Man flees home after losing ₹83 lakh in trading, works as Swiggy delivery rider now: ‘Sold land, wife’s jewellery’
An engineer became a full-time trader after his parents sold off their land, pledged jewellery and arranged ₹35 lakh for him. However, things turned upside down, leaving him in a bigger debt.
An engineering graduate lost ₹83 lakh in trading and fled his home, working as a Swiggy delivery rider now, according to a viral Reddit post. The 35-year-old, who claimed to have come from a financially stable family, reportedly lost everything after learning about trading from a client's workplace. Encouraged by initial gains, his parents sold their land, pledged jewellery, and provided ₹35 lakh for trading.
However, the venture backfired, leaving the man in debt. Despite his parents' financial assistance, he ran away from home and began working as a delivery rider. The post received mixed reactions on the platform, with some warning about the dangers of trading without understanding financial markets.
