Does money grow on trees
Does money grow on trees? If you’re an NRI that’s the question that needs to be asked to our relatives in India, as they think we are overloaded with money from head to toe. They get this impression from every NRI, and we never seem to know why this is the case. There’s only one reason which I can think of and that’s due to the exchange rate, for $1 you get Rs44 and for 1 pound you get Rs88, so because you are getting more rupees out of the pound or dollar you can do more shopping as products will seem cheaper. Another reason is that some items which are sold outside of India are expensive and those same products brought in India are less than half the price, so it is more profitable for NRI’s to buy products from India and there fore they buy more, which makes their families and friends look as if they are millionaires. A good example is clothing for women, material is 10 times cheaper in India than America or England therefore women tend to buy material from India and get their dresses made from India too and I am talking about 30-40 dresses. This amount is made as its not all the time that people can come to India so when they do some they make a lot of suits which will last them till a long time. So what we need to explain to people is that money doesn’t grow on trees we have earned by working hard and things we buy are for our use not to waste.
