I lived in a place where each family ocupied with farming.  And at my location farmers never decide price of their produce but middlman,  retailers,  big merchants or government. So I was not aware of the term called profit untill I crossed my 20. I was shocked when I first time knew profit. How can we take higher price than actual? I found it unethical.  But I still believed that world is full of wise people and they have made the thing called business and profit, so it must be proper. It was hard to grasp but somehow forcefully I accepted. Also, I was under process to know the world better. I was taught that for survival on the earth we all have to earn money. Earning money and gain prosperity is goal.  And you are more prosperous when you get more profit from your business.

Rain of Gold Coins !

There is an old story in which a person suffered from lack of money tries to please the God and he was successful doing it. God appears to him and asked him the purpose. He asked to have rain of Gold Coins for his personal prosperity. God agrees and blessed him for that. Shower of Gold Coins started in his house. He collected as many coins as he can but when gold coins keep raining beyond his capacity to hold or gather them, he informed his relatives; all of his relatives gathered all those. Even then there was a rain of gold coins so he informed to his village people. Even rain was continued so long, many other village people gathered the gold coins, too.

My thoughts to problem solver ( Meet Up ) group.

After being part of the group, I wish I can contribute what I can. Any activity starts with brainstorming, analysis and plan for work to be done. So for that part I like to put few words here. This is a group of problem solver.  Do we want to solve problems of our own or want to address others problem as well? Problems can be categorized in 3 levels. 1) Very personal problems. i) Neighbour shouts or plays music on loud voice. ii) I may have particular health issue.

It affects our local or personal well being I mean it creates local or personal problems. Such kind of problems
