Yes Indians are always interesting
info : 1. Business cycles are going to be a lot faster as people are tend in invest in high volatality . 2. Trust gets concerntrated in top companies and familiar companies . As this happens top companies launches more products in the market , like tata in indian. It is mostly in low trust society ,more concerntration. 3. Lower the diversity in ethnicity higher the trust , but it kills innovation . Also higher the diversity the diversity kills trust . So the balance between them is necessary.
A bit of a brain squirt but some gems could be found. I did listen to the podcast. Thanks Shane and TKP for sharing.
Awesome stuff. Never thought about value and margins this way.
Thank you very much for this podcast
People pay or people give you time or money when their core motivations are mostly met or there is hope for the motivations to be met. That's the reason companies like Byju's and other Education Tech companies are getting so popular because they give hope to parents that their core motivations will be met, that is their child getting into IITs .
Amazing episode. Very insightful ,🔥

Trust is low in non-western societies, so therefore trust is high in western societies. In low trust societies that don't have ethnic diversity, there is a rise of authoritarian leaders to bring the peace. However in the US, a western, multi-ethnic society with high trust, we are also seeing the rise of authoritarian ideology. So....how does that square?

You are misunderstanding the meaning of "trust" here. The trust Kunal talked about, is between consumer and buyer, people and the government, etc. He is not talking about trust between people on the same social level but, the opposite. By this definition, US is definitely a low trust society.

Liked the viseo . good insights, things which i also ponsder about , TRUST for one . But would liek to diasgree on some aspects. IN india say a TATA can come up wiht a new product in unrealted bsuiness bt get tarction . that is bcos, tehre woudl be huge barrier to entry for neew players in india . a TAat or Relaince can levarage existing bsuiness to satrt totally new bsuiness , So you see such new initataives by such large grouos , bcos getting credit and sgtarting new venture is hard in india for new players so existsing players enter other sectos by leveragibng existing capablities . Another point is in asian socienties teh legal system is bad so ihas ot be n tust based , but in western societees had bette legal systse , so different ehtiniciites can work with contarcts . you need to think on tis elines . say in INdia or chian or middl east countries if you violate a conatrct it si very tough to get comepnsated or get justice , but in western countie sit is not teh case , so uu can start business easily
China seems to be an exception here. It is low in diversity therefore should be high in trust. However, we see a concentration of trust in super companies like Alibaba, and Tencent.

@@nihalkalra they don't have the freedom of trust so the innovation dies. In china despite of less diversity, they can't talk about something with other friends and families, because If somehow you say something bad about the government while expressing your new ideas and innovation, the other person will rat you out even if they are family or friend. So people don't trust each others easily despite of same ethnicity.

It's obvious he means "all'' in a general way,you shouldn't always point out the exceptions when something related applies to a large audience. The latter suggests a nitpicking nature that undermines the person's ability to listen in a meaningful way

Justify Amazon valuation by this rational
I disagree with his point on blaming trust on people ethnicity.. A trust is build when a company delivers consistently.. It has nothing to do with people belief system. This is just twisted thought of blaming the brands incompetence of delivering a quality service to people's belief. No one buys Tata salt or Tata car because of Tata's ethnicity.. They buy it for their quality and trust they have in brand. US is one of the most diverse country and they produce the many trusted brand's of the world. Diversity bring's in creativity and out of box thinking.. We should always discourage these regressive thinkings
Gross margin happens when you help people jump the social status...
it's funny how he speaks alot without making any sense at all
This dude has done nothing except create bs startups that lose enormous amounts of money. The way he got rich was by selling his first startup at a bubble valuation (the acquirer took a big write down later on). His current startup is losing tremendous amounts of money without having any business model in place.

Pareto maybe more skewed in India 🇮🇳 because consequences of a crime are much lower in India than in the US. Average bail in the US is much higher. Power law driven monopolies exist in India 🇮🇳 because there is not anti-trust court that has the power to break up Tata and Reliance as opposed to that US. And patents are a complete joke. As opposed to here in the US. This makes it much harder for the smaller startups to reduce reach the scale and beat these monopolies.
