Who is a Project manager?

> A tourist walked into a pet shop and was looking at the animals on
display.While he was there, another customer walked in and said to the
shopkeeper, "I'll have a C monkey please."
>
> The shopkeeper nodded, went over to a cage at the side of the shop and
took out a monkey. He fit a collar and leash, handed it to the customer,
saying, that'll be $5000." The customer paid and walked out with his
monkey.
>
> Startled, the tourist went over to the shopkeeper and said, "That was a
very expensive monkey. Why did it cost so much?"
> The shopkeeper answered, "Ah, that monkey can program in C very fast,
tight code, no bugs, well worth the money."
>
> The tourist looked at the monkey in another cage. "That one's even more
expensive! $10,000! What does it do?"
> "Oh, that one's a C++ monkey; it can manage object- oriented programming,
Visual C++, even some Java. All the really useful stuff," said the
shopkeeper.
>
> The tourist looked around for a little longer and saw a third monkey in a
cage of its own. The price tag around its neck read $50,000. He gasped to
the shopkeeper, "That one costs more than all the other put together! What
on earth does it do?"
>
> The shopkeeper replied, "Well, I haven't actually seen it doing anything,
but the other monkeys call him the project manager."

What is your obsession?

A psychiatrist was conducting a group therapy session
with five young mothers and their small children.

"You all have obsessions," he observed.

To the first mother, Mary, he said:
"You are obsessed with eating.
You've even named your daughter Candy."

He turned to the second Mum, Ann:
"Your obsession is with money.
It manifests itself in your children's names,
Penny, Goldie and Frank."

He turned to the third Mum, Joyce:
"Your obsession is alcohol.
This too shows itself in your children's names:
Brandy and Sherry.
You even called the cat, "Whisky"

He then turned to the fourth Mum June:
"Your obsession is with flowers.
Your girls are called Rose, Daphne & Poppy."

At this point, the fifth mother, Kathy, quietly got up,
took her little boy by the hand and whispered:
"Come on, Dick, this guy has no idea what he's talking about.
Let's pick up Fanny and Willy and go home."

How to become rich ? Part -1

If this question is asked to anyone, the probable answer will be that you should have a high earning job or you should be the owner of a business which should be the source of good income. But is earning good amount is the only way to get rich? Or maybe it is just one aspect of the answer to this question.

Earning good amount on regular basis is one important aspect of becoming rich; the other important aspect is to save a good amount regularly. For example, if we consider two persons X and Y, suppose X earns Rs. 30000 per month while Y earns Rs. 20000 per month, X lives his life in a lavish style and spends a lot on parties, outings, shopping while Y is a reasonable spender, he spends only when it is required, he also go for parties, outings and shopping but he has an habit of keeping in control. On an average X saves only Rs. 2000 per month while Y saves Rs. 6000 per month, so by simple mathematical calculation we can make out that in one year X will have Rs. 24000 in his saving account while Y’s account will have Rs. 72000. Despite earning more than Y, X is poorer than Y.

In simple words, saving as more important as earning and a person should be conscious about his/her expenses and should cut out any unnecessary expenses and save money.

Let us discuss some ways of saving money and becoming rich :

1)      Save electricity and keep a check on the bill : electricity should be used reasonably and keep in mind to switch off all the lights when you are leaving house and never waste electricity as it is national property. By using power in a reasonable manner you can not only save your money but you can also help your country as Saving of electricity = production of electricity .

2)      Save water: water is also national property as power and it should not be wasted as it is already in scarcity, by keeping a check on the wastage of water you should reduce your water bills as well as do your country some good.

3)      Limit petrol expenses : In India, in last two years the petrol prices have gone up by almost Rs 30/ litre, so we should also make sure that we are using our vehicles when they are necessary and if you are travelling alone in city prefer to travel by public transport or two-wheelers whose average is more than car. Cars should be used only when the whole family is travelling together.

4)      Limit junk food : prefer to eat home food as it is more healthy and cheap in comparison to junk food. Eating junk food regularly will also increase your medical expenses as they are unhygienic and unhealthy and after a time limit your digestion is not able to cope up with your unhealthy habits.

5)      Drinking habits : avoid liquor as much as possible as it is unhealthy and costly as well. The soft drinks available in market should also be avoided and you should prefer to drink fruit juices as they are both refreshing and healthy.

We will be discussing more ways of saving money and becoming rich in next part.
