Ex-Governor Exposes India’s ₹50,000 Cr Mistake | Money Series Ep 8

India’s urgent crisis: ₹50,000 crore mistake? Raghuram Rajan's blueprint for a great nation


At Mentors for Kids, we believe true financial literacy goes beyond numbers. It's about understanding the forces that shape our world. That's why we're taking you on a journey to the origin of money.
Join our co-founders, CA Pavan Sharma and Journalist Vishal Krishna, as they unravel the hidden truths about money—a story of power, greed, and innovation that defines where we are today. We tackle the five critical areas that determine India's future: Healthcare, Education, Infrastructure, Sustainability, and AI.

In this powerful conversation, you'll discover:
1. The Budget Scandal: Why one single industrial plant is allocated nearly one-third of India's entire higher education budget. Is the government prioritizing metal over minds?
2. The AI Threat: How an AI tool costing just $20 a month makes a fresher's salary unsustainable, and how to gain the creative edge to compete.
3. The Healthcare Gap: Why India, which produces world-class doctors, still leaves less than 5% of its population covered by health insurance.
4. The Level-Up Mandate: Why your job security depends entirely on moving beyond rote learning and becoming a true innovator.

Key learnings for aspiring professionals:
1. Trust is Everything: Learn to critique where capital and resources are actually flowing in the economy.
2.Question Everything: Understand why investment in deep-tech startups and digital connectivity is more critical than just roads and highways.
3. Lead with Innovation: Discover how India can become the world's supplier of skilled professionals to aging nations like Japan and Germany.
4. The Past is Your Blueprint: Get the essential roadmap to make yourself employable in the age of AI.

This is more than history; it's the blueprint for your financial future.
