I’m a teacher and when I see a student struggling with making choices and seeking help, I can’t stop myself from offering my take. Here it is: There are some potential considerations: 1. Financial Stability: Guy 9 from BCG has the highest income, but there’s a BUT, and Lord Tyrion Lannister has said “never hear anything said before a but”. So, gone. Out of consideration. Poooof 💨 2. Career Prestige: Working in high-prestige companies like BCG, Flipkart, or Byju's might suggest high ambition and dedication, these are represented by Guy 1, Guy 2, Guy 7 (and Guy 9 too). But Professor William Deresiewicz says these might be “hoop jumpers, chasing A’s all their lives” and will be depressed when there won’t be anymore A’s to chase or when they can’t chase A’s that well. That is, sooner than you’d know. So, poof poooof pooof… gone gone gone… 3. Age and Stage framework: Guy 5 and Guy 10 are the same age as you are. Though it might mean you are at similar life stages with them. But their career streams are extremely distinct from yours, which might make conversations limited, as in modern world career is an important thing that gets discussed throughout the day and even life. So, I’d not recommend them either. 4. Location: If you're based in Bangalore and prefer to stay there, Guys 1, 2, 3, and 11 are based there. If you're open to moving, consider where you'd like to live. Also, since modern marriages are neither patrilocal (staying at husband’s place), neither matrilocal, they are neolocal (staying at a new place where the careers are). So, this could be a potential point of consideration and crucial in making the choice. 5. Profession: Except Guy 10 (Doctor), Guy 13 (Bank), Guy 14 (IPAC), all rely heavily on technology to advance their careers. Any changes in tech (AI) could mean drastic upheaval in the lives. So, as Ulrich Beck says, the risks are becoming global and there will not be a safe place anywhere in the world should such risks materialise. For example Covid (it was one such risk and it proved Ulrich Beck true). Climate change, rise of unregulated AI, pollution levels are future threats. In this case, the banker guy and the doctor emerge to be the top choices, with greater inclination towards the Doctor as he’s just starting out after the trainings and internships. Remember, marriages fall apart not because they are either arranged or love, they fall apart when there’s no arrangement of love. And love in today’s time, as Anthony Giddens says, is “plastic”. That is, it is extremely mouldable according to the diverse needs of the time and person in point. Also, be free of the idea that the marriage is a “once in a lifetime” affair. One can always try again if one didn’t work out. So, take your chances and of course, make a choice and invite us too when you do. My best wishes

This is an amazing decision making model, given by the founder of Amazon, Jeff Bezos. He asks us to categorize decisions based on whether they are reversible or irreversible - the risk is decided by this factor 👉 Reversible - 2 way door: Can go back from the decision with less or no cost 👉 Irreversible - 1 way door: If you decide once you can't exit or the cost is very high 👉 Reversible: Decide quickly without perfect process and execute (This is not to be reckless though) 👉 Irreversible: Decide slowly and take as much information into account as possible. He also takes the impact of the decision into account to make it more granular as shown in the figure above. Understand this 2x2 matrix and make it a habit. When Bezos was deciding to leave his job at DE Shaw to start Amazon, he thought that he could come back to the job if his business doesn't work out. So it was a reversible decision. He decided to launch Amazon quickly, got the first mover advantage and the rest is history!
