What makes me comment here is your mention about the relaince barrons mega mansion, I know lots been said about it already and people even say to me that "but he creates emplyoments for so many". But that's not the point,as the employment he generates is for profits and hence can not be counted as philantropic gesture, en plus I am great believer in coprporates moral responsibility to the well being of the society.Perhaps he could have spent a few lakhs on planting trees and making surroundings of Antliia better or something more noble(imho).viksdeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08912981440350655044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25171037.post-31810148915391226972010-10-21T13:25:43.601+05:302010-10-21T13:25:43.601+05:30Manju, RGB,Kavi, One Woman's Journey, Aundhati...<b>Manju, RGB,Kavi, One Woman's Journey, Aundhati </b> Thank you for the comments.

Those who flaunt it, make the headlines. The others find a passing mention or perhaps none!RGBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15279590663523317849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25171037.post-14811749074543016792010-10-16T09:25:15.231+05:302010-10-16T09:25:15.231+05:30The times are changing.

I read the stories that you quote.<br /><br />There is also another set of people that do quite a bit for society, and often dont talk about it. That is a large number too that seeks to keep quiet and move on. <br /><br />Things are indeed changing.

There may be lakhs or even crores in the bank but they don't find it necessary to spend on anything other than books. They think and check with the spouse before spending more than Rs. 500 on a single purchase.<br />Either way, it reflects in the way the children behave - and not just with respect to value for money/hard work but in general tooArundhatihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18175971860205359849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25171037.post-52397552746763696902010-10-15T18:24:10.291+05:302010-10-15T18:24:10.291+05:30Wonderful post, Suranga!

Now the Mantra is 'if you got it- flaunt it'! For those who can afford it, of course.<br /><br />And for those hard-working folk like your household help- well life goes on as usual....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
