Does passion exists? Yes it does, and will find out how.

If you wanna succeed you need to follow your passion. That's what most of the times we hear. But how does one find his passion in the first place? I think I never heard anyone/anything talking about the latter topic. (For every person the following are imp if the person really wanna live like a real person) I saw a video telling viewers that don't follow passion but follow the thing you are good at. It seems extremely thoughtful to me. One of the examples he mentioned was: Ex: Let's say you are so passionate about singing but you failed miserably on your first stage performance and think you are a failure. What that video saying instead of thinking of passion just find out where you are good and go on with it. The video says there is nothing like passion and convinces myself that passion doesn't exist(Until I find out one of mine). Points to be taken: This video tells us that you need to know where you are good at even though you are not passionate(your persp...

2008 Financial crisis

Short answer: Commercial banks lent housing loans to people who then pay monthly instalments, then these commercial banks sold mortgages to investment bankers who had lots of money with them. Now they have mortgages with them and receiving monthly instalments from people who took loans. They now did some finance stuff and created "collateralized debt obligation(CDO)" which were like bonds with a fancy name. They cut it into 3 pieces with low risk, medium risk, high-risk bonds. Credit rating companies gave thumbs up and gave AAA, BBB and no rating respectively to 3 types of bonds. These investment banks fill the boxes(bonds) with the money they get from monthly instalments. Now they sold these CDO's to private investors who thought these bonds are less risky and had good credit ratings too. Till now everything is fine!! BTW these investors bought some outsider bonds because that time US federal bank interest rate was just 1%.  People were willing to take house loans b...

Comparison of Hyd and Bangalore ORR's

Just a comparion between Hyd and Bangalore ring roads by considering their fulfilment of purposes. Hyd                                                       It's range approximately from the center of city is 20 - 40 km.   City didn't spread enough to touch ORR yet at almost all the places. West side may touch first, next south west and north west. East, South, North parts of the city are long way to go to touch ORR.  Pros: Whole city is inside the ORR and there is plenty of room for city to develop inside the ORR. It's very good for future of the city.  Since it is so far from the city you need not to cross it so often which reduces the traffic at intersections points.  City will have enough space inside the city to build new roads.  You can travel from eastern most point to western most point which is around 60...
