Average Indian Life

Indians Life are very interesting. Starting from pushing to choose friends to writing will, nothing happens on their own. Here is a compilation which says about the Average Indian Life. Just born, receives a slap on the butt. Injections and vaccinations. Rubs shit on the body, stinks. Sleeps between parents, ruins their sex life. Thrown into pre-nursery school at the age of 2 years. School interviews, admission. Has to carry the load of a bag like a donkey. Exams, insults, exams, suspension, exam, PTM, tuitions, sports, exams, report cards, exams, warnings, exams, finds true love of life. Schooling over, lover finds someone else in new college.

Hong Kong - The round clock city to Enjoy

Image
After almost a month, I am back to write at these blogs.  Hong Kong  comes alive at night, abuzz with diners, revelers, theater goers and even market traders still out plying their wares. The nightlife scene is rightly legendary: there is something to do at every time of the day in this city that never sleeps. The nightlife options are too numerous to mention, but below you’ll find just a sample of what’s on offer: from cultural performances through to late-night party venues and midnight feasts. You can also spend a whole night in Wan Chai with our guide to one of the city’s most renowned night owl destinations. So you’re after a good time? You’ve definitely come to the right city! Hong Kong boasts entertainment galore and most of it kicks off after sunset.

"You have a Baby Boy" - Touching Accident Incident

Happening of accident in India has become too usual and common stuff. To coin in a different version, "It is as usual as charging a mobile phone". But only when it happens in our family or our associate, the pain comes up bulged. After having a long trip to Thiruchengode, Coimbatore, Salem I was driving my car back to home all alone since the driver was given with some leave. And I love driving the car all alone or with highly confidante of mine. Whenever I have such an option, I never miss it. And while driving alone or with driver I never stand on the accidents after the 2007 issue of helping an International Person on this affair. But all of a sudden yesterday while returning, crossing Villupuram (a locality in Tamil Nadu, India) late night saw some watery substance in the road and slowed my vehicle. At the dark after turning my car lamps from high to low beam, found two people on the road. As the blood was not clotted in the road, I learnt that the accident could h...

People Expect Big Always

The people in the world including me expect everything to happen in a BIGGER manner and beyond the expectations. Yet still, even after achieving it we aren’t happy. This is a clear defined psychological disorder in my perspective. In India, initially there was a guy who was drawing USD 100 a month; he expected to add a “0” at the last of the salary figure. He worked too hard and added as he wished. Now, he was drawing USD 1000 a month; he wanted to double his salary value. Yes, he achieved in doing it. Now comes the tax issue, so he started all the tax saving process. To have his sustainable income, he wanted to earn some more, this continued until he reached the monthly salary USD 7500 at different actions. And his will came live, he got a good position into the society and unable to move with the society for his personal pleasures. Though he had a big bank balance, he wasn’t able to eat peacefully as he had a huge stress issues. What was the final outcome of earning such? I have even...

Romantic Bus Rides in TNSTC + 2

I could see your face glittering on reading this post title. Yes, I could surely say it as Romantic Ride on Sunday evening to my mother's hometown without any protocol or stupids behind me. Wanted my car to be picked-up and unfortunately my driver was on leave and more interesting is that I was jobless. It is a very rare occasion to get jobless moments. So decided to pick it up.  Started from my home at 6.30 PM and reached the bus station point at 6.35 PM. Since the junction is a prominent one, happened to meet most of the VIPs and my school VIPs. With numerous Hi and Hello's was about to board into the bus at 6.55 PM routing to Jipmer. Reached in around 17 minutes. Most of the seats were filled with young couples married and families who were returning after the visit to Beach or Sunday Market which is very famous in Pondicherry.  This was a the second break and had met almost 12 people including old employees. I really love travelling in the foot board alike my school ...

Indeterminable Reserve Bank of India (RBI) - Part 1 of 2

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is India's Central Banking Institution, which controls the Monetary Policy of the Indian Rupee and other banks operating within India. Sometimes, RBI is well known for its stupidest decisions. Last December (2013), under the heading of the new Governor, there was a decision for increase in security by inputting the PIN at POS for transactions. Upto me this is one of the wrong decision take by RBI. A latest statistics quotes that the Debit / Credit Card are owned by 67% of the Upper Middle Class and High Class people across India. Of this the most of them are of high class. Just imagine for each and every transaction would the CEO go down to the cash counter to input the PIN? Or will he get down from the car while fueling up? No for both the cases, he needs to share his/her PIN to sub-ordinates or to the person who serves him. This is a very serious threat. Same way, I was in an average hotel a week ago. I happened to counter one of the balance 33% of...

HDFC Loans - Approval

It will be highly funny as well as crucial when a loan application is being rejected or approved. I thought of sharing a small incident which happened before the application was being approved. I was under the category of SALARIED. I recently got my Form 16. The loan process was too simple and got it done within few Hours. Though my office was at Chennai, I had a proof of Pondicherry which created some fuzz among the Bankers. Then they investigated it and got it done. Eventhough it was a secured loan, the bank was highly curious about the approval of my loan. When my CIBIL score was 764, they made it right under the clause. Now, its the time for me to ensure that the payments are being done regularly. I finally learnt how to get rid of the CIBIL Negative Scoring and to repair the CIBIL Score. If you wish to get some tips, let me, I will help to get rid it in few simple ways.

Losing a Business

Losing future business is very simple these days. Just deliver without quality, you can lose it. But recently I had a study/learning about losing a business by being adamant. Yes, I was in a good contact with an organization since 2009. That was of an win-win opportunity for both of us. In 2010, we have generated them a revenue of around 100,000 INR. Recently, they have upgraded the platform. In that platform, we were given with the rights of creating multiple issues and we did it. Finally at the end, we got a call saying you will be charged for all the issues verbally and there was no email or written communication earlier. We all got shocked about it and had a strong argument. The business head was no way co-operating for our terms, and she was a lady. The issue generated a revenue of INR 15,000 for us and we were charged with INR 10,000 and again the TDR for that INR 15,000. We explained a lot to the person who were involved in it expressing the fact of how we will be losing and fac...
