What’s a promise you made to yourself that you’ve actually kept? I never made promises to myself, because promises are often broken. Instead, I act directly on what I want and reach the goals.

The shares of Maruti Suzuki, bought at about $2.00 per share, are now trading above… Continue reading From rain to rise — Maruti Suzuki IPO, the purchase that proved instinct stronger than storm.

Two‑in‑one radio‑tape recorders were very popular. Sony, National‑Panasonic, and Sanyo were leading brands that people used with pride. Unfortunately, this system was slowly moved to thrash as compact disc players emerged later on. I miss the… Continue reading Missing the audio pleasure of listening to the cassette player of “70s.”
