Everyone who comes to the US or Canada, comes with a reference frame of Uncles and Aunties who moved to the US in late 90s to early 2000s. The cost of living, job opportunities and path to citizenship or even residency is 10X to 20X harder than what it used to be in 90s. People who immigrated back in 90s need to have an honest conversation with relatives planning to immigrate for education and jobs. On the contrary, they sell them a dream that no longer exists.

I am an IIM graduate living in Europe and I closely resonate with what you said, Amish. I have seen the struggle of Indian students here right from finding affordable housing, working multiple jobs to cover their expenses and eventually struggling to find a decent job. The companies take advantage of the students situation and offer them much lower pays than the market average. While the same students paint a rosy picture of their life amongst their juniors and other students who have the dream of studying abroad, their own struggles are hidden. The career counseling agencies in India are quite corrupt as well, making false promises to students and earning huge commissions from colleges for placing students. Thanks for throwing light on this issue, and I hope more people are vocal about their experiences abroad and our youth has all the right information before making their decisions.
Those students are happy being exploited rather than go back even if they cover their money because India has got nothing to offer except pollution, adulterated food, casteism, Hindu-Muslim debates, distorted religion and Sharma ji ka beta is better than you.
This video is SIMPLY a HUGE contribution to students & society. However beautiful somebody else’s Mother looks, you can’t go and sit in Her lap, your Mother is your very own Mother, She will look after you, that Faith is somehow missing. Love & appreciate for one’s own country is an important fact overlooked in our firangi designed education system.
Well explained. But the point is that sadly the Indian govt till to date hasn’t tapped into this . We lack university with kind of courses these universities offer. Many kids get fed up with our reservations quotas !
Even if they have reservations , They were offered a seat in the college they applied to abroad , so they are going.😂 Why will a person who has been treated like a pariah all their lives want to stay?! Pariah here or pariah there kya fark padta hai? Haan agar sarkari kharch par padhayi hui hai tho paisa vapas lelo kaide se. Adhe log ruk Jaenge 😂
I have a German college admit and a German visa, but I currently work as a structural engineer earning 10k/month. This puts me in a dilemma. I couldn’t qualify for GATE to pursue a master's at an IIT, and people around me say that a master's degree from a tier 2 or 3 college in India holds little value. This has left me feeling stuck and unfulfilled. I want to be in a place where my skills are respected. At 24, staying here is pushing me toward depression. It feels like India only caters to the top 90th percentile; the rest, like me, are left struggling. Even though there’s always hope, it’s hard to stay optimistic when hard work doesn’t necessarily lead to a good job or life. This is an excellent video. But maybe going abroad is way to escape the competition here.
My daughter moved to the US , did her MS there, took loan herself, now in a good job at one of the FAANG companies. Repaid her loan within a year. May be all might not have the same oppertunity. True. Youngsters must be careful before opting to study and take job abroad.
What percentage of Indians get jobs at FAANG? not even 10%. He is talking about the rest of 90% who take 100s of thousands of dollars in loan for a 120K job in California.
Sir in today's world whatever your daughter has done can be done by studying in a decent college in India because FAANG companies are investing a lot in India. I personally work in one of those in Bangalore and I enjoy all comforts of being in India. All these companies will come to India and India also will soon have global brands operating out of India because Indian economy is growing and will grow.
However bad the situation is abroad they all know they have a much higher percentage of chance to make it big if they move abroad rather than stay in India. So no matter how many TH-camrs like you give them gyaan about not sending kids abroad this number is going to rise and rise every year !!

You will be treated worse than a dog in abroad. In India there is some dignity to live with. My Canadian Indian origin and I’m thinking of moving out of this country. If you have comfortable life in India, you shouldn’t think of moving to another country at this economic cost.
I am happy about your choice of topic. Coming from Amish Tripathi, it solidifies what i felt intuitively. My experience was the same. I visited Germany and France during my studies. They hardly have any vacancies in the jobs that i was interested in. If i did try to force my way, i would have to choose meaningless jobs. Also, these are contractual jobs. Meaning, searching for a new one after every 2-3 years. However, i always thought that i missed the bus. I always thought that these dream jobs/lives are out there and just out my reach. Thanks for telling the 40 year old me ki "thoda hai, thode ki zaroorat hai".
