1.  The best advice to a single guy in his 20s?

   1.Career is not UPSC, IIT, IIM, AIIMS, aim for your passion instead.

1. Expenditure bifurcation = basic needs + savings + temptations + EMI's (in the same sequence)
2. Life partner = looks + good heart + compatibility + trust (equal weightage)
3. Success is subjective, it’s value changes with time, aim for progress.
4. Growth oriented job with a low salary should be preferred over a Dead end job with a good salary.
5. There are only two options in life, make efforts today or make efforts for the remaining 50-60 years.
6. Work to “complete” and not “finish”
7. Do business only if you can handle miserability.
8. Easiest thing to break in the world is “trust”, trust wisely.
9. Never become a “puppet” for anyone, you would be thrown away after just one flop show.
10. Friends can hurt you really bad, select friends wisely & nurture your relationship with them.
11. Sometimes saying “no" takes you ahead in life over blindly approving every request.
12. Don't follow others, they may be running on a beautiful path leading to a dead end.
13. If you are doing hardwork and not succeeding you are stupid, if you use your mind, sit all day, make others do your work and succeed, you are smart.
14. Sexy car = Down payment+ EMI's+ Fuel+ Service+ Insurance.
15. Marriage = love + admiration + understanding + compromises + fights, mutual decision making + sharing + caring. (Marriage is not a license to have sex, be prepared in advance)
16. Studies are not the only thing which will take you ahead, skill set & mind set are equally important things.
17. Discuss all your problems with parents or close friends, you will definitely find a solution. (1000 times better then hanging on a ceiling fan)
18. Over drinking is not cool as is a Liver failure.
19. Stress = depression, infertility, diabetes, hypertension, insomnia, tiredness, sexual disorders (Take tensions but don't make a tree out of a seed)
20. Rash driving & over drinking = court case, death, jail, amputation, regret, road rage.
21. Internet has the power to either “destroy your life” or “act as a fuel", use it wisely!
22. Take good care of your body because health was and will always be above wealth.
23. “Assets” are for 30's, “efforts” are for 20's.
24. Life is not a “joke” but don’t take it too “seriously" either.
