You may think that I am crazy. You may ask "What a stupid question".
Yes, it may sound crazy but I wanna know it's value from you.
Anyway whatever may be the value it won't change. Even if you go US or UK or wherever, you may get the exchange value but it's value won't change. Do you agree with me? Yes I know you will agree. But one thing I wanna say you that It's value changes. Yes it is different for different people.I have plenty of examples to make you believe.
Once I was a child. I was doing my primary education. I asked my father to buy a toy car which costs 5 rupees. I asked him lot of times. He didn't buy. I had to cry 3-4 times when he listened me and bought it. Later it was broken by my brother for which both of us had to get punished.
One fine evening I was walking on the street with my brother. We found a 10 rupee note. We thought of spending it. We spent it whole evening. We ate whatever we liked . At last I couldn't have my dinner at night as my stomach was fully packed with the 10 rupee note.
I was going to school with my friend. He found a 50 rupee note and we fought for it as I saw it first but he picked.
Recently I had my lunch from a restaurant.The bill was 35 rupees. I paid him 50 rupees . He returned me 10 rupees and told me to take 5 rupees later as he doesn't have change. I could have gone for it the next day. But i didn't. I ignored it.
My friend was coming in the 2nd class coach of a train. It was very much crowded that he couldn't get a seat. Then he offered 100 rupees to a fellow passenger to get the seat where the person was sitting. You might have seen a person giving money to a TT which is very common on Indian trains, but what my friend did will be written in history.
I have many more examples to tell. One person will be paying 500 bucks for a silly drink whereas another person is thinking of a week's budget with the same 500.
My friend the value of money is different. It differs place to place, with the life style, with your social class etc etc.