Excellent videocast and agree completely with Amish's points. Here are some observations based on my life abroad: 1. Life looks good and much better than India for a person in his or her 20s and 30s. Reality strikes when s/he gets married, has kids, and the cost of education for the kids, living with a 30-year mortgage for the home (US), dealing with health of the family, and preparing for a retired life post-60. This slice of reality is particularly painful in the late 50s when the kids have, hopefully, established themselves and the cost of retirement looms in front - inadequate savings, inadequate social security, rising costs of healthcare, and a senior life that seems altogether too dreadful and dangerous to think about. 2. Today, bank loans have opened to doors to mass immigration. But this puts both parents and Indian banks in the dock - either one of them pays the price in due course. The kids are rarely going to assume the costs of the loans and parents will see decreased quality of life because of the decision to fund their kids' education. 3. The rising tide of Indian immigration, especially as students, coincides with a dangerous and looming problem: that of AI or artificial intelligence that will likely slice through all entry level jobs in the near future. Companies, where they can offer the much fewer jobs on offer, will offer them first to citizens that involve less paperwork, legal issues, and cost. Indians and other immigrants will be left out in the cold, without jobs, without visas, and forced to make a harsh decision. My suggestions to the Indian government would be as follows: --- Stop all bank loans for families to fund their kids' education abroad. Focus instead on inexpensive loans for a domestic education. --- Stop inviting the well known Ivy League and other Top Order universities to establish in India. Those who want to go there and can pay for the education themselves can always go there. Instead, the smaller universities, many of them offering very high quality education, could be invited here but with strict caps on tuition fees - perhaps at the same level as Indian private sector universities. --- Indian education, as Amish notes, has to become more employment focused and artisanal - whether in IT, marketing, distribution, retail, manufacturing, etc. For this, India should build more graded programs: certificate (less than six months duration); diploma (less than 2 years), and basic degree (3 years). All programs should have an equally graded and compulsory internship that is offered in partnership with industry bodies, whether in manufacturing, supply chain, IT, financial, healthcare sector, etc.
You were excellent in putting the facts. People think education is spring board for better life rather than ones fire in the belly and skill makes them better than dumb degrees
Most of the students go abroad ,since they dont get opportunities here in india. In india only those who get reservations get job .The general category get nothing ,thats the only reason y all these students go abroad.Good brains are going abroad.its not the parents to be blamed ,its the govt to be blamed. Let all reservations be cancelled ,and jobs given to the deserved.
In many instance it is the hourly rate of payment for menial jobs in these countries become an attractive proposition for many more the mangy courses they pay to get! It is a sad reflection in their mindset!
Things are very hard to get new job these days in usa .. i can only imagine how hard it must be for first timers .. lot of fake resumes even to get very first job
That’s very true,medical facilities in Canada and UK ,government hospitals are very tough,you have fever today and they will give you only Crocin type of a tablet.and you will get doctors appointments after 2-3 weeks for any tests to be done.otherwise go to private hospitals and their charges are exorbitant
Why not mention the elephant in the room? That lakhs of our youngsters see no other route to a "better" life than to try to getting into a preferably Western country at any cost! No matter what horror stories you tell, this trend will continue till this feeling of hopelessness in our youth sustains. And it is not just our youth. Whole families are risking everything to get out. And sometimes freezing to death in the process.
You are doing gods work sir. Everyone should watch this video especially ones who thinks life is better on other side. Go abroad only to work if you manage to find one, if not please don’t sell your assets and take more loans for studying abroad. Instead start a business or invest that money. I’m Canadian Indian origin myself and I’m tired of telling people the fact international students pays 3times more for studies than locals given the fact how horrible current job market is. Been living in Canada for 14 years and I’m already planning to move out from here.
The moment dollar loses its reserve currency status the western economies will crumble. The non stop printing of dollars by the Fed is what is sustaining the economy. Jobs will get reduced by huge margin and Indian students won't be given priority for the remaining ones.
Amish, really find your podcasts informative. How do we get more University seats in India and degree apprenticeships there? The young population can only succeed if there are opportunities in India itself for a larger proportion of the young graduates and apprenticeships. India needs a strategy for Higher Education and youth employment?
