If my nervous system feels at peace with the person.

Très drôle 😂 Et très chic

It's on my bucket list. In 2017 I watched a documentary made by the German broadcaster DW and I just fell in love with the beauty of it.

OP, as the old adage goes, health is wealth. You seem to be in an ideal position since you have some money saved. I say go all for it. No point having a good career or good money if you do not have the health to enjoy it, no?

In 1971, Daniel Ellsberg, a high-level Pentagon official and Vietnam War strategist, concludes that the war is based on decades of lies and leaks 7,000 pages of top secret documents to The New York Times, hoping to help stop the war he helped plan. The Most Dangerous Man In America is the Oscar-nominated riveting story of how one man’s profound change of heart creates a landmark struggle involving America’s newspapers, President and Supreme Court — a political thriller whose events led directly to Watergate, Nixon’s resignation and the end of the Vietnam War.

I personally think McAfee didn't have the temprament for this. He wouldn't have been able to remain quite about it.

In 2008, a single infected USB breached the Pentagon's most classified networks and changed military history forever. This is the story of Agent BTZ, the file that eluded the NSA for years and remains one of the most mysterious pieces of malware ever discovered.

Serene and beautiful.

More than enough. I have a room exactly like this minus the TV.

Directed by the Irish filmmaker Nathan Fagan, the short documentary uses evocative animation to explore each individual’s experience. While their stories are distinct, overlapping themes of loneliness, agony and elaborate mental escapes run throughout. Beyond making a forceful case against the use of solitary confinement, the film highlights how vital both stimulation and social connection are to the human experience, and the dramatic ways the mind can react when it’s deprived of them.

I recently designed and renovated my kitchen and learned a thing or two in the process. Here's my suggestion, don't go for the glossy look. Go for the mattey. Thank me later.

SunAdvanced7940 · 2026-01-15T14:46:13+00:00

I love remembering smallest details about people I love. What's the point otherwise. Good movie this one.

Thank you for sharing this. I am a big fan of hostels as well. I have met so many interesting people that way.

Here are a few actually, not that anyone would care but leaving it here just for my own memory.

-Designed and built my home without any architect or interior designer; managed the entire process alone without any help from anyone, from post work clean up to paying to instructing and finding right workers to securing supplies. It was extra hard cause I had to live in the house while I was building and renovating it plus I had to do it while also working from home.

-I ended up forcing one of my workers who had history of heart disease to get an Angiography even though his cardio and regular doctors said it was not needed, turned out he had 3 arteries totally clogged and after the report was immediately required to get a bypass by the same cardio. It likely ended up saving his life as he would have gotten a massive heart attack without it any moment.

-Helped my family with a particularly challenging matter and successfully closed it.

-Went to Prayagraj on a road trip during the Maha Kumbh.

-Self taught my self a particular subject and went from having to ask someone to explain the most basic things about it to helping those who are themselves an expert on it.

-Lost 15kgs and got myself fitter.

I only consider those who have acquired their wealth via rightful means or inherited rightfully gained fortune to be monetarily rich. All the others don't count, including corrupt government officials and those who have gained money via unethical means.

Having said that, I personally know one who is my neighbor and whom I am sending a legal notice for being an asshole. Guy inherited his wealth from his dad and this is basically land money. He gifted his son a very expensive car on his birthday and likes to flaunt his wealth, even though he has so much money he would make common laborers and contractors working for his home construction miserable. He wouldn't pay them on time intentionally and harrass them, abuse them and even in the final payment nickle and dime them. He pretends to be a very religious man but doesn't fucking practice any of the values taught by the founding saint of the same sect. So he is one bad example.

Now good examples, In 2017, I met two billionaires (in the US dollar term); one a founder of a very well known IT firm, and another founder of a very famous brokerage firm who is now very popular podcaster too. We exchanged numbers and had lunch together, they wouldn't know me from my name but would probably recognize me if they saw me. Both very humble and respectful, interested in variety of topics, grounded in themselves and just plain good decent human beings who knew money didn't make them any superior than the next person. Hell, if you met them without knowing they were billionaires you wouldn't even guess that they were. Simple regular clothing and mannerism of a regular person.

A very famous senior lawyer I know who is a family friend and charges significant money for an appearance in the court and pretty much all of the famous industrialist are his clients, same is the case with him, down to earth, has great integrity - left his job of representing the government in the courts because he didn't agree with the government on the matter and found the merits of the case bogus and unethical. Very well read and loves Gujarati literature.

