Everything about Fiat Currency

We would often hear our grandparents say that when they were kids, they would get a coin of 25 paise to buy ice cream cones for the whole family. Then, our parents said that they got ₹2 coins to buy those cones. Today, we buy those for ₹50. It is fascinating how price of a single commodity could take so many shapes, literally. 25 paise coins were round and small. ₹2 coins are a bit bigger. And the ₹50, well, they are no circular metal thing but a piece of rectangular paper. Ever wondered how they came into existence? How they evolved? What are they backed by? How can a piece of paper hold monetary value?

How Does the Government Control Inflation?

A group of robbers entered the minting unit of a country. There were many people inside the unit. The group held all of them hostage. They stayed there for days and started printing money.

Go Green! That’s what they say. Since 6th grade we have been taught that the formation of fossil fuels such as coal takes a long time and that the supply for the same is limited and going green is the solution.

What is black money and how does it work?

What do we talk about when we talk about black money and money laundering?

The Covid19 pandemic added some new words to our everyday vocabulary, ‘vaccine’ and ‘jabbed’ being the relevant ones. Team Covishield or Covaxin? Which one are you?

Everything about the Stock Market Crash 2022!

We learnt about perishable and non-perishable products in our middle school. We would generally categorize food such as vegetables and fruits as perishable and mostly non-edible things as non-perishable. But this is not middle school and in the finance world, we don’t talk about aloo pyaaz ke dam. In the finance world, we talk about shares and investments. And shares and investments are not perishable items that in times of crisis, you sell all of them to save yourself from incurring further losses. They are more like fine wine. The more you age them, the better they get (well, most of them)!

Hospitality Industry: An Informational Insight

Hello. Would you like something hot or cold to go with your read today? Perhaps, I could interest you in some unknown facts? A little lesson on ‘why the 5-star hotels are losing money’ on the side, maybe? Let’s talk about the hospitality industry today. A general confusion that persists is that the hotel and the hospitality industry are one and the same, and so must be the travel and the hospitality... But they are not. Let us look at it this way- if the hospitality industry is a universal set, then the hotel and the travel industry are subsets of it, with many others comprised in it. And if you, my friend, yes YOU, are mathematically challenged just like I am, you’ll have to read further to find out.

Is India's Education System killing its Economy?

As little kids, we were told that marks are all that matter and if you don’t score well, you won’t be able to survive in this cruel world. That, you will be considered dumb. That, you will have to live a mediocre life in the best possible scenario. And we were given examples of people next door who did not study and are struggling and suffering now. What if, instead, we were told to study the life of Steve Jobs, who without a college degree, created Apple; Walt Disney, who had formal education only till 16, Ellen DeGeneres, who didn’t need a degree to tell her that she is humorous; Mark Zuckerberg, Jack Dorsey, Oprah Winfrey, Madonna, Kanye West, Vin Diesel, all the same. “But beta, things work differently in foreign countries.” To that, I say, Sachin Tendulkar, Mukesh Ambani, Gautam Adani, Aamir Khan, Azim Premji, Mary Kom, Smriti Irani. Good enough for ya? These people did not earn their wealth because they were outstanding in studies, but rather chose to break the chains of this so-called ‘contemporary education system’.

Padhega India tabhi toh badhega India. But quality education has become a luxury to a middle-class person in India.