In India opportunities are more bt salary is less. And working hrs are shit. I was earning 1.5 lac per month bt left India cuz I can't work more than 10+ hrs everyday
True life reality of the current education system abroad. Vocational training in India's corporate sector is a must. Giving back to industry what industries have given them. I was a trainee for 3 years apprenticeship in NCTVT in the year 73 to 76.....long time ago and i did well for myself. Vocational skill is the future for our vast population.
One positive thing is, if you have extra stay permit, you can actually pay loans and return home with some good chunk of cash... in a few years! But you should be very calculated and careful.
If you choose good university, studying abroad and finding job abroad is far more rewarding than in India. Do not go to councelors. Apply on your own to good universities.
the whole education system even in india is western based...was looking at one of late rajiv dixits videos...he was a engeenering degree holder which he did in india in english ....he said ..he did like xsquare+ysquare=zsquare....ooskaa faadee kyaa haaa,.....it means whats its use in my life....then he said he did all in english....oossskaa fadaa muje kyaa hayee...it means no use to me...he said he wasted half his life in this western based education system all in english...and im never even going to canada ,usa europe..etc
They are not necessarily studying abroad. They are trying to escape Indian bureaucracy. Have you ever tried any thing as simple as renewing passport. After 20 years abroad renewing passport asks affidavits, a letter from local council, police verification and bribe to policeman and what not. If I am away more than 2 decades with no relatives or no permanent address how am I supposed to do it. I am already out of country what does police verification do then. You idiots don’t understand a single thing and do all the bakwas thinking world runs according to your lofty never improving bullcrap. Then try the banking and any other bureaucratic thing
Cost of education in india is also not affordable nowadays.. many students are taking loans to meetup with their education and they are earning like 20k on an average per month and can't repay the loan.. day by day the price for everything is rising and 90 percent of people are under 20 k salary category.. what are you trying to prove? Indian students can't even earn or study in india itself
if are snart enought to get a job in USA... you can for sure earn 1 lakhs... if you think you cant earn 1 lakhs in India... you cant get job in USA market
First of all, one should understand that Indian students are not running away bcz they are fascinated by west. They are running bcz post degree, there is no job here in india. From Last 20 yrs, freshers salary is still Rs 3L. The universities have outdated syllabus in india, the student loan money is completely wasted in india. if one is not getting relevant jobs in west, are they getting that relevant jobs in India ......no not at all? All are pushed into hard core sales, literally made salesman in india whether he is Engg. MBA, humanities, every one is seen salesman in India. U forget making single penny while studying in india. I have niece in Europe earning very good money as part time job that too in MNC during studies. Can u even think of in dreams in India. Forget about it. The struggles are everywhere, one has to be smart enough to pursue and crack one for himself whether in india or abroad. Indian companies work culture is unbearable, rotten culture. e.g CA died recently. Leave India and pursue your dream outside. Mother India is no longer mother any more. U got to leave and take risk. U have no choice. Do not wait for india to become vishwaguru. U have hardly 30 yrs to earn. Any miscalculation will ruin your limited time to earn. Apni akal lagao ..bolne pe mat jao..
The rate at which change is happening in Indian govt esp, it'll be next few generations that will reap the benefits. Too much red-tape, corruption and govt telling people what, how, when, where they are allowed to do or not do anything. Maaibaap Sarkaar Syndrome (MSS).
Very true reflection on craze of Indian parents and students for foriegn education. One real situation is Indian students are disillutioned with reservations system in highier professional universities and in Govt service Imagine a situation meritorius( general) student has to work with a class mate who is just able pass, up to this point it is ok. But later on due to reservations in promotions his class mate with reservation will be promoted to highier post and the general candidate has to work under him as general will not get promotion due to reservation. This is humiliating to general person. That's why students are flocking to foriegn lands for highier education and jobs.
You have to share information about good educational facilities in India so that people stop thinking about living abroad instead of bad thing about UK & Europe n other foreign countries. People really doesn’t want live in India n this truth never change the fact that India people now want their child better education better future which India fail due to their corruption habit n people love their life abroad not in India n due to this corruption habit in India some are really live hard life to away from parent brother sister niece children’s n everyone which they never want to stay away. Instead of share bad information about foreign education share good educational quality in India
Caveat emptor. But he doesn't mention one plus. In the event of a foreign crisis or emergency, our country mounts rescue missions at taxpayer cost to bring these students back at no cost or risk to them.
