Father: "I want you to marry a girl of my choice."

Son: "I will choose my own bride!"

Father: "But the girl is Bill Gates's daughter."

Son: "Well, in that case... ok."

Next - Father approaches Bill Gates.

Father: "I have a husband for your daughter."

Bill Gates: "But my daughter is too young to marry!"

Father: "But this young man is a vice-president of the World Bank."

Bill Gates: "Ah, in that case... ok."

Finally, Father goes to see the president of the World Bank.

Father: "I have a young man to be recommended as a vice-president."

President: "But I already have more vice-presidents than I need!"

Father: "But this young man is Bill Gates's son-in-law."

President: "Ah, in that case... ok."

This is how business is done!! Moral: Even if you have nothing, you can get anything. But your attitude should be positive. Think positive.

Very interesting and correct. The practical world operates on "he who pays the piper calls the tune" and on the basis of "which side your bread is buttered - na baap bada na bhaiya, sabse bada rupaiya." Reminds me of a poem that I had written twenty years back. Nobody would mind being Mr. Gates' Ghar Jamai. I actually know someone who employed this very successfully to woo the daughter of a top shot. Maybe someday, this shall be a part of formal education. Who knows?

Very practical presentation. Excellent.
