Home very very away from office.

Shifted to my new place in Navi Mumbai. Sounds far right? But it isn’t. 1 hour 15 minutes to reach office. Manageable. Changing 3 trains to reach office. Not bad at all. Am I complaining? Can I afford to? No. Because I can’t afford to buy place in Mumbai. Not yet.

How to buy a house in Mumbai?

Invent something like google.com

Do business. (But what business should I do?)

Marry a rich girl (Too late to do so for me at least)

Play the lottery (Tried. Not working)

Build strong networking. Get rich people in your contact list and sell insurance to them or become a middleman and conduct business. (Difficult for someone like me.)

The only choice I have is to work hard, work smart. Jump up the ladder. Do whatever it is to be successful in your profession.

Current scenario. I am not doing that bad. But then I am not doing that good also.

Philosophy: Sometimes wealth and fame don’t go hand in hand. You need to make a choice. (I think this has no connection to the above. But hey it’s my blog.)


Till I can afford to buy my home in Mumbai, I will be signing off from Navi Mumbai.

idea 1 - ask ur company to open another office in navi mumbai. c'mon don't they need to show the world that they are growing? and then they'll get everything cheaper that side - company will save lot of money in chai, coffee, stationery...!

idea 2 - go after the government to make a direct railway line connecting KHAR and koparKHAiRane.

idea 3 - work from home. tell ur company that this way u can save travel time and put in extra hours of work.

Feel you man. Here in Lagos (Nigeria), it's a crazy deal if you're living on the mainland and working on the island. Thankfully, I live and work on the mainland. yipee!

The Empty Page

What to write? A million words in mind but nothing on paper. Scattered thoughts but nothing concrete. Source of inspiration, nothing. Should I write about a song, I am listening to. Or the ones that I want to. What to write? It’s not a writer’s block. It’s just nothing. Should I write about love? Or what I hate. What to write? How about a poem? Or a song? What should it be about? What to write?  How about a joke?  “Knock knock”, who’s there?  "Nothing." What to write? How about nothing.

Getting married.

A guy like me getting married is unthinkable for people who know me. The whole concept of holy matrimony according to me is completely inevitable, in a land called India at least. So why the surprise I wonder? People change for better or for worse but they do change. Am I sounding matured? If yes, I have changed. If no, you are still the same.

Shopping is life, life is shopping

Our marriage shopping is over, we got married! Reason for more shopping... my brother's marriage shopping, then casual shopping, then birthday shopping, then his bro's marriage shopping... two people don't seem to be affected by recession... better worded - two people have gone crazy after recession.
