Disclaimer - I don't *want* Shark Tank India to fail. The world is more fun if it wins...
But wanting something doesn't mean it's going to happen. If it did, then every bag of chips would have more chips and less air.

People like your channel. No, no - they LOVE your channel.
But there is a problem. You are not in the top 10 GE channels in India.
Despite having shows like KBC, Kapil Sharma, Indian Idol…
Shit.

The kit, known as #DVECK, enhances the features of a bicycle or rickshaw by giving it a speed of 25 kph, a weight capacity of 170 kilograms, and a range of 40 kilometres per charge.

You might develop new stereotypes after watching that episode that people with disabilities are strong, opinionated, full of confidence, and with hard work, they can triumph over all adversities.
This story is about celebrating inclusion in a very true sense, says #VineetSaraiwala, who runs #AtypicalAdvantage -- which claims to be India’s largest #inclusive #employment platform for people with disabilities across India.
Mar 2019, #BYJUS showcased investors that in FY21, Revenue shall be 5609 Cr and profit be 549 Cr and justified its Val at 16364 Cr
Done Revenue of only 2800 Cr and loss of 4500 Cr in FY21 but now at Valuation of 1,75,606 Cr
Startup Valuation is biggest MLM scam of this century!

Every #MLM needs an innovative Product.
So here comes an "An Idea + flamboyant Founders who can Pitch + a legal entity" packaged as a Product wherein an existing investor is expected to recruit new investors at higher valuation.

The Investors are more to be blamed for this #MLM
New Age Investors are happy when their money is burnt with no resulting revenue growth because if there is enough revenue; to fund the expense means no need of follow-round

Shark Tank made Mark Cuban one of the US's darling billionaires. So, it may come as a jolt to many of you that he has not made any profit from investments made on the popular show. Cuban has invested over $20mn in various companies showcased in the "Tank."

newsbytesapp.com/news/business/…
#SharkTank showed us venture capitalism can be entertaining. Well, if Cuban's words are anything to go by, entertainment and investment are not the best combinations. His words are a testament to what many people always believed: the Tank is more theater than business.
Cuban's shocking revelation came during last week's Full Send Podcast. "Are you up all time on 'Shark Tank' investments?" the host asked Cuban. To this, the billionaire replied, "Like, up financially?"

Well hello there, Oh, My name? I’m Jaws…Indiana Jaws. My parents wanted to call me Henry. Do I look like a Henry to you? Anywho, I’m just your average…Ok, I can’t even say it with a straight face. I mean, c’mon. I am anything but average. Just look at me!
Those tiger stripes, alone make me a standout handsome shark. Rumor has it that my real father was a redheaded Merman.
These days, I spend my time exploring sunken ruins, seeking out the lost treasures from bygone civilizations...oh, and great coffee shops.

Just to give an example of my #Dyslexia:
I'm NOT giong to edit it.
Here are tough words: rememnber, memeber, strenght, Natahan (the name) straighth, etc.
This is how I just typed them, my brain doesn't feel the reversal.
For everything I type, I often go back and correct it.

It is really weird when I type.
My brain literally stops as if there is a short circuit of sorts when I'm typing a difficult word.
I completely forget where I am in the word & I have to sound things out.
And yes, I went back and corrected a few words in this tweet. #Dyslexia

Just finished up both #sharktank-themed @geekwire Numbers Geek podcasts. They were pretty amazing – particularly as I listened to the customer-focus/KPIs talk of the companies. It just hit home - and not always in a warm-and-fuzzy way. @ABCSharkTank
@geekwire @ABCSharkTank First, @JamieSiminoff: “I think when you focus on your customer … and I mean crazy focus on your customer, success comes from delivering benefit to your customer.” geekwire.com/2019/shark-tan…
