Rules to grow your wealth

Mathi Yosi ( Think Differently)

Recently there was news of Thyrocare being bought over by Pharmeasy, a startup in the medical and clinical distribution space. The news brought out aspects of Dr A Velumani’s life and how he built the extraordinary company Thyrocare ( to Rs 6000 Crores with a very limited capital of just Rs 2 lakhs of investments). The central theme of Dr A Velumani enterprise has been “ Privilege of Poverty'', the first talk of Dr A Velumani that I heard was at TIECON Chennai https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mM4wt5DFnE

One of the extraordinary facts of Dr A Velumani’s success he attributes time and again is Poverty and Lack of adequate resources while growing up. I think back often to my own life and times when I have failed and looked for excuses like lack of money as the reason. Since Money cannot defend itself, it is an easy excuse for millions of us , so ask a business owner why he can’t grow, he will say lack of adequate money. Ask a new start up why he is struggling, the answer again may be “money”.

However we also come across Rags to Riches stories like that of Dr A Velumani who came with nothing to end up building a colossus.

So what’s the message from Dr Velumani’s life :

You don’t need to start rich to end up rich; but you need to be Hungry
Success is rarely about one thing alone, it is a combination of your discipline, presence of mind( common Sense), Risk taking ability and ability to stay calm in the storm ;

These same rules apply to you while growing your wealth as well.
