Entrepreneur and financial expert Gurmeet Chaddha has recently emphasized the importance of encouraging children to participate in sports. In a post shared on X, the managing partner of Complete Circle Wealth Solutions highlighted that playing a sport not only keeps kids physically active but also nurtures essential values and life lessons.
He explained that sports teach youngsters how to accept defeat with humility, respect their opponents after a match, and understand that a loss represents a single event rather than a reflection of one’s character. It also instills team spirit, reinforces the idea that every new game begins afresh, and most importantly, helps build lasting friendships that often go beyond the playing field.
"Apart from fitness, it teaches you how to lose gracefully, hug your opponent post the contest... Defeat is an event & not a person," he wrote.

His tenure there was marked by strategic initiatives that enhanced the institution’s investment portfolio and client engagement.

He also began his career with HDFC Bank, taking on various responsibilities that helped him gain a deep understanding of the financial ecosystem and customer needs.
