Ankur warikoo : English version of Vivek Bindra?

Thanks to year end holidays, after reading recent news and wasting time on reels - I felt, Ankur warikoo is the English medium version of Vivek Bindra, reasoning here is -

Same rags to riches story (overwhelming)
Sudden rise with no backstory
Course selling by dubious promises
Immature, vulnerable target audience
Over advertisements

Any other insights?

He is kinda Gary Vaynurchuk of India (without energy). Vivek Bindra is a scammer.

The big difference is Gary started giving gyaan after getting rich and maybe selling courses/influencing isn’t only revenue stream.

Yes but Vivek Bindra is a different breed.

The way to visualise it is a spectrum.

Vivek Bindra Ankur Warikoo Maheshwari Divyakirti Sharan Sisinty ....

I think sisinity will wind up sooner, others might play a longer game.

All of them will wind up sooner than later. I'd say 5-8 years at best. The kind of messaging they do has its own half life.

The only lifelong sustainable messaging is spirituality / religion.

My argument is, if you're such a good trader/finance guy/guru of whatever it is that you promote, why the **** are you not known as the best, in some context? Like the best traders on the market don't want their identities to be public. They don't share their bloody strategies on the internet for validation. What makes you so special? All you do is take other people's work and repackage it into your words. Sure you're a good storyteller, but that's all you are. Again, that's how _ i_ feel.
