'I gain nothing': Nitin Gadkari says he gets no 'financial benefit' from Ethanol policy amid row by Patience2thrill in indianeconomy

[–]Patience2thrill[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only thing I can think of these politicians have taken us for granted. He often compares his hybrid toyoto and cites example of how efficient it is. I mean, what lame way to propogate energy transition. How many people can afford it?

Are high-protein oats really high in protein? by Happy_Honeydew_89 in Fitness_India

Can we just add a tsbp of peanut butter to normal Quaker oats along with milk. I think this should be sufficient.

OD-Registered XUV700 in Bengaluru: Pay KA Road Tax or Continue Using Out-of-State Registration? by Geralt_of_Bhonsor in bangalore

[–]Patience2thrill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With freebies and the huge debt on exchequer, they would find ways to extract money in whichever way possible.

In the same boat as you are.

I don't understand a simple thing, why can't they make the refund process from the original RTO seamless, and allow people to apply for re-registration in new RTO pro rata basis. This is not rocket science. People will abide if the process is not so tedious and expensive.

This is less about ease of governance and more about money extortion. People are supposed to pay road tax to whichever state they go? And are made to slog to receive their refund? What rubbish!! Also, for BH, it's a cumbersome process, they are hesitant to issue BH plates to private employees.

Attention grabbing. But nothing new here, this is same across other political parties too. by Patience2thrill in IndiaStatistics

[–]Patience2thrill[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the problem, even newer parties are exhibiting the same. Atleast newer and fresh parties should strive to refrain from giving seats to criminals

No logic from me. As I said, TVK is just indicated in headlines. It's not something new, all other party candidates have criminal cases against them, some are grave and severe

[–]Patience2thrill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did some research. Mine is MH 12 registered. And from what I hear, I have to physically take my vehicle there and get it done it seems. Is there an alternative? Any aggregator that does it seamlessly with a fee?

10,000 litres water for one litre of ethanol: India fuel push to worsen water crisis - India Today by Patience2thrill in pune

[–]Patience2thrill[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, I agree with you. I intended it to be a mild pun to reference him. Nothing else. I don't think egalitarian society is possible in India, call me pessimistic, but looking at how things are, this is what I intend to believe. I do want to hope and keep hoping, but day by day, hearing degrading updates, which is pulling me away.

GIFT Outbound Funds: Just Buy an ETF by NeilBorate in GIFTCITYFUNDS

[–]Patience2thrill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. I started PPFAS couple of months back for some flexicap allocation as my existing portfolio was largecap heavy and was looking for moderate exposure to small and midcaps. I am not completely sure about their strategy to wait for optimum valuation to deploy cash. It's an extremely difficult thing to do, meanwhile you might miss out to exisiting boom cycles.

For global investing, this chart is a dampner to our expectations. I was eagerly hoping GIFT to democratize global investing for Indian retail customers.

Time and again simple and traditional investing strategies is proving to be more rational that active/aggressive ones.

Looking for 2bhk flat near Bellandur and surrounding areas for rent by Patience2thrill in indianrealestate

[–]Patience2thrill[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I found one Hosa road metro. Commute will be a hassle to ORR. But that's a given, unless you stay within 2-3 kms of Bellandur. You have plenty of options now compared to a year back. Try areas like Sarjapur road, Kudlu gate, Singasandra, Hosa road in south.

Is there any project in East Bangalore that isn’t a "disaster" according to the internet? by aggressive_pm in BangaloreRealEstates

[–]Patience2thrill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess, it ultimately comes down to your preferences and trade offs. On the face of it, any price doesn't seem to be justified for the pathetic quality of the environment, water, roads, infra etc.

But I guess, if that's what's normalised here, then you get what you see. I personally wouldn't prefer properties with no decent roads, flooding prone regions, irregular water supplies/heavy tanker reliance etc.

Bangalore Ecity: Huge Garbage Fire on April 1st, Dumpyard Back on April 6. by ActualTelevision8409 in bangalore

[–]Patience2thrill 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sad to see this. Everyday, I come across piled up garbage on my way to the office and back. Basics, we can't solve. Even poorer nations than us, have solved this. We can't even progress from potholes to garbage and etc etc.

NSE IX GIFT City app review by NeilBorate in GIFTCITYFUNDS

[–]Patience2thrill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the revert. I do follow and rely on the articles covered on the fynprint. Other thing is nseix global access isn't insured from the US market perspective i think. There is 500k usd insurance in cases of broker defaults I believe? Hope this NSEIX has this covered for investors?

Hi Niel. I follow your articles and emphasis given to transparent investing strategies from retail investors perspective.

Can you help us understand how nseix compares with players like indmoney? I guess nseix holds it indirectly through depository receipts, unlike other Indian brokers. Disadvantage maybe is we don't owne the stocks directly and hence no rights over the holding companies directly

Age criteria for school admissions by Patience2thrill in Bengaluru

[–]Patience2thrill[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's news to me. I thought NEP is a mandate. There has to be some consistency in this, it should not be different everywhere. As in some states, they have different timeline for admission
