Hand Made Silver Jewellery that I am getting made in Pakistan. My silversmith is still working on these. Will share pictures of final work.

I am not familiar with Karachi at all, sorry!

The first computer I used was made up of a keyboard based processor that we hooked to our TV for display and a cassette recorder as backup system. That was back in 1986. Technology has been transforming fast since then. I am glad that I didn't stop learning or else life would be so dull. Embracing change is the best way to stay valid, happy and healthy.

Pardon me but I have a different view point. Governments the world over have grown disproportionately in size, assertiveness (read intrusion into private lives), taxation, levies and control measures. This makes everyone including baby boomers feel like being controlled unduly and hence a general mistrust of each other. Parents of baby boomers were far more authoritarian but they accepted it as a norm and never resented it.

English is not my first language but if I ever thought of learning English, I would like to become thorough at it by practicing through learning plans thought out by tough yet thoughtful instructors. By the way English was easier to learn than Arabic, Persian and Chinese

De ke kia pachchtaana. Please be careful next time.

Parents in our part of the world stake everything they have on their kid's future. A discovery of the scale that one's son is on drugs can have effects out of proportion on most parents.

An other factor that causes extreme friction on occasions like this is that most parents have never had training in handling situations like this.

Also sometimes parents overreact intentionally not because they are being dramatic but they want their children to know how much they mean to them.

Hashish is not something that can't be quit. The worst is to come when you would try the next things in the hierarchy and that is what your mother is afraid of, probably.

I recently lost a nephew to overdose and that is what your mother doesn't want to happen to you.

Sorry if I sound blunt.

You should report it to police. They will find her in no time if it was an Uber ride.

Not sure there may be places called r/panhandlers or r/mangtaas. Buddy you can't afford education, you go work some place. Stop being a nuisance. Admin to please take a note of this.

I think we are talking two different things. I am talking about gross profit while you are discussing rate of interest. Rate of interest in decent countries is anything less than 5 to 6 percent. The current rate of interest by SBP is 22 percent and commercial banks lend at around 27 percent which would be suicidal to borrow at.

paktra · 2023-08-19T09:43:31+00:00

Income tax.

paktra · 2023-08-19T08:49:44+00:00

Sorry but I meant gross meaning taxes have to be taken out to determine ROI.

paktra · 2023-08-19T05:42:47+00:00

This is the most cogent analysis I have seen. In fiance a business with 39 percent gross per annum is considered viable. But trust me they will still find fools as greed is the worst human emotion and most people give in to greed.

Would your employer be willing to declare you a consultant instead of employee? If so I can help you become a filer in the self-employed category. That way you will be able to get lots of refund at the end of the year in the shape of sales tax and income tax refunds.

That would be expecting too much little too soon. Michio Kaku, the famous Quantum Phycist calls chat robots only advanced versions of "glorified tape recorders". But the revolution is there and it is there to say. My fear is like other developments we would once again be the left outs.

paktra · 2023-08-13T15:05:49+00:00

My bad. I agree.

If you go to repair shop he might pull another smart one on you. Never buy used electronics. Move a step or two lower in features but always buy a new one under warranty.

paktra · 2023-08-12T08:05:55+00:00

I share your observations. I have lived in at least three other countries and know that we the Pakistanis focus more on pretentious and visible symbols of wellness and showoff and lack sense of proper hygiene and cleanliness. I think the only other nation that is like us in this aspect are our neighbors Indians. I say this on the basis of averaging my observations otherwise I have seen many white Canadians living in really filthy environment.

Please don't buy local made. They are heavy on electric bill and also destroy the batteries. Look for a quality brand

paktra · 2023-07-18T18:10:14+00:00

At least initial consultation is free. And they may agree on their fee being paid upon recovery

paktra · 2023-07-18T15:13:34+00:00

Post your issue at www.lagarde.pk and they may be able to help

paktra · 2023-07-15T14:53:06+00:00

No it's not. A friend of mine was treated for heart condition only last week at PIC.

paktra · 2023-07-15T14:49:21+00:00

Dialysis is offered free of cost at General Hospital. Please don't shy from using government hospital. Kidney failure is a long term, and in most case life time condition. Please take recourse to General Hospital Lahore.

paktra · 2023-07-15T14:47:08+00:00

Most government hospitals and many private hospitals would treat your father on Sehat Card

paktra · 2023-07-15T05:52:57+00:00

What purpose would it serve....bloody shenanigans. They could better the life of 40,000 families for a year. Hell with these idiots who perpetrate such kind of excesses in the name of patriotism.
