Zerodha’s viral social media post strikes a deep chord, ’If the realisation hasn’t hit you...’

Live Mint  

Zerodha, a popular brokerage firm, has struck a deep chord with its latest social media post, which will most certainly invoke a feeling of nostalgia and compel people to introspect how life has changed. Achieving work-life balance is like walking a tightrope, and Zerodha's post underscored a striking reality— people don't give enough time to family and friends. One user noted, “Great comparison,” while another joked, “Bold of them to assume I got a partner at 18-20.” Others shared heartfelt reflections, with one person commenting, “This is just what I needed to see today! Thanks!” Another called it a “sad state of affair,” and yet another added, “This is sad on so many levels.” "There is so much precedent for 4 day work weeks, in socialist- leaning Nordic or Scandinavian countries to show that this form of ecosystem does not work as well as capitalism," Kamath said while speaking at CNBC TV18's India Business Leaders Awards 2023 earlier this year.
