Smart Indian-American children, whose parents work in engineering or tech, are moving to High Finance.
This mirrors what smart Americans have done for well over a generation - when I got my PhD from Princeton in 1994, a former engineer from silicon valley, who moved to a Wall Street job, tried to persuade me to join their quantitative analysis and trading team and I instead took a lower paying job as an engineer at Qualcomm. I did not find the idea of making money on money appealing - probably my father's admonition from childhood.
Recently I have noticed that smart well-educated Indians are gravitating to Finance. This is not good.
We need to apply our talents to solve hard engineering and tech problems, hard urban and rural infrastructure problems, hard health care problems and so on.
Making money on money feels easy but a finance-driven economy would destroy society. This is ancient wisdom, and we must pay heed.🙏

I’ve played with you for 14 years and when you told me today you’re retiring, it made me a bit emotional and the flashbacks of all those years playing together came to me. I’ve enjoyed every bit of the journey with you ash, your skill and match winning contributions to Indian cricket are second to none and you will always and always be remembered as a legend of Indian cricket. Wish you nothing but the best in your life with your family and everything else that it unfolds for you. With massive respect and lots of love to you and your close ones. Thanks for everything buddy.❤️🇮🇳 @ashwinravi99

#Breaking: Multiple requests have been sent to Dr Gangadhar, Dr Srinivas @dryogendermalik & Dr. Vanikar, but their staunch resistance to hearing the faculty is astonishing. Why is it so difficult to retain disability content? Thanks to the Madras HC for their order yesterday. 1/
