He revealed that he has a good premium car, has taken a few foreign trips, has a good corpus of Rs 2 crore, and is now collecting a good amount to buy a bungalow. However, in the comments section, when one user asked if he's happy, the original poster (OP) shared an emotional response, saying, "not very." In his post, the 28-year-old wrote about his journey. "I come from lower middle class.. after 12 I started doing CA that too from scholarship. I'm very curious and keep researching everything what's the latest trend. Started a startup in 2017 invested 1 lakh .. completely failed. In 2020 during Covid peak I was in my CA final .. my exam got postponed and i started a online service based Business.. without a single Rupee investment just by instagram marketing i started earning 1-2 lakhs per month. ( as people started using instagram increased during Covid as we all know)," the OP shared.