I suspect it's "vishaguru" banne ki khujli. We are DESPERATELY trying to portray an image of "the caring one".....to get brownie points. That's just my 2 cents.
💥The shutting down of the British Classroom format begins from the West. - was important for the acknowledgment to come from Britain which converted unorganised slavery into a sophisticated slavery, sponsored by the parents themselves, of human trafficking from classrooms to jobs to divert profits to Christian conversion & reduce rich nations like Bharat into a Naukaro wala desh. British Classroom system was imposed World over to FEMINIZE men with memory-tests, into giving up enterprising & thoughts of independence. The 400-year cycle of single country RC which began with Pound closes with the beginning of the dilution of the Services sector & the English language. Bharat will rise!
Regarding healthcare, I always listen about the issues with NHS, and super expensive American health care. Then, how cum we are always ranked below in many health aspects? Though personally I like Indian health care and turned down opportunities to move to mid high income country (GDP ~$20K/capita) due to distance and language issues. Besides, I too was earlier keen on moving to these countries but my enthusiasm died down over time as I learned more and more about the cons through my friends.
Two things which we love of west is . Personal space and time . And sense of entrepreneurship even if one doesn’t have job they take role of car cleaner, vendor, etc
The last point about our historic Gurukul though profound, cannot be implemented in our Nation today. Due to business men running our education system, we are just another profit or loss to them that's it.
This video needs more deeper research. More generic rant. No depth. I have seen students becoming independent after moving abroad. Your video is miss guiding. There could be some truth in few things you mentioned but generalising does not do justice. Do more research before misguiding.
Indian Parents have enough money, total household gold reserves of Indian stands at 25000 tons which will add 2 trillion to our existing gdp numbers, selling land etc are just stories mostly, society is a vanity ladder , I have seen people putting Er, Dr, CA prefix on their marriage card, student just try from worse to bad situations, High education should only be allowed if people have real appetite for learning,white collar economy of past centuries from west is crumbling with automation and jobs moving to east Europe/India cheap labour destination. Only folks who will accept their strength and situation will do something in life , delusional folks are bound to be disappointed.
Western IT sector wondering now. Will soon realise that the last 50 years high payments had got nothing to do with their intelligence 😂 They were most near to the dollar endless printing machine churning out currency out of thin air.
Such titles and thumbnails will always have an audience, but they won't change anything for the next couple of years when migrating to the developed world for higher education. At the age of 33, I left my career as a radiologist and took my USMLE exams and migrated to USA at the age of 36 - mine was mostly cultural migration - I am an athiest, free thinker (what would I do there?) - and my path to Citizenship was not easy - but even when I had no oppotuities and go back - I stil felt the journey is totally worth it (money time I spent) - once I started understanding why west is like that - bottom line- Move if you have open mindedness. Money and opportunities part - you may get bored soon and you have enough opportunities in growing India too.
Seek out skills outside of college. College is for minimum certificate with outdated syllabus. Do private applied skill based courses outside the college.
There are no guarantees in life. This is what Indians should realize. In those days people got government jobs and hence that take it easy nature. Belief that getting marks will get them great jobs. Our netas of those days are responsible for discouraging private enterprise. Lost 3 generations of private enterprise with huge public sectors
💥It has to be Gurus led Education & not business led Education - The Education Department was invented by the British for colonisation & conversion purpose in order to not let natives rebuild the destroyed Gurukul campuses & the Mandir Ecosystem. Even if we go by current context, handing over 20 years from a human life to a regulated classroom format within 4 walls away from market, needs to be seriously revisited in the coming years. We need to cut down the excessive role of the first two from the below four by applying Tech - Govt. - Education owners - Gurus - Students The Real Gurus & students will find each other out. Nobody needs to come in between to waste 20 years of human life.
Dear Amish, submission - a big fan of your writing and podcast now. Net net India is short of 13 lac quality university seats. Unless that is sorted, I do not see much hope in near term.
