both are right as per their own era

Grapeviners, can you, with all honesty convince a non-believer like me into getting married and having children. If you do, my parents will send a million blessings your way. 

About me: 
- Female, 28
- mostly introverted, very selectively extroverted
- single and normally attractive
- Jinxed when it comes to relationships
- Financially independent, Net worth: 1 cr
- not bragging, but I'm decently intellectual and I can have smart conversations

My reason to resist marriage is: I'm scared it won't work out and will cause bigger problems than being single. Have seen too many unhappy marriages in family and friends. Dating scenes in recent times have only made things even more unimpressive.
