Lot Of Ways To make Money


Many billionaires around,

Are newly found,

As they rise up  ,

In wealth and status

They lose  out,

In faith and repute.

 

 


The nouveau rich seen across,

Are a tribe in a toss,

Since they grow up like a creeper,

Climbing up in a  startle

Eating out the  tree  deeper.

 

 


The  much loaded man down,

Walks stately with an imaginary crown,

Exhibiting his celebrated  grandeur,

Accumulated through a plunder,

Though not direct but through insider trading,

Amassing a  heavy fortune  in  hedge funding.

The executive  rides in a Mercedes,

Gesturing an  elaborate precedence,

With  unlimited authority and arrogance,

Pulling out the cream from the pie,

Then illustrate a sincere plough through,

Provoking  a  sobbing cry.

 

 


The politician flies in a charter,

Motioning a serious barter,

With the nations  poor and developing,

Addressing a series of conventions,

By eliciting and enumerating the potholes,

In the system of renovations..

 

 


Bail outs are for the economies,

To come out of the ignominious,

But  they serve the statesmen,

Their kinsmen and businessmen,

To tug and tug  and pull and pull  the package,

Lo!Little do we know of making money

Revolution Of Gold


Revolutions  are so  many,

Which break the  thicket   dreary

By committing deeds  bloody,

By  insinuating speeches  fiery,

Resulting in  deadly eventuality.

 

 

The Yellow metal soberly,

Has turned the stones briskly,

By  rising gradually ,

To shoot up suddenly,

In a  buzzing move   graphically,

To an unassuming level sporadically.

 

 

Revolutions have  an end,

As they have a set trend,

Which is exhibited  in a brand,

Of high  vibrancy and demand,

While slowly the tension disbands,

Settling to  a subdued  strand

 

 

 

Will the same behaviour be  seen?

In the golden sheen.

Which emits an opulence  clean,

Leading to a grand mean,

Masquerading a royal   queen,

Resigning to a  modest lean.

 

 

 

Today it races ahead,

Tomorrow it will  behead,

But the thirst will spearhead ,

A  demanding   price spread ,

Soliciting a tumultuous  thread,

That of  an imposing  surge dread

Financial Security.


Security ,whatever it may be.

It is mortal’s chief enemy,

Quoth the bard Shakespeare,

Which sounds a genuine gear.

 

 

Macbeth’s lust  for power,

Made him work up a cover,

To   anoint himself,

As supreme self.

 

His abnormal desire,

Pushed him to the mire,

Making him a defunct puppet,

Dancing to his wife’s  trumpet.

 

Midas love for gold,

Is narrated to the fold,

He wished for the metal,

In all things his hands settle.

 

 

His extraordinary craving,

Found him in a most stupefying,

Post of turning all things go;d,

Inclusive of his child behold.

 

 

 

Man’s fear in finding,

A safe haven  binding,

To invest  the hard-earned  income

In a profitable  venture  whole some.

 

 

His  deliberation finds him.

In a state of  apprehension grim,

Sending him to seek security,

In every nook and corner gritty.

 

Unlike Macbeth the  usurper,,

Nor  like Midas , the referer,

This ordinary Man, the humble,

Should achieve his target simple.

Sonnet on Inflation


September saw a rise,

Of unexpected highs ,

In gold , silver and stocks,

Demanding a  courageous pluck,

To compromise  with the unforeseen luck

The trend  kept the mind in fear,

While the heart went near,

The  expensive luminosity,

The brightness of the metal  is  great,

In terms of movement,

The surging is crucifying,

In relation to buying,

Leaving us in  tight corners,

Making us   loathsome  borrowers.

An Eye For Money


True, Midas like still exist,

Really,Midas touch still remains,

Right,Midas greed still list,

As Midas tale gets a twist.




When lure for money is invasive,

Love for it is decisive,

Excess money  is persuasive

Creating a forlorn impressive


As the desire to hoard is great,

There emits a  craving so  crazy,

which  lets  out an appetite,

Beyond normal respite.


It is an insatiable  avarice,

which is an unyielding instinct,

It is  a  longing amorous,

which  is a unsavouring  grace.


Ever since   the lust  for currency,

Has attained   biblical    heights

Ensuring  intoxicating  rights

Which is an eye for money.

Markets At A Glance


It is amusing to read the market trends.

Yesterday,

The market was up.

The Euro gained.

The dollar lost its value

Gold  soared

Oil plunged.

 

Today,

Markets  are not steady.

There is little suspicion about greek rescue.

Dollar gains against Euro.

Gold falls.

Oil tumbles.

 

What is it going to be tomorrow?

Again,

It will  be what it was a day ago.

It is so simple ,as all that.