Sir, Great assessment, but solutions are mediocre. We need a bigger overhaul in everything and every sector. Manufacturing and self reliance should be the bullseye that we need to shoot for. Designing everything around 100% self-reliance with Dharmic values and ultra cutting edge technology would solve most unemployment. No more than 35% of any country should live in city. It’s a scam. Only most needed and educated one should move to cities.

They hardly have any vacancies in the jobs that i was interested in. If i did try to force my way, i would have to choose meaningless jobs. Also, these are contractual jobs. Meaning, searching for a new one after every 2-3 years. However, i always thought that i missed the bus. I always thought that these dream jobs/lives are out there and just out my reach. Thanks for telling the 40 year old me ki "thoda hai, thode ki zaroorat hai".
Many are trapped in the Stockholm syndrome. Chasing the pot of gold, which few find.
Agree with all what you have said. Been in the US for over 30yrs and all the new Indian students are having a hard time after coming here.
Thank you for such a detailed explanation. It reflects my thoughts as well for my son growing up.

Excellent videocast and agree completely with Amish's points. Here are some observations based on my life abroad:
1. Life looks good and much better than India for a person in his or her 20s and 30s. Reality strikes when s/he gets married, has kids, and the cost of education for the kids, living with a 30-year mortgage for the home (US), dealing with health of the family, and preparing for a retired life post-60. This slice of reality is particularly painful in the late 50s when the kids have, hopefully, established themselves and the cost of retirement looms in front - inadequate savings, inadequate social security, rising costs of healthcare, and a senior life that seems altogether too dreadful and dangerous to think about.
2. Today, bank loans have opened to doors to mass immigration. But this puts both parents and Indian banks in the dock - either one of them pays the price in due course. The kids are rarely going to assume the costs of the loans and parents will see decreased quality of life because of the decision to fund their kids' education.
3. The rising tide of Indian immigration, especially as students, coincides with a dangerous and looming problem: that of AI or artificial intelligence that will likely slice through all entry level jobs in the near future. Companies, where they can offer the much fewer jobs on offer, will offer them first to citizens that involve less paperwork, legal issues, and cost. Indians and other immigrants will be left out in the cold, without jobs, without visas, and forced to make a harsh decision.
My suggestions to the Indian government would be as follows:
--- Stop all bank loans for families to fund their kids' education abroad. Focus instead on inexpensive loans for a domestic education.
--- Stop inviting the well known Ivy League and other Top Order universities to establish in India. Those who want to go there and can pay for the education themselves can always go there. Instead, the smaller universities, many of them offering very high quality education, could be invited here but with strict caps on tuition fees - perhaps at the same level as Indian private sector universities.
--- Indian education, as Amish notes, has to become more employment focused and artisanal - whether in IT, marketing, distribution, retail, manufacturing, etc. For this, India should build more graded programs: certificate (less than six months duration); diploma (less than 2 years), and basic degree (3 years). All programs should have an equally graded and compulsory internship that is offered in partnership with industry bodies, whether in manufacturing, supply chain, IT, financial, healthcare sector, etc.
Thank you for this video, such an important message, I hope it reaches deep across India
You were excellent in putting the facts. People think education is spring board for better life rather than ones fire in the belly and skill makes them better than dumb degrees
Most of the students go abroad ,since they dont get opportunities here in india. In india only those who get reservations get job .The general category get nothing ,thats the only reason y all these students go abroad.Good brains are going abroad.its not the parents to be blamed ,its the govt to be blamed. Let all reservations be cancelled ,and jobs given to the deserved.
In many instance it is the hourly rate of payment for menial jobs in these countries become an attractive proposition for many more the mangy courses they pay to get! It is a sad reflection in their mindset!
Very knowledgeable. Thanks for this valuable information.
Very pragmatic and sensible analysis
Things are very hard to get new job these days in usa .. i can only imagine how hard it must be for first timers .. lot of fake resumes even to get very first job
That’s very true,medical facilities in Canada and UK ,government hospitals are very tough,you have fever today and they will give you only Crocin type of a tablet.and you will get doctors appointments after 2-3 weeks for any tests to be done.otherwise go to private hospitals and their charges are exorbitant
Hence, please 🙏 don't come.
Why not mention the elephant in the room? That lakhs of our youngsters see no other route to a "better" life than to try to getting into a preferably Western country at any cost! No matter what horror stories you tell, this trend will continue till this feeling of hopelessness in our youth sustains. And it is not just our youth. Whole families are risking everything to get out. And sometimes freezing to death in the process.
