“I am satisfied. I have lived through the ashrams of the life of a Hindu, based on a life of 100 years. The first 25 years are recommended to be spent in the pursuit of education, skills, and development of talents. The next 25 years are optionally for a family life—to earn and save money in a way that doesn't hurt others. The third 25 years are to give back to society. This is where I am currently in life, after completing a bachelor’s degree in India and three master’s degrees in the USA, and working for 30 years in high-tech firms across the USA, the last 17 in the Silicon Valley.”
