Choices

Life is full choices which one you choose will lead to other more +ve or -ve. Expect more from yourself than from others. Because expectation from others hurts a lot, while expectation from yourself inspires a lot.

Expecting time to move very fast .... my brain must be occupied with all soughts of things so that i will have no time to spiral on some things.

Living

Actually living for others really sucks, that everybody knows but leads the same. Something we really won't do because we live for others screw them

1.Afraid to marry a gal of other community.
2.Switch to new job.
3.Trying other profession.
4.Starting our own company
5.Buying a car
6.Buying a house....

what not... the list goes like anything

Everything includes fear of betrayal ... public insult just for the sake of others .... we won't do and we just don't want to do .......ufffffff

My Ipod Touch

I bought an iPod touch yesterday it was really cool. Now I know why people are so crazy about Apple products. I couldn't resist myselff to blog about it. Just now getting accoustmed to it. By the way right now I am blogging from my cute Ipod Touch.

I'm loving it..........

Why people do that ?

Today i was traveling in the bus and there was a 25 year old guy who is standing on the foot board. The bus is half empty i don't what makes him stand there. Then the conductor just called that guy to come on board but he genuinely rejected the request and kept standing there.

Is it the comfortability he gets there or he just want to feel the Chennai pollution ? (I doubt it !) . Guys keep note that children will be watching us they just they will just imitate us.Please avoid foot board travel.

Frustration

I was looking for a house for rent. My first thought is to scan the online portals so that i can get some leads. I just did a search in magicbricks,99acres,indiaproperty,sulekha the results will be like individual postings are very rare and it will over valued. I am thinking like " Why people wont post in the online portals ? Is that they are not tech savvy kinds ? " might be true .

So the ad's didn't helped me at all.So the next thing i did is go and get a Free Ad's paper and try the search this time i got one or two. Maybe here the just dial concept works people just calls and tell their Ad and it will be printed. Here also no luck for some we called them late some doesn't suit our requirements.Half of my patience is gone here as i went to see a Apartment in saidapet which taken off all my strength in walking (maybe i should practice jogging) and i finally reached the destination the road is so small that a two biker can't go around but it's ok as i don't have a bike or car (My salary doesn't fit for that ) we went inside and it is damn small and don't have any ventilation and he said 6k is the rent"What 6k for this type of house ?". Ok i left the place as if i was got cheated but i told my friend about this incident and he said in reality it is how it will work in saidapet.

Ok my intention is not pay a penny to the middle man .So me and my friend decided to roam around and check if there are any TOLET boards around. We roamed in Thiruvanmiyur on the first day. Wow! on the first turn went i have seen a TOLET hanging over there.So we jumped to that place and asked with a lot of excitement with the little knowledge of Tamil i know. He said it's for family. It sounds me like "You stupid bachelors you don't know how to maintain the house. Just get out of my place !" and again we just started roaming around we went to one house it's in the first floor house seems to be good but small it's ok we are looking for only two guys then we decide ok if it is 7k we will say YES. I asked the boy who showed us the house with my Telugu tamil acscent "What is the rent ?" he said "it's 9k""Are you nuts who is going to pay 9k for a 400 sqft house ?" umm.. ok it's his house he can price it whatever way he wants.

Then our search went on from vijayanagar to velachery ending with no TOLET boards but that contradicts the online portals which has a lot of listings given by Brokers. "Damn why don't they just put that board ?"


I went to kotivakkam to check, there i have seen houses which can accommodate schools of 200 strength " why you guys need those big houses ? Why you make the Real Estate to reach it skies ?" ok they have money so they can build, as simple as it is. It is obvious that we can't get a house for 6k in that area.

Frustration all over my mind.My friend said "Life is always beautiful" it made me a bit chill.The next day i have seen an Ad in TCS portal which eventually got me a good (thought so) house

What happens

What happens if Bill Gates was born in India in 1955 (which is his actual birth year) at the age of 20 he will not have the access to computer which he has in united states.

I agree that Vinod Khosla who was born at the same time in India.He is also successful of starting Sun Microsystems but he i not as successful as Gates.If he is given the opportunity like Gates maybe he would have founded a better company than microsoft.

I am not actually comparing Microsoft Vs Sun success where both of them serving a different kinds of market.I am talking the opportunity what Gates has having an access to the computer at a tender age.

P.S Some information is from the book OUTLIERS.

New Home Syndrome

The biggest expense in life is having an own house.How to get rid of "New Home Syndrome" ? How to make ourself not to get into that huge debt ?

Once we are taken that decision we will be paralyzed not to make any adventures in life we will bound to that debt.But having a home on loan is not asset it is the liability for next twenty years !

I assume like it's good to take a new house when the EMI what we need to pay is 100% more than the rent what we are paying now.What if we need to pay five times (some places more than that) the rent what we are paying right now ? Is it wise to get into debt ?

There is contrary to this "not acting fast will end up paying more from our pocket" it is like in 2004 one sq ft in velachery is Rs 1500 now it's close to Rs 4000 a huge bump in the price with no reason there is no development happened in terms of road,transport etc.I don't know why the hell the price is increased.We need to hope all this printing money will go bust and we will end up having a own house for affordable price.

P.S But having our own house is exciting isn't it ;)