You are doing gods work sir. Everyone should watch this video especially ones who thinks life is better on other side. Go abroad only to work if you manage to find one, if not please don’t sell your assets and take more loans for studying abroad. Instead start a business or invest that money. I’m Canadian Indian origin myself and I’m tired of telling people the fact international students pays 3times more for studies than locals given the fact how horrible current job market is. Been living in Canada for 14 years and I’m already planning to move out from here.
The moment dollar loses its reserve currency status the western economies will crumble. The non stop printing of dollars by the Fed is what is sustaining the economy. Jobs will get reduced by huge margin and Indian students won't be given priority for the remaining ones.
We should work to improve life in our country and then go abroad only for vacations.

Amish, really find your podcasts informative. How do we get more University seats in India and degree apprenticeships there? The young population can only succeed if there are opportunities in India itself for a larger proportion of the young graduates and apprenticeships. India needs a strategy for Higher Education and youth employment?
In India opportunities are more bt salary is less. And working hrs are shit. I was earning 1.5 lac per month bt left India cuz I can't work more than 10+ hrs everyday
High quality condoms and population control is one option. And taxing higher for having children is not bad either

True life reality of the current education system abroad.
Vocational training in India's corporate sector is a must.
Giving back to industry what industries have given them.
I was a trainee for 3 years apprenticeship in NCTVT in the year 73 to 76.....long time ago and i did well for myself.
Vocational skill is the future for our vast population.
Agreed 👍

How to rotate same money to many businesses hotels school and hospitals and entertainment housing
What about politicians son who study in IV league university why know one talk about it ? Why only middle class ? Why?
Okay. Just send your OWN kids to government schools and universities which is not in top 20
Nicely explained and vision opening
All points mentioned is same here and valid for India - loan on education and not good paying job with politics in university
Thank you for the good work Amish.
One positive thing is, if you have extra stay permit, you can actually pay loans and return home with some good chunk of cash... in a few years! But you should be very calculated and careful.
Thankyou very much for the video
If you choose good university, studying abroad and finding job abroad is far more rewarding than in India. Do not go to councelors. Apply on your own to good universities.
the whole education system even in india is western based...was looking at one of late rajiv dixits videos...he was a engeenering degree holder which he did in india in english ....he said ..he did like xsquare+ysquare=zsquare....ooskaa faadee kyaa haaa,.....it means whats its use in my life....then he said he did all in english....oossskaa fadaa muje kyaa hayee...it means no use to me...he said he wasted half his life in this western based education system all in english...and im never even going to canada ,usa europe..etc
Very well thorough research. Appreciate that..
They are not necessarily studying abroad. They are trying to escape Indian bureaucracy. Have you ever tried any thing as simple as renewing passport. After 20 years abroad renewing passport asks affidavits, a letter from local council, police verification and bribe to policeman and what not. If I am away more than 2 decades with no relatives or no permanent address how am I supposed to do it. I am already out of country what does police verification do then. You idiots don’t understand a single thing and do all the bakwas thinking world runs according to your lofty never improving bullcrap. Then try the banking and any other bureaucratic thing
@@Anqhgjfhcvuywzxqu 😭sir you are 💯 right 🙏
This video should be shared more
Cost of education in india is also not affordable nowadays.. many students are taking loans to meetup with their education and they are earning like 20k on an average per month and can't repay the loan.. day by day the price for everything is rising and 90 percent of people are under 20 k salary category.. what are you trying to prove? Indian students can't even earn or study in india itself
if are snart enought to get a job in USA... you can for sure earn 1 lakhs... if you think you cant earn 1 lakhs in India... you cant get job in USA market
Wow osum
Very informative! :)
10 years ago it was education which lured kids , now it’s just the social media telling that them some other side which does not exists for everyone.
