Yesterday, there was all that ruckus in twitter about Rs.28,000. 10 grams of spot Gold touched that price and all the 'non-Indian' Indians, who have scorn for the 'Indian' Indian sentiment for gold were in some hurry to show a mockery of shock or surprise in every possible social media.
I was waiting to talk to my mom, who always wished one of her sons was a daughter (don't try guessing which one :P), to ask her if she still wished so :-). And when I spoke, she responded with a marked smugness "wouldn't I already have saved enough in gold already? Even at not having a daughter, the DIL's are due to get 10 sovereigns and a diamond ear-stud each, at the wedding" !
Next Nobel laureate in economics must be for the one who writes the best thesis on Indian middle-class-housewives idea of economics :D
