The Art and Science of Real Wealth

I have been in the field of investing ever since I was a young teen during the mania of the early 1990s. I have had huge successes and even bigger failures and even bigger success again after that. I made enough money before I was 30 (2004), that ordinary people would not have made in a lifetime. But my short-term emotional thinking, arrogance, and greed in investing, and ignoring and mocking the principles of capital allocation and risk management blew away all those earnings. The world's greatest investors were successful only because of logic, reason, patience, and discipline. I thought I should share my life's learning over the last 31 years in the art and science of investing. I hope it prevents others from making the mistakes I made until 2018, and straightaway skip all my mistakes and go on to the success I am having since 2019. Over the last 5 years from FY 20-21, as you can see from the cover image taken from my website www.artofrealwealth.com, I have achieved an XIRR of 83% as of August 9, 2024 from FY 20-21. The purpose of this publication is to enable you to manage money wisely and earn a consistent regular income. This publication will enable you to achieve financial freedom. But this publication has a higher purpose. To get you to read my book Arya Dharma: The Noble Dharma and blog www.aryadharma.world. The purpose of wealth is to give you the freedom to pursue your higher passions and more importantly discover the joys of SEVA (selfless service) by helping the most needy and unfortunate beings in this world by giving them true love and the ability to chase their dreams, not yours.

The highest goal of the Arthasastra is SEVA (selfless sacrifice) to the old - the highest ideal of Dharma.

The root of happiness and wellbeing is Dharma.

The root of Dharma is Artha (economy and statecraft leading to wealth)

The root of Artha is good governance.

The root of good governance is conquering by self-control.

The root of conquering by self-control is humility.

The root of humility is SEVA (selfless service) to the old.
