Wow !!! Zabardast Article
by Uday Patadia on Jul 26, 2005 05:29 PM  Permalink 

what kind of message are you trying to give ? heck if ur happy earning such amounts from tips and selling spects and some nondescript salary u r making now then how could u afford to read HarryPotter? will u get a bicycle to have ur trip outside mumbai everyyear for some a week under open sky Hotel?. Dude havent u read Maslow theory????? Heck u cant even afford British Library's Membership fees.The very fact that u have written this article shows u r desperate to make money but u have used ur imagination to the power of x here.Anyone cant trust that u sold spects for .50 paisa when u know Internet and English. comeOn . dont think Readers are such a fool that u can have a take on them but i appreciate u indeed made one out of the editors team ar Rediff.

Amazing story.
My hats off to Preetee if this is her first story!
I am waiting for her next story, if possible mail me a link whenever that happens º

Preetee, my advise is to not waste your time on this and instead try publishing a book on this theme, it might make you the millions that you don¡¦t want and you can happily donate it to any social development agency!

Cheers,
Amit

Earn, Earn and Earn
by Rahul Jain on Jul 26, 2005 03:54 PM  Permalink 

I regard the writer's way of thinking a lack of understanding and inelligibility to earn. A mere foolish wat to feel satisfied.

Khatte Angoor (Sour Grapes)
by Ajit Singh on Jul 26, 2005 02:30 PM  Permalink 

Bhaiyaa,

Sabse bada rupaiyaa. Ok, ok, it is bit exageration but money IS important. All the things you ahve mentioned are okay for living in a "phatehaal" jeans in a dilapilated one room on rent as a bachelor but the needs would multiply by a factor of million when you get married and get kids.

So, please give some sensible advice and don't sound a loser.

Cheer up and earn.

Ajit.

If we all earned millions...response
by Ravi K on Jul 26, 2005 01:40 PM  Permalink 

Hi Preetee,

Though you claim not to be bothered about earning money, you still seem to be craving for it ...your story about could`nt care less smacks of `sour grapes` ...the question is not about earning or not earning ...it `s about one`s relationship with money...true ..a certain amount of detachment ,and willingness to let go ,and spend on OTHERS can and does empower a person ...at least it has in my case !

Regards,

Ravi K

Good job

Good message for people running after money, and forgetting whats around them

Don't we always listen from millionaires that they feel lonely, they miss the simple joys of life, like having Chat, in public.

Enjoy, what you have!

life is better than money
by anees on Jul 26, 2005 01:08 PM  Permalink 

i liked the article. i think we should not be as materialistic as the world is heading to . i mean earning is a must to support u but wanting millions is not in good taste. we all should think about life and spend it in a enjoyable manner, (enjoyable dosent mean disco parties, fashionable attire etc) happiness & peace is very important which i think everybody is lacking even though they may say they are happy with life.

If we all earned millions
by Raghu on Jul 26, 2005 12:55 PM  Permalink 

How beautifully has Preetee worded the unending quench of a middle class, semi successful man. Bravo!
Just to add to what you have written...
the pain of not being able to earn a handful of moola more that the routine salary always keeps pricking the peace of mind...

good luck
raghu

TO be a millionaire
by Gaurav on Jul 26, 2005 12:52 PM  Permalink 

It was an interesting read. I think you are on right path to be a millionaire, people who don't succeed have a very bright chances of success when they start writing coz they can write about their failures and lot of others can read about those failures and avoid those..so that cud make u money.