First of all, one should understand that Indian students are not running away bcz they are fascinated by west. They are running bcz post degree, there is no job here in india. From Last 20 yrs, freshers salary is still Rs 3L. The universities have outdated syllabus in india, the student loan money is completely wasted in india. if one is not getting relevant jobs in west, are they getting that relevant jobs in India ......no not at all? All are pushed into hard core sales, literally made salesman in india whether he is Engg. MBA, humanities, every one is seen salesman in India. U forget making single penny while studying in india. I have niece in Europe earning very good money as part time job that too in MNC during studies. Can u even think of in dreams in India. Forget about it. The struggles are everywhere, one has to be smart enough to pursue and crack one for himself whether in india or abroad. Indian companies work culture is unbearable, rotten culture. e.g CA died recently. Leave India and pursue your dream outside. Mother India is no longer mother any more. U got to leave and take risk. U have no choice. Do not wait for india to become vishwaguru. U have hardly 30 yrs to earn. Any miscalculation will ruin your limited time to earn. Apni akal lagao ..bolne pe mat jao..
The rate at which change is happening in Indian govt esp, it'll be next few generations that will reap the benefits.
Too much red-tape, corruption and govt telling people what, how, when, where they are allowed to do or not do anything.
Maaibaap Sarkaar Syndrome (MSS).
Very true reflection on craze of Indian parents and students for foriegn education. One real situation is Indian students are disillutioned with reservations system in highier professional universities and in Govt service Imagine a situation meritorius( general) student has to work with a class mate who is just able pass, up to this point it is ok. But later on due to reservations in promotions his class mate with reservation will be promoted to highier post and the general candidate has to work under him as general will not get promotion due to reservation. This is humiliating to general person. That's why students are flocking to foriegn lands for highier education and jobs.
Excellent analysis 👏
Solution? Where is the solution for Indian students facing unemployment? Everyone is talking about the problem but not solutions.
Very nice video
Very insightful video.
You have to share information about good educational facilities in India so that people stop thinking about living abroad instead of bad thing about UK & Europe n other foreign countries. People really doesn’t want live in India n this truth never change the fact that India people now want their child better education better future which India fail due to their corruption habit n people love their life abroad not in India n due to this corruption habit in India some are really live hard life to away from parent brother sister niece children’s n everyone which they never want to stay away. Instead of share bad information about foreign education share good educational quality in India
Kehena kaya chahate hain aap? Konsa Indian private university bina education loan pe affordable hai?
Even in government funded colleges & universities fee are hopping
Collages of IP University free seats were quite affordable. Though not sure what is the fees now.
@@Pirtaed education costs
are spiralling ...,😔my niece s fees grosses up to 90k in a 3 tier town per year....and she is in 1st standard 😭
When will second episode of Bhagvad Gita podcast come?
Also , new book?

Amish you’re an excellent writer. Out of curiosity I was wondering, what triggered you to start on the TH-cam journey ?
My son went last year, already dissolutioned, it doesn't work for everyone
Another truth is that you ignore the truth
Caveat emptor.
But he doesn't mention one plus. In the event of a foreign crisis or emergency, our country mounts rescue missions at taxpayer cost to bring these students back at no cost or risk to them.
I suspect it's "vishaguru" banne ki khujli.
We are DESPERATELY trying to portray an image of "the caring one".....to get brownie points.
That's just my 2 cents.
💥The shutting down of the British Classroom format begins from the West.
- was important for the acknowledgment to come from Britain which converted unorganised slavery into a sophisticated slavery, sponsored by the parents themselves, of human trafficking from classrooms to jobs to divert profits to Christian conversion & reduce rich nations like Bharat into a Naukaro wala desh.
British Classroom system was imposed World over to FEMINIZE men with memory-tests, into giving up enterprising & thoughts of independence.
The 400-year cycle of single country RC which began with Pound closes with the beginning of the dilution of the Services sector & the English language.
Bharat will rise!
So you think India is best? Boomer uncle! 😂😂😂
Chosing country, university , course is the key to get good job post degree.

Regarding healthcare, I always listen about the issues with NHS, and super expensive American health care. Then, how cum we are always ranked below in many health aspects?
Though personally I like Indian health care and turned down opportunities to move to mid high income country (GDP ~$20K/capita) due to distance and language issues. Besides, I too was earlier keen on moving to these countries but my enthusiasm died down over time as I learned more and more about the cons through my friends.
Nice video bhai 🎉🎉❤❤
I wish Ponnaganti SitaRam, Ponnaganti Pusha, Ponnaganti HarshaSree would watch the vedio. 🧎♂️
Good info
IM TOO LAZY TO OUTSIDE
More affirmative action,more migration.Keep giving gyaan
Two things which we love of west is
.
