At 67, here's one piece of advice I'd give anyone under 30:
Travel as much as you can while you're young. 🌍
You don't need to be rich. Fly economy. Stay in hostels. Take overnight trains. Backpack across borders. Sleep on a friend's couch. Eat street food. Get lost in places where nobody speaks your language.
Leave your comfort zone and experience the world beyond the one you've always known.
Dance with locals. Try unfamiliar foods. Listen to cathedral bells echo through ancient streets and hear the call to prayer drift across a crowded city. Walk through little alleyways, share meals with strangers, and make friends with people whose lives look nothing like yours.
Learn how other cultures think, love, work, celebrate, and survive. Discover that people can speak different languages, follow different traditions, and believe different things while still sharing the same hopes, fears, and dreams.
The world is much bigger than your hometown, your social circle, or what you see on a screen.
Travel won't just give you beautiful photographs and unforgettable stories. It'll challenge your assumptions, humble you, broaden your perspective, and teach you to appreciate things you once took for granted.
Don't spend your entire youth waiting until you have more money, a better job, or the perfect time. You can always earn more money, but you can't buy back the years you spent being afraid to explore.
Go see the world. Meet its people. Embrace its differences.
And when you return home, bring back more than souvenirs. Bring back a wider perspective, a more open heart, and a deeper understanding of humanity.
The best thing travel can give you isn't a passport full of stamps. It's a mind that has expanded and a heart that has learned to see the world differently. ❤️🌎

Having the ability to live below your means is the true wealth hack ✅
$100,000+ salary is a solid salary but not if your lifestyle demands 95% of it. I’ve seen people that earn way less become millionaires over time. It’s not about how much you earn, It’s about how much you keep and invest.

It’s interesting that Chopper and Robin don’t look shocked, but rather puzzled.
This "tool" doesn't have to be anything earth-shattering; a simple Haki knot saved the Straw Hats last time.
I think this time it will be a technological tool.

Mercor is paying $20/hour to watch Indian cricket matches and help train AI models.
This might be the coolest way to make easy money.

America once gave a patent on haldi. Yes, the same haldi your mother puts on every cut.
In 1995 the US Patent Office gave the University of Mississippi Medical Center a patent for using turmeric powder to heal wounds. On paper, the idea now belonged to them.
Dr R A Mashelkar was heading CSIR in India then. His team decided to fight it. They dug out old Sanskrit texts and Indian medical papers showing we had used haldi on wounds for centuries.
On 13 August 1997 the US cancelled the patent. The whole fight cost India about 5 lakh rupees.
It was the first time a developing country got a US patent on its traditional knowledge cancelled. After that India built a digital library of old Ayurveda and Yoga texts so nobody abroad could do this again.
Next time you put haldi on a cut, remember someone had to go to America to prove it was ours.

Steve Waugh 🗣️:
People always say to me, "What's the secret to success?" and it's always the same answer: hard work.
You look at Shane Warne, one of the greatest bowlers of all time.
He worked harder than anyone else on his bowling. He was always analyzing it, practicing it.
And I remember one story: Carl Hooper took him apart in a test match in Barbados on the first day of the series, turning wicket.
He was just randomly charging him and putting him over cover and mid-wicket.
We thought that was really strange, like, "How did you do that?"
So, Warne went home that night and got the tapes of the day's play and went through them.
And when Carl Hooper was tapping his bat in his normal stance, he was going to play like a conservative normal shot, either forward or back.
But there was other occasions where he didn't tap his bat and his bat was up in the air, and that was the balls he was going to charge.
So, the next day, as soon as he saw no tapping, he threw it out wide and stumped him.
So that's an example of, you know, someone looking for that 1 or 2 percent difference that makes him a great player.

One of my friends called me a little while ago and asked: “Bro, this #SundayScience thread is fine, but how can I actually explain it to my grandchildren?”
This is what I said 😊
Clouds are made of lots and lots of teeny-tiny water drops. So tiny you can't see just one!
Tiny drops fall very, very slowly, like a feather. And the wind carries them here & there, and even pushes them up!
But sometimes the little drops bump into each other and stick together. Bump, stick, become bigger! Bump, stick, become bigger!
Bigger drops fall faster and faster, like a stone.
So the cloud stays up in the sky, and the big drops come down as rain. Pitter-patter, splish-splash!
The other day, my 4yo grandson looked at the sky and asked “Thatha, why are the little rain drops falling, but the big clouds don’t fall?”
I thought I knew the answer. I didn’t.
So I started digging. And what I found was much more fascinating than I expected.

This is the interesting part about Amul milk at Costco in the US.
Amul is not shipping milk from India to America. Amul partnered with Michigan Milk Producers Association (MMPA), a 100+ year-old American dairy cooperative.
American farmers provide the milk.
MMPA brings the local dairy infrastructure.
Amul brings its technology, formulation and brand.
And the finished Amul Gold 6% milk is now sitting in Costco refrigerators. 🇮🇳🤝🇺🇸 That’s a pretty smart way to take an Indian food brand global.
Make it locally. Brand it globally.

For the India vs Japan cricket match today, this leaflet about the rules of the game was distributed in the gate. (translated from Japanese) Quite thoughtful, yet quite amusing!

Two days ago at the lounge at Chennai airport, they were serving piping hot bajji!
Despite how broken the Chennai airport is, this brought joy to every single person in that room that day. It was pretty tasty too! 4-5PM every Thursday, they have something cooking literally!