Plunderers Of A Nation


 

A nation, rich in heritage, high in culture, alarmingly bounteous in wealth, was plundered by the Mughals ,followed by the British  to a large extent.

The Dutch, French and Portuguese also added up their wealth by usurping the resources of this ancient nation.

This particular  country, after having been enslaved by the British Raj, who left the country in tatters in 1947, has made a tremendous recovery.

Its wounds have been healed.

Its emptied treasury is being filled up.

Its drained intelligence is getting a face lift.It has taken nearly six decades to come out of the dark.

Etching and eking, sweltering and sweating , the Indian subcontinent has emerged as a powerful economy.

What an ordeal it had to face.!!

 

The new nation, the great United States of America, is in a dire league.

The country ,known for its affluence, wealth and dominance, is curling under the economic depression.

The melt down, which had cast a doom, is after long perusal and deliberation ,looks to be man-made.

To be precise,  it is much so, created by fat cats .

These fat cats include pot-bellied businessmen and big greedy politicians.

Their suspicious transactions covered by synthetics and cosmetics have driven the powerful economy to the streets.

The loathsome defects and selfish desires have forced a collapse.

The nation is torn, is bleeding, yet certain conspiracy still lingers.

The regulators take them to the court.

 Goldman sachs , concisely to get out ofe the long drawn procedures,has opted to pay fine.

It has been fined heavily.

Goldman with tight lips has accepted to pay the exorbitant penalty.

Why ? and How?

The political bureau, the economic research would not be able to disclose the manipulations, as most of the top people are involved.

In the course, the great U.S has been plundered, has been looted,not in a literal manner, but in a most stylistic tactful  move.

It is theft,blatant robbery.

It is ruthless and sacrilegious.

Where are you Gold?


Where are you?

I am,

Mostly in the north.

Mostly in high altitudes,

Mostly in soaring platitudes

Mostly out of reach.

 

 

Where can I see you?

I am,

Mostly in paper,

Mostly in commodities market,

Mostly in online trading,

Mostly beyond hold.

 

 

 

 

How can I get you?

I am,

Mostly not trackable,

Mostly not reachable,

Mostly not  detectable.,

Mostly  a mirage.

 

 

 

 

Oh! oh! Oh!

I am,

Mostly the safe haven,

Mostly the secured asset,

Mostly the pride possession,

Mostly the greatest of all.

Interest


The word interest has acquired interesting connotations.

Interest holds the liking to a subject-reading, writing , watching etc.

Interest also has a gripping significance in business and commerce.

The rate of interest is what we are talking about.

How did this word interest receive such a meaning in economy?,is my pressing suspicion.

Interest has a pleasant meaning.

That which forces you to get involved  is interest.

This is the most likely definition for the word.

Its induction in business, particularly in money lending activity must have been an ambiguous proposition.

Letting out money ,is itself a sin.

Collecting interest at the rate of percentages like 36% ,24%. 18% so on and so forth , is a severe transgression.

If you want to help your friends lend them money .

Then if they are willing to repay ,( they should, otherwise they are committing a crime,)accept the amount without any addition or multiplication.

This is true humanitarian approach.

On the contrary ,people lend money for interest , and get rich by the accumulation of interest.

They take compound interest , which is highly risky and  is a damn merciless action.

This inhuman activity might seem to be remunerative financially, but the mental ablutions are quiet extraordinary .

The revenue thus earned is highly immoral and callous.

But that appears the only way to make easy money , without facing loss, as the money lent has a material security with a lender.

We should find a new word  in English as a substitute to interest, when it comes in reference to financial output.

The Chequered Economy


The fluctuations in the market lead to an unrestricted peril.

The  frequent policy changes by the Banks add to the misery.

Small pricks  like hike in the interest rate to a trivial.25% causes a meningitis trauma in the Wall  Street.

Tiny piercings like warm welcome to the Dalai Lama in the white House annoys China, who sells its investment in U.S.bonds.

The nuclear armament  strength displayed by Iran angers U.S.

This squabbles sound like a  fight in the street corners.

The hub and din in the streets cause a  fumigation, that lead to massive burial of the vitality.

It is the trivia that scores over the essential.

A similar pattern is detected in the modern economy.

The policies do not hamper progress.

It is the controversies that proclaim scorn.

While scoffing over mundane issues , we lose track of the  eminence which  sinks into oblivion leaving the economy in utter  disruption.

The discomfiture exhibited in the economy parades a fictitious perception

There seems a high jump at times.

There occurs a dismal fall at times.

These extremes bring about a disgust that  pervades the whole ensemble.

Uncertainties ,gloom, disappointment and dejection  encircle the stratosphere.

When are we going to see radiance?
