UnBalanced by Sheets
If not all, some of you would have an idea about Balance Sheets. And it is these Balance Shits (Oops, sheets)
, that are keeping me busy these days. When I go for the right side of the sheet, the left topples over. And when I go for the left side, the right falls apart. A famous joke regarding balance sheets makes a lot more sense now.
On the left side, there is nothing right, and on the right side, there is nothing left!
- Balanced Shit
For the record, I inform my readers that I am not devoting my entire time to my financial blog (link). Rather I have started with my post-graduate studies in Mumbai. And this blog, after surviving for more than 2 years in the dry heat of Rajasthan, is now being completely drenched (almost everyday) in Mumbai’s irrationally exuberant rains!
Coming back to myself, a similar change happened a few years back (2008) in my life (with tons of soup and tea). At that time, I moved from college to corporate life. And now, after re-entering my college life, I am unlearning a lot of things I picked up during the last 3 years.
And by the way, Mumbai is gorgeous…

you may like to know that the first time this joke was heard was in Italy shortly after Pacioli invented double entry bookkeeping at the end of the the 15th century.
