Credit Crunch ,Venture capital, Value of money in hand !!

Well 6:30 pm on Last day to get my pass for Govandi Station with the concession form in my hand , A pass worth 690 bucks and Rs.680 in my wallet { Including all the Chuttas and Chillars} times are seldom so desperate ! Option 1: I go the next day ......I have to slug it out with a government employee who is least interested in helping me ; rather who derives fun seeing me caught helplessly in the technicalities of date and time ! Option 2: I forget the concession form I have to shell out a good 1200 odd Rs. ! Option 3 : I ask aditya to lend me a 10 Rs. which I promised to return by paying for rickshaw the next day !
I took the 3rd option and well by 6:45 I had brand new quarterly pass to Govandi in my hand !! Eureka !!

As all the pumped up adrenaline abt what to do and what not to ends .....my mind began to think
that note of Rs. 10 was worth Rs. 10 to aditya but for me it was much much much more than that !
That note saved me a argument wid the government employee , it saved me the mentlal tension of not having my pass and standing in que the next day , It saved me from the murderous 2nd class compartment on the morning of monday going to Kurla !!! man It was well worth 1000 bucks for me and this aint a hyperbole !

I realised why having 10 bucks in ur hand is worth a 100 in ur bank account ! Well unfortunate as I was I didnt have them so Aditya came to my rescue ......but had there been no aditya !!!
Damn I cud have given anybody 20 bucks the next day for giving me 10 today !!! thats when I realised I was ready to take a loan @ 100% interest dat too on a daily basis ! I guess thats the type of people on whom these Venture capitalist survive giving loans @ 30% interest !!! DAMN ! Thanx God for the lessons in economics and Maharashtra Education board please try and rope in such practical examples !!
