The journey from Mysore to Coimbatore was bumpy.
The roads were terrible for much of the way.
We did the first 70 kilometres in two hours.
And then we went on better roads and down what we think are the Vindhya Hills to Coimbatore.
There were 27 hairpin bends heading down the ghats.
And at every hairpin bend we had to blast the horn to make sure that the buses and trucks racing up a curve at high speed to avoid a stall, would not plough into us.
Raju was happy. In Bombay,I forbid him from honking and/or from cutting lanes.
Here, that is the only way to survive.
But that does not mean you surrender your discipline when investing.
No matter how tempting – or how frightening – the situation is, never lose sight of your objectives – or the risks you are willing to take and live with if the notional risk becomes a reality.
The Investor Meet in Coimbatore also went on from 5.30 pm to 9.45 pm.
Another 4 hour and fifteen minute marathon session.
Our message has a huge impact on the audience.
They are curious; they are bewildered at the ease of the solution: why were they not told this before?
Why did it take the 29th mutual fund house – not owned by a large industrial group, a bank, or an insurance company – to show them the Path to Profit?
I am tired now.
I have started antibiotics – called my father, who is also my doctor, and he said I need to give my voice a break.
Well, I enjoy this a lot.
Will keep at it, as long as I can….
And the modem is working again…so these notes will get to you.
