How to handle money. Let you drive money. Don't let money drive you.

I left my highly paid corporate job [for my level in industry] on this May 6th and was enjoying the rainy season in my native place, kerala for past 2 and half months. Initial days went fine but gradually my bank balance went down to zero. Then I did a recap to my past 4 years of corporate life and I found out where my money flowed away. So I just want to give some tips for you, the blog reader.

1. Never Never use a credit card. Credit card is the biggest black hole that eats up your salary.

2.You may be CEO of a giant company, but Live like a student. Then you will enjoy your life like anything.

3.Visit an orphanage or a charity organization when you are getting time. Then you will realize how lucky you are.

4. Don't go for any brand dress. Get a dress that fit for you and you feels comfortable. Brand dresses are just crap. They are just looting people using their brand names. If you would like to have branded dresses, buy it on any offer or from shops selling defective dresses. In India, there are lot of shops selling defective dresses.

Please add the missing points and your views.

August 26, 2011 Missing those days badly. “Very few people have ever said anything nice about Calcutta, unless they were Bengali.” (Geoffrey Moorhouse) Kolkata , The City of joy   She is very beautiful and will create a strong bond with you for a lifetime. If you had lived with her for some time, she would gift warm memories you will never forget in all your life!  I was with her for 4 years and imagine the deep affection I’ve had for her. I always enjoyed the weekends with her, strolling in the old streets or in the high-tech Salt Lake City where air-conditioned cars silently traversed alongside cycle rickshaws and auto-rickshaws. The tuk-tuk drivers in Kolkata never cease to  amaze you with their impressive driving skills and to enjoy the true roller-coaster tuk-tuk ride, I suggest taking a ride in Salt Lake on the morning of any weekday, a tuk-tuk fast and furious? a gripping experience.
