Austerity Debate

The Austerity Debate had fatal blow on two of the Ministers of the UPA ver2.0. Shri S M Krishna and Shri Sashi Tharoor. The later bore the brunt of the joke on Cattle Class that was for me a prompt, answer to a prompt question on "Twitter".

The Indian Sub Continent has been a different society and here the show of wealth is only permitted in marriages.

People by culture are expected to practice Austerity... the debate is in fact between consumerism and Austerity. between saving and spending.

It should not be made limited to the Public Money and Self Money.

The balance of consumerism and saving in India protected us from being the victim of the great Economic Debacle.

When we expect the exercising of Austerity we Expect Savings on unnecessary expences.

When we expect exercising of the Austerity we Expect a reasonable Lifestyle and not the Cattle Class for the Ministers. The ministers avoiding the private Jets and even travelling long distance in Business Class is welcome.

By Austerity we will also have great contribution towards the "REDUCTION OF GREEN HOUSE GASES". Since for long distance travells a private jet will also spend same amount of fuel which a commercial liner will spend, but in a commercial liner more people will be able to travel a same cost and same fuel

So there are many facets of Austerity than just the Cattle Class and that Who are you to ask me not to spend when i can spend?

THINK on it

Education: A Key Driver of Social Change and Economic Development

Education is not just a means to acquire knowledge and skills, but a powerful tool that can transform individuals, communities, and societies. It can contribute to economic growth, social cohesion, and democratic governance. Education is a fundamental human right and a public good that should be accessible to all, regardless of their background or circumstances. However, despite its importance, education remains a contested and politicized issue in many parts of the world. Governments, civil society, the private sector, and other stakeholders have different views and interests in shaping education policies and practices. This has led to unequal access to education, poor quality of education, and inadequate resources for education. To address these challenges, public policymakers and politicians need to understand the importance of education in shaping the society they want to create and serve. They need to recognize that education is not a neutral or technical matter, but a complex...

Save early to earn more

Save early to earn more Prabhakar Sinha | TNN Time is money, goes the saying, which holds true in almost all aspects of life. But, it is more so in case of savings. If you start saving early, by the time you retire, you will have enough money to lead a prosperous retired life. When you start saving early, your saved amount gets a longer time to earn returns. Take for example, if you start saving at the age of 25, or just at the time when you get your first salary, your savings of Rs 5,000 per month, at a conservative return of 10% per annum, will swell to Rs 1.91 crore in 35 years or by the time you retire at the age of 60. But, if you start saving late, say, at the age of 30, your saving of Rs 5,000 per month will become Rs 1.14 crore. If you start at 35, the amount will become only Rs 67 lakh. And, at the age of 35, even if you start saving double the amount i.e. Rs 10,000 per month, by the time of retirement, that will become only Rs 1.34 crore. This is called power...