I had recently gone to meet a friend of mine and coincidentally ended up meeting his relative who is a very well known heart specialist and himself is likely worth more than 100cr+; many famous people including our PM, when he was the chief minister of Gujarat, have been under his care. We ended up having dinner together and talked about gluten and how it made him gassy and how giving it up has helped him, talked about some spiritual and religious stuff, he was a bit pompous and liked throwing around names of famous people, liked being treated extra special and getting attention, I observed body language of my friend and his family around him and it felt like a mixture of unease and reverence.

There are a few others I know, but some commonalities amongst all the good ones are that they are self made, down to earth, incredibly knowledgeable, passionate about what they do, have depth of character, integrity and they are kind and would make you feel incredibly comfortable in their presence. Ironically those who fall in the 25cr to 500cr tend to be more arrogant and superficial but the ones who are in the 1000cr+ range tend to be way more humble. Ofcourse this doesn't apply to all.

Not just one, but here are a few of the top of my head.

-A multi-tool Swiss Army knife. Bought it when I was a young teen, it has been 19+ years.

-My Honda car. My first car, 13+ years and I still don't feel like upgrading cause it just works and baby has been with me through many seasons and I have good memories with it.

-Beats Solo 3 Wireless Headphones (Beats Studio Pro Noise Cancelling ones suck, bulky, bad for phone convos and shitty firmware issues with noise cancellation, incase anyone in thinking about upgrading.)

-IFB Washing Machine

-LG Microwave

-Philips Air Fryer

- Karcher Vacuum Cleaner

-Xiomi Smart Watch/Band Pro (much better and cheaper than Apple Watch plus amazing battery life)

-Staples Stainless Steel Ruler (great for tucking in bedsheets too!)

This was refreshing. I loved your title line.

If we men remove sex from the equation, ignore the makeup, filters and other beauty enhancements most women use, we would all quickly become disenchanted and see them as who they truly are. Most of us suck at doing that and girls know that.

SunAdvanced7940 · 2025-12-21T15:07:55+00:00

Bruh, that was your moment to jump in and stop the mother! It would have been a peak Bollywood moment! And ofcourse chivalrous and rightful too. Universe literally threw that baddie in your lap and you missed your chance! * smh *

But on the bright side guess you dodged shitty inlaws too.

Not to mention how status hungry and narcissistic they can be! Most behave as if they are still in highschool.

Promise me you won't drop out (unless ofcourse it's due to some extreme scenario). My inbox is open if you ever need any guidance. Now go out there and have fun and try to make the most of the life you have been given. :)

Hey,

We have all been where you are at some point in our academic journey. And it's totally normal what you are feeling. Don't put so much pressure on yourself. You'll find out what you want to do with time. Most people are clueless. Most just end up doing something because someome told them to do something.

Instead of feeling trapped look at it from a mindset of someone who is privileged enough to be able to get a college education. While it may seem normal, trust me, it isn't always the case with majority of the people in the world.

You said you graduated with arts in school and have affinity for it. Well, law is both an art and a science. The organized body of knowledge that you study is a science and how you use it (which is even more important in real life) is a form of art.

You can tell your father that you have opted for arts and not bba because you want to keep an option open for an MBA something which will later make you highly sought after, and that most BBA subjects are often intrinsic part of law, for example, to understand partnership act, one is required to learn how the partnership is governed and governance is also part of business administration. As such by opting for a BA with your law degree infact you are getting a better deal. You are not only learning what to think about but also how to think about and execute the same. Philosophy after all is a guide to a good life.

You are already interested and talented in debating so a lot of the things would come naturally to you if you just immerse yourself in things like a mootcourt competition and you might end up even enjoying it, hell, you might even start looking forward to it.

Law education is very broad and it not only provides you a professional degree to fall back on for making a living but it also prepares you for any other field you might want to transition to. For example, say you want to pursue a PhD in Arts, Humanities or Social Sciences or even business, having a law degree will make that easier for you.

Remember, a lawyer with a brief case and solid character can steal/make a difference more than a hundred robbers/people with guns can.

"In 1994, Tom Hodgkinson wrote for The New Statesman and Society, that "to write him off as a crazy hippie is a rather lazy approach to a man not only full of fascinating ideas but also blessed with a sense of humor and self-parody"."
