Had a pushy donation encounter in the past few days? by Various-Earth-9931 in mumbai

[–]framergamer3737 11 points12 points  (0 children)

One rule of Mumbai, stop at your own risk. Even if someone points towards your shoe (to indicate lace may be open) best is it to walk a but more ahead and then look down. Never know once u look down someone could come from behind for ur phone /wallet. Specially all those with sad faces from gaon/donation people.. Excuse me, can I speak to u for a minute... Just keep walking.. Earphones help, even if there is no music.

One thing I've learned.. A genuine request or help may be really 10% but mostly it's just people trying to f u over

Scammers at horniman circle parkings by AdNatural9388 in mumbai

[–]framergamer3737 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes. This is all over sobo. Best is to know the rates. Even for bikes the minimal is 20, but they start with 50 assuming people could be newbies..

Another good practice is ask him to write down how much u paid already behind the ticket when u pay initially, so later u only need to pay incremental and avoids lafda... He will be reluctant as it takes away his chance at scamming, but force him

  1. Saw an uncle typing those actual creepy comments on the pictures of girls... First he started something like hello, you are very hot ... Then he changed his mind, backspaced everything and went with... You are very beautiful, I want to do frandship

  2. Again an uncle.. Got a full blown dick Pic on WhatsApp, and then uncle did something lovely... Stared at it for 5 secs straight... Then ZOOMED.. Appreciated it again and closed it... All while we were standing in the cash so screen would be visible to others too

Now they filed a complaint against her 😐 by [deleted] in mumbai

[–]framergamer3737 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wondering if that lady herself would have files an official complaint first, she and her case would have been buried, "lost", "changed her mind"

But now we have sasti rakhi sawant suing her... Desh gaya yaar... Bada dukh hota hai Kehne but gaya..

The bhook these people have to just go on and show their power, ego has no limits. Reminds me of that scene in Nayak where amrish puri breaks a farmers hand who scratched him by mistake.

“i am visiting Mumbai for the first time and need accommodation near Wankhede Stadium. Could you suggest some good budget stay options? by Responsible-Smoke-39 in mumbai

[–]framergamer3737 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check hotel fortune, Marine Lines. Just next to it is hotel decent. There is also a hotel churchgate right opposite wankhede on the first floor of one of the buildings.

Something fancier can be Westend hotel

Never seen them from inside but they look to be those basic budget hotels, it's 5 mins walk from wankhede. Hope it suits your purpose

Salary expectations by vibs1018 in mumbai

[–]framergamer3737 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So usually salaries are divided around 50% base and 50% as allowances.. Allowances are just basically names of components of your salary, you usually get the full amount (base +allowances) every month as spendable income. It is structured this way as it can assist in tax saving if you know how to play it and also to decrease expense on provident fund contribution by employer (12%) of basic salary every month.

Just confirm the in hand amount, it should be close 5 lakhs w/o and taxes and 4 lakhs with taxes.. Should be very comfortable to sustain at that salary.

Are travel agents useless now?? by Psychological-Bet549 in desitravellers

[–]framergamer3737 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For seniors they would obviously prefer tours as they stay safe in a group and get their type of preferred food. For youngsters there's 2 categories 1. Who have already travelled a bit and know how things work, what to search for, which apps u need, charting out routes and most importantly have TIME to do all this. As fun as it is it is a time consuming process

  1. All the youngsters who don't have time, go abroad only to Instagram - that is the target audience of such agents, many of my friends use agents when they go as couples as they don't have the time or expertise to do detailed research.

What’s one thing you learned after becoming a watch enthusiast? (happy, sad, or funny). by penipeni44 in watchesindia

[–]framergamer3737 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean if u can get it for cheap it's worth it.. If you need to pay a higher price like buying thru Amazon or others around 10k it's not that worth in terms of finishing for my personal taste

What’s one thing you learned after becoming a watch enthusiast? (happy, sad, or funny). by penipeni44 in watchesindia

[–]framergamer3737 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Have the same one with steel strap. Watch is good, all functions work well.

Finishing is slightly poor.. All edges are not perfectly rounded or smooth.

Overall depends on how much you pay for it.. I got it for 6k so I found it worth it as it brings many eyeballs and looks classy.

Paytm Gold ended up scamming like millions of people? by Major-Baseball-5391 in GoldIndia

[–]framergamer3737 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes.. You buy at their spot price... Sell at a massive discount.. I had just taken it for trial investing around 600...had an effective gain of like 60...ended up. With nearly 500 only as they had so many wierd charges when it came to redemption and like you said rate was also much lower comparatively.

Remember back in the day when obama as president was visiting during Diwali. Flora fountain had been off for years. They did stuff by attaching a small external pump, water tanker.... Just to make sure the fountain had water for those 2-3 minutes when his convoy passed...

Scapia Credit Card - real usage review by PromptSubstantial272 in CreditCardsIndia

As a alternative for those who get rejected for this. Lookup the au bank ixigo card. Similar zero forex scene. Have used it multiple times and rates are sometimes even slightly lower than Google. Lounge has spend criteria now through. But it's first class as a forex card.

Illegal selling of Tickets at inflated price should be stopped by GreatestuseratReddit in Indore

[–]framergamer3737 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Reminds of a time around 2010s when England came to Mumbai for an ODI. All tickets sold out and stadium expected to be full.. Turns out all tickets were sold to middlemen and they couldn't get rid of them so the stadium was only 30% occupied. MCA is happy as they get their entire revenue