Personal space and time
.
And sense of entrepreneurship even if one doesn’t have job they take role of car cleaner, vendor, etc
This is happening in India to if we live in flats
Now nobody care about anyone in India too
People who are crying here , if given opportunity will right away move to developed country
The last point about our historic Gurukul though profound, cannot be implemented in our Nation today. Due to business men running our education system, we are just another profit or loss to them that's it.
Its politicians running education system and private schools
How does indian society provide a good job prospects?
16:53 only STEM courses should be allowed for foreign universities not humanities garbage
Is Hindi version of this episode coming?
More Gurukuls can definitely help
This video needs more deeper research. More generic rant. No depth. I have seen students becoming independent after moving abroad. Your video is miss guiding. There could be some truth in few things you mentioned but generalising does not do justice. Do more research before misguiding.
Indian Parents have enough money, total household gold reserves of Indian stands at 25000 tons which will add 2 trillion to our existing gdp numbers, selling land etc are just stories mostly, society is a vanity ladder , I have seen people putting Er, Dr, CA prefix on their marriage card, student just try from worse to bad situations, High education should only be allowed if people have real appetite for learning,white collar economy of past centuries from west is crumbling with automation and jobs moving to east Europe/India cheap labour destination. Only folks who will accept their strength and situation will do something in life , delusional folks are bound to be disappointed.
Lol most go by taking loan. I also did same
Loan is only given to those who can prove via an asset that they can return
@@nirjharrajawat2222 nowdays anyone can get a loan upto 50 lacs.
Amish more than 70% of IITs and IIMs vacate india after education. As long as the west prints money they can continue to buy these students out right.
Western IT sector wondering now.
Will soon realise that the last 50 years high payments had got nothing to do with their intelligence 😂
They were most near to the dollar endless printing machine churning out currency out of thin air.
Such titles and thumbnails will always have an audience, but they won't change anything for the next couple of years when migrating to the developed world for higher education. At the age of 33, I left my career as a radiologist and took my USMLE exams and migrated to USA at the age of 36 - mine was mostly cultural migration - I am an athiest, free thinker (what would I do there?) - and my path to Citizenship was not easy - but even when I had no oppotuities and go back - I stil felt the journey is totally worth it (money time I spent) - once I started understanding why west is like that - bottom line- Move if you have open mindedness. Money and opportunities part - you may get bored soon and you have enough opportunities in growing India too.
Seek out skills outside of college. College is for minimum certificate with outdated syllabus. Do private applied skill based courses outside the college.
There are no guarantees in life. This is what Indians should realize. In those days people got government jobs and hence that take it easy nature. Belief that getting marks will get them great jobs. Our netas of those days are responsible for discouraging private enterprise. Lost 3 generations of private enterprise with huge public sectors
Very nice eye opener video
Some of it is cultural migration - which you may not probably understand Amish - the way I know some of your talks.
100 % true and please do not come for studies with loans and suffer in the west.😢😢😢
🔥🔥🔥
💥It has to be Gurus led Education & not business led Education -
The Education Department was invented by the British for colonisation & conversion purpose in order to not let natives rebuild the destroyed Gurukul campuses & the Mandir Ecosystem.
Even if we go by current context, handing over 20 years from a human life to a regulated classroom format within 4 walls away from market, needs to be seriously revisited in the coming years.
We need to cut down the excessive role of the first two from the below four by applying Tech -
Govt. - Education owners - Gurus - Students
The Real Gurus & students will find each other out. Nobody needs to come in between to waste 20 years of human life.
Foreign university student exchange programs are a better idea.
Dear Amish, submission - a big fan of your writing and podcast now. Net net India is short of 13 lac quality university seats. Unless that is sorted, I do not see much hope in near term.
Sir, Great assessment, but solutions are mediocre. We need a bigger overhaul in everything and every sector. Manufacturing and self reliance should be the bullseye that we need to shoot for. Designing everything around 100% self-reliance with Dharmic values and ultra cutting edge technology would solve most unemployment. No more than 35% of any country should live in city. It’s a scam. Only most needed and educated one should move to cities.
