No context. Is he a scammer?

I never thought of Nikhil highly after his podcast. He came out as very immature and childish.

Sharan like many other influenzas sold or advocated to sketchy investment services/app does subpar clickbaity content etc etc. Glorified halfbaked misinformation peddler. There's really a huge audience who might wants to implement his "advice", while they're earning 100x less than him.

Ohh. Proves my point.

As mature and humble Nithin is... his brother talks a lot and doesn't seem as smart

Paisa hi paise ko khichta hai. Anyway, I think everyone will be jumping on this content creator ship or seeking to invest in it as it’s literally generating absurd revenue. Like seriously these people are getting similar platforms as famous actors and such. He’s just diversifying his investment I guess

Very much possible, but isn't this content creator led way of selling stuff already hyped too much,

Actually you're wrong. Content creation doesn't pay much, that's why influencers try selling their own brands or startups eventually.

Every investment is not done for returns. Some are down for other things also.

Another example to show how startup ecosystem is unfair.

Many deserving startups are not getting funding but scammers in the name of influencers are enjoying after making many lose money

I feel out of that 10cr sharan would have given him back a significant chunk or would have offered some tangible object as collateral. We don't know the exact terms of their deal. He just wants kamanth ka brand name to fool common people since janta feels kamath is a god and will blindly follow him. Kamath would not blindly put 10cr (even though insignificant to him) on a finfluencer with no real startup exp.
