About


1) Great writers comfort the confused and confuse the comforted.
2) Writing every day is the best way to become a better public speaker. Talking about things you’ve already written about it is easy, and your ideas will be so well-structured that people will call you a genius.
​3) Writing becomes a lot easier once you realize people only remember your best work.
​4) Writing isn’t the byproduct of deep thinking. It's where deep thinking actually happens.

This Publication provides the reader with essays and a weekly newsletter on Investing known as ‘Saturday Serendipity’.

Saturday Serendipity

This is a weekly summary of quotes, mental models, Twitter threads, articles, thoughts, questions or anything that I find interesting that week. This will come to your email every week. I think this email newsletter is beneficial for everyone and I would not limit it to only investors.

Essays

These essays are mainly going to be related to investing and business. These essays are hopefully of value to readers. I write about various investors, some interesting case studies and even some personal thoughts on investing.

About me

I am 18 years old and honestly speaking I am going to probably be an average investor. As of now, I am a student but I have found it to be very valuable for me to write about the topics that I learn. My main goal is to be consistent in my writing and over time gain knowledge as well as provide value for readers.

I got into the stock market and learnt about investing my father showed me an HBO documentary on Warren Buffett. After that there was no looking back I wanted to be like him. There was something different about him he seemed to have no stress in life. He was also quite simple in his approach. But as a normal teenager, some time went by and I forgot about this. Then later that year I had seen ‘psychology of money’ on Instagram and I asked my Dad if I could read that book. I still remember the day properly. He gave me the book and I tried my best to read it. It was hard at first but as time went on it became a daily habit for me to read before I went to bed. There was no set amount of pages but I read. The book moved me so much that I kept asking for more and my father always had more books. He taught me that I should underline and write notes in the book and truly make it mine.

As a kid, I never really understood what my Dad does. He is a Value Investor and I understand that now but till the age of 17, I had no clue. My Dad was a multidisciplinary learner who was an engineer by degree but an investor by profession. He was always an inspiration to me. He used to read a lot and he still does. As an investor also I don’t think I will ever be as good as him.

Okay coming back on track now, I have been an investor for very little time but I have been reading for two years and I have been consistent with it. I feel like my knowledge will compound at a higher rate if I keep writing about the things I learn and experience.

As a reader what you can expect is simple. You are going to get the perspective of a young Value investor and what he is learning and what his views are. I feel like I have a certain blend of thinking from different investors but again what do I know?

So if you do subscribe you are in for in my opinion content which is going to add value for you even if you are an experienced investor because you get the perspective of someone who is a beginner.
