‘I got fired from my job’: Shark Tank India’s Anupam Mittal shares journey of becoming a millionaire
Live MintAnupam Mittal, Shark Tank India judge, founder and chief executive officer of People Group and Shaadi.com, shared his journey of becoming a millionaire at the age of early 20s, in an interview with Himesh Madaan on the YouTube channel ‘Himeesh Madaan’. Mittal has been vocal about his life lessons and journey; he told the podcast host that getting fired was probably the best thing that could happen to him. He owned stock options as an employee, and thanks to the dot com boom of the year 2000, Anupam Mittal became a multi-millionaire. “I had joined as a sales consultant but very quickly I rose through ranks to become the director of strategic partnerships so I had a lot of stock options and had become a multi-millionaire in my early twenties,” said the angel investor in the Barbershop podcast earlier this year.
