Thank you, Ready2MoveIn, sid_earth. And I thought I was pessimistic about the world economy based on what (little) I knew. You guys know more than I do. I get the sense from the posts and other resources posted that we are headed for (high) inflation (atleast in what WE consume, like food and fuel ...

While we are arguing about Gold as a store of value, an interesting thing happened during my googleadventures. I stumbled upon the Rothschild family. It seems that in April 2004, the Rothschilds, who were the heriditary chairmen of the London Gold Fix since 1919 (when the process began), withdrew ...

avasanth, I would like to add to your post: Gold price is not free market determined, it is fixed, twice a day, by 5 players. It is called Gold Fixing (what else?) :) [URL]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_fixing[/URL]

Hi all! Has anyone thought about a Tata Indica Vista? I have had good experiences with this car (rental, hired for a New Delhi - Uttarakhand trip), the overall impression is that of a comfortable yet sturdy vehicle, with the diesel not being too much of an inconvenience. Never drove one though.

My most vivid memory of my first love is me in the arms of another girl, crying like a baby. N was not my first girlfriend, nor was she the most beautiful girl ever. But she was my first love. We had this strong connection that was just too much to ignore. We met in a UPSC coaching class, I still ...

1) How long have you been in abroad (US, UK, Europe, Mid East, Singapore etc)? USA, UK... a total of 5 years, and it seems too long already... 2) If R2I, How long did you live away from India before moving back? Where do you live in India? My last visit was last year, so 8 months? 3) Are you married ...
