As of now, my life's gonna be a luxury as I can drive a Harley in morning and a Tesla in evening at cheaper price, have almonds, apples, chickpeas, lentils, and walnuts at much cheaper price, wear a cheaper high quality imported footware, have a bottle of American bourbon whiskey from several prominent U.S. bourbon brands like Maker's Mark Bourbon, Woodford Reserve, JD jack daniels. Trump did what Modi ji couldn't, Trump is my President😃 Really a master stroke. Can't wait to see all Indian companies getting impacted who are into these sectors.😇 along with stocks now I have options to buy Harley, Tesla and many more things with the same cash.

Stanford teaches what’s happening now, while much of IIT academia is stuck in the past. I got into Apple on my grades, but built Hotmail by learning on the job. Today, free knowledge from internet is the real teacher. Innovation comes from doing, not just studying. #Entrepreneurship #Innovation #Education
