myth of universal home ownership

nations which promote holy grail of universal home ownership are in doldrums. On the other hand, in Germany most people just rent, they don't own.


Germans are smart.

Most Europeans do not own houses and they rent their homes from private entities. Their lives are also more unstable than those of Indians and Americans.

Two observations can be made from this development ............

1. These real estate units are back in demand because the super rich want to park their black money in a truly high growth asset or assets.

And ............

2. What is the point of buying and living in an uber luxurious apartment, at least in Mumbai, when the only view you get from any of its windows is people of UP and Bihar trying fertilize vacant parcels of public land with their night s0il?!

Which would be a Billion times better than seeing a UP or Bihar man perform his "Squeezing-a-tooth-paste" act every morning from your uber luxurious Mumbai apartment!

10 Lacks = 1 Million

1000 Million = 1 Billion

Rs.10,000 Lacks = 1 Billion Rs.

Rs.6,10,000 Lacks = 1 Billion $!

In my opinion the definition of millionaire/ billionaire is one who has
1. million/ billion with him
2. The guts to invest it
3. The capability to get it back with profit.

But most people think if some one is having 10 lac then he is millionaire!!!!

Luxury Homes
by joseph on Sep 10, 2014 02:32 PM  | Hide replies

Let the billionaires buy super luxury houses of any magnitude, it is the govt's duty to see that the ordinary people get budget homes suiting to their pocket. It is yet to be seen how the PM is going to implement his ideas. If the govt does not bother to give affordable houses to the lower segment of the population, ok elections will come after five years and they will meet the same fate of UPA, whose main philosophy was promises! Everybody knows that billionaires are ever increasing,it is because of the govts inability to stop them from looting the exchequer at the cost of the ordinary people of India. If it goes unchecked, situation may change in India, and Jasmine revolution may come back, because people have a limit to tolerate. Let the rich enjoy, but not at the cost of ordinary people. The ordinary people should have a reasonably well living condition.
