Paul Mampilly’s Acts of Community Service Shock a lot of Investors.
Paul Mampilly is one of the few investors who has risen from rags to riches through a combination of effort and luck. The aspect of luck comes in the mode which he managed to be brought up in India and later come to be a prominent investment manager in the United States, and more so at the Wall Street. His journey can only be described as full of luck and one that was determined by fate. When Mampilly was young, he lived in a very small village in the rural areas of eastern India. He had a younger sister who he loved very much. However, their father had undergone a long struggle trying to find a formal job but all that had been in vain. The family of Mampilly had to endure some financial challenges, but their father always gave them hope and encouraged them to take their studies seriously so that in the future they could come to the rescue of the family.
However, it came to a point when Paul Mampilly completed his elementary studies and needed funds to join college. This was a challenge to his father because the casual job that he had been doing could not provide enough to cater for the family needs. The academic future of Mampilly and his sister began to be threatened. However, the two were still hopeful that their father could find a solution and pay for their education. He kept trying all the means possible to make ends meet, but all his efforts turned futile. However, the family remained hopeful because they saw the effort of their father and believed that they could make it at one moment.
One morning, Mampilly’s father got the information about the existence of oil mine jobs in Dubai. Without wasting any chance, he took all his family and relocated to the beautiful country of Dubai. To their surprise, the economic conditions there were a bit favorable. His father got a job in one of the oil mines, and within a few months, he had managed to raise money for his children’s education. Mampilly joined Montclair State University in 1986 where he pursued a degree in business administration. He later moved to Fordham Gabelli School of Business where he graduated with a master in the same course in 1991.
Upon completing his studies, Mampilly was lucky enough to get a job invitation at the Wall Street where he started working for the Bankers Trust Company. He was the assistant portfolio manager of the organization. Mampilly’s effort and skills made the management promote him to become the head of portfolio management within the second year of his work in the company. After three years of service at the Bankers Trust, the company was acquired by another reputable bank, Deutsche Bank. This was a reason enough to make Mampilly transition to start working for the bank as an assistant to the research analyst. He was later promoted and became a senior analyst to the company’s portfolio. Later, Mampilly transferred to several other organizations, all of which he left a legacy in portfolio management.
However, despite having achieved a lot in the corporate sector, Paul Mampilly realized that his skills and expertise in portfolio and wealth management were never as beneficial to the common Americans as he would have expected. He decided to quit the portfolio management job and figure out a way in which he could make his services more useful to the people who required it. This was when Mampilly entered Banyan Hill Publishing as senior editor at the organization. There, he publishes his finance and investment insights and advice and distributes it to the hundreds of thousands of Americans who benefit greatly from it.
