Building wealth in Nepal means fighting systems that were never designed to let you win.
In this episode of Rato Rupaiya: The Podcast, we sit down with Bal Krishna Joshi , a fintech entrepreneur who has spent over 25 years challenging how money moves across borders.
From co-founding Thamel.com, Nepal’s first e-commerce platform, to building ThamelRemit, Machnet, and now Xuno, Bal has been questioning the status quo long before “fintech” became a buzzword.
We talk about how he made his first multi-millions at 26, but more importantly , what it actually cost him.
This conversation goes deep into:
✓ Challenging the status quo in finance and payments
✓ Why cross-border payments are still broken
✓ The hidden cost entrepreneurs pay beyond money
✓ Work–life balance when the mission never switches off
✓ Building long-term systems vs chasing quick wins
✓ Why doing the right thing often takes longer and costs more
✓ No hustle clichés. No motivational fluff.
✓ Just business, people, and money as they really are.
This episode is about money, systems, and the personal price of going against them told by someone who chose the hard road early.
