Re: Priyamvada Birla. I admire & support this lady. She did the right thing.

Kamalji, I know how this world treats people who are not rich. Hubby's maternal grandma was sought after by all to live with them as she has $$$ in her account. Whereas an old aunt in the family was put into an old age ashram as she has no money. Pathetic isn't it?

Looks like we have to start planning for granny flats like the westerners. Maal hai to taal hai goes a saying. In this age, I agree. Yes, exceptions are there who still revere parents as Gods. I know people who do not believe in Gods, rituals etc. But when it comes to parents, they go the full mile.

They have my full respect.

Regards,

Dear Coral,

Yes sadly that is the way of the world these days.A very sorry state of affairs.that is why I always stress to the elderly not to gift or give away things when they are alive.

If not the sons, at least u can afford outside help with the money that u have ?

Regards.kamal

I will tell u of a funny example of my cousin in Singapore.Rich fellow, but ingenious ideas.


In Singapore there used to be a third party insurance,meaning another person can pay ur insurance and when u die he will collect the premium.So his scheme was this.


He would select an elderly person, judging that thisperson wont live say beyond 3 years.For the elderly the insurance is hefty.


This guy would , with her ok, insure her, and give her X amounf of money, which was agreed upon.

If the lady died say within 3 yrs of natural causes, he would earn, if she lived beyond he lost the money.

He mad a lot of money.HAHA

And here comes Kamalji with his own money making schemes.so if u have a rich old lady whom u know, introduce me to her, and we will share theloot, sorry the money she leaves behind to me.

Seva kar to Meva mile.HAHA

Regards.kamal
Dear Kamalji
This cousin of yours looks to be too smart........haha
Your scheme sounds great...........I will be on a hunt to find an old lady to share the money and you be on the hunt for an old man........
and lets both do the Seva to eat the Meva.............hehehehe

Nice post ...

hmmm.. me thinks, these mothers gave too much of materialistic advice and brought them up, that the sons missed their responsibility in life - Look after your parents.
