Of course, 4.5 crores earnings by age 35 is still pretty good. If he invested wisely (e.g. buying apartments or shares) he could have doubled that amount. Also, if his new venture pays off, then from age 35 to 45 he could make 12-15 crores.
Bottomline: Even though Ramanuj's rants against NLUs, wokes, liberals and elites may be annoying, he's got a lot of guts and has set up a good business. He is his own boss and doesn't need to take orders from Cyril or Vandana or Paridhi Shroff. Many NLU grads are secretly envious of him and would love to set up their own successful business like him. Also, pretty much all startup founders have an aggressive bro attitude: Asheer Grover, Nikhil Kamath etc. Don't grudge Ramanuj for it.
So give where credit is due and don’t be salty
