Book note on Ashneer Grover’s Doglapan, 3 min read

Doglapan, and why a salary will never make you rich

Ashneer Grover’s book is loud, blunt and very Indian about ambition. These are the lessons I wrote down by hand while reading it: on hunger, envy, delegation, investors and the only boss who matters.

The book in 60 seconds

  • Ambition starts with bhookh. The more comfortable you get, the less you want.
  • A job can only help you keep up with inflation. To really live it up, you give up the regular salary.
  • Healthy envy is fuel. Spend time with people doing better than you and let it sting.
