Sky Watch on 21.12.2012

Well well… the world was supposed to end today morning and my son has been curiously asking me way too much about it and I already regret having decided to tell him that some Mayan’s thought today the earth was going to end… Never tell an 8 year old that… no he doesn’t get scared he only gets so anxious and curious he will kill you with his questions and logics and actually make you pull your hair… just as you are enjoying Rahane smashing Sixes he comes up with a logic… login to gmail and talk to some friend in Australia… ask them if they are alive !!!! I am like why ? What ? It must be midnight so it must be 21st there and probably they are already being finished  :|   and then he will ask you, how are you going to save me and mom if suppose a flood comes ? Smart Dad says, we go to the terrace, well, what if the water goes above the 2nd floor, irritated dad says, we climb to the terrace of the building next to us, but logical son wants to know, how can we go to that building when we are on our house terrace and its water till 2 floors sigh.. :| Thankfully two wickets fell and the attention got diverted… *phew*

Anxiously enough today morning’s sky looked a bit like this at 7!

Quotes, chucked jobs & entrepreneurship

 

What with Warren Buffett quotes and sayings flying everywhere on Facebook I couldn’t resist this post, I have always read every piece that reads the word Buffet for obvious reasons… :mrgreen:   The non believers will probably turn up and just stick their :P and tell me I only care about food ! Yes I do, but I do listen to all important things this man has to say… He infact has very simple things to say but at most times we forget these simple, seemingly inane yet fundamentally most important ways of behaving especially when it comes to investments, managing risk and seeking returns.

Investing time in food is as important as anything :) :) :)

And when Legendary Investors like him are allowed to throw their gyaan everywhere why would this True Legend in every sense be left behind anywhere…

 

Yes, Usha, right after reading your Buffet quote share and me sharing another piece of advice by Buffet yours truly left for his work and while driving his bike came up with this genius thought in his brain…

 

“In the service industry its pertinent that you give maximum priority to an existing customer and always ensure he is satisfied even at the cost of new business.” – Hitchy Bawa 7th Feb 2012

 

Simple logic being if you have only satisfied customers they will ensure you have no dearth of new business /clients :) :) :)

 

Anyone that guffaws thinking this is simply so obvious can actually go jump in the lake. I think this is a genius piece that I have come up with and I am laying claims to this !!!! :evil: If this is obvious so are all of Buffet’s advises. He says nothing that we don’t know and yet they are so priceless, practical and most difficult to actually comprehend in reality, in moments where they most necessarily need to be practiced.

Now if you happen to find this post completely useless… sigh… and yes I don’t just blog for myself, I do crave to be read by you readers… yea ! Jump and Clap… I do write for you… for I never understood people who write for themselves… why they would put things in public and not in a diary of their own :P :P :P ok yea that was a cheapstroke and I know it :mrgreen:

**ducks all the chappals and sandals** :P :twisted:

 

Sigh… enough of digressing… coming back to if you find this post completely useless… well here is a piece of small information that might prove to be useful…

 

Just yesterday a friend called me to ask what is the formula to calculate the interest if the money is being doubled in 8 years. Whilst I told him that I can teach him that vonly and vonly if he will feed me a Tees Number Paan… A thought passed my mind may be I should post the same on the blog some of you might also be faced with a similar question at some point of time :)

 

Well folks, behold…

 

72 is a magic figure to calculate Interest or duration of money being doubled.

 

Can’t get it ?

 

Lemme explain…

 

If someone tells you he will double your money in 6 years. Simply divide 72 by 6 and you get 12 that is the rate of interest he is offering to you.

 

And if some one is telling you he is giving you 9% interest and you are wondering how do I calculate when will my money double and you feel you can’t be an ass and ask the guy… here is a simple thing to do…

 

take 72 and divide it by 9 and lo… 8 years is the time in which your money will be doubled. :) :) :) :) :) :angel:

Yes… bless me… :) :) :) :)

Old err… New Mountain sayings…. !

 

When you travel to the hills, when it gets freezing cold, when your hands refuse to come out of your pockets unless you want to use them for holding a tea cup, when your nose is frozen and you keep gasping for breath and keep shivering one thing that suddenly improves is your sense of humour !!!

some snippets suddenly jump out and they are so much fun… a couple of  the most popular one liner’s that I’d like to share with you guys during our trip….

1.) Nahate woh log hai…. jo gande hote hai… ! (to be spoken in true Raj Kumar accent for ace effect !!! :P :P )

2.) Jab junglo mein rehna hai… to jungliyo ki tarah hi raho… ! (to be spoken in true Punjabi Accent for max effect :cool: )

3.) Arrey… yeh makhiya kaha se aa gayi…. Abhi do din pehle hi to nahaye the… ! ( must be spoken softly as if mumbling to yourself ! :twisted:   )

this one is a question followed by a one line reply by one guy who was absolutely wabsolutely drunk and had lost his senses… well that was what we thought, but one thing about alchohol… it may make you lose your senses, it doesnt let you lose your wit !!!!!

The Sober Guy : Aapki Age kya ho gayi… ?

The witty Drunk Guy : 40 !

The Sober Guy : To phir kya vichar hai… Shaadi Waadi nahi karni ??

The witty Drunk Guy : O.. Ji… mujhe… hain na…  pause… main… hain na…. mujhe shaanti bahot pasand hai… isliye… hai na… main ladaai jhagde se door hi rehta hooon… !! :O

Frankly, for a second, I didnt get the joke… and then I was Guffawing like crazy !!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D
