I want to start a thread which lists out fun things to do at an airport. Would appreciate any inputs - with only one caveat - the suggestions have to be specific to the location and not some generalised stuff applicable to all airports.

@LuckyInvest_AK Here's another learning - While the increase in the number of cargo vehicles might be good for the Economy's health, overtaking from the left is injurious to your health. 😉

The stock market transfers wealth from the less informed to the more. It takes a little time. But trust me. Mr Market is not your friend. He acts like it enough to draw you in. Even fall in love. And then destroys you. Be careful.

Hi Twitter, having spent a lot of time on @googleearth, I've built up a collection art visible from space. I'd like to share some of my favs with you all in this thread 🛰️🎨

In economics we don't say "I love you", we say " I will always love you, ceteris paribus" and I think that's beautiful.

@BabasahebsSikh Really? You want to put this out on a public forum and risk being accused of plagiarism in your application process....I would urge you to be careful.

@myvaluepicks While we are at it why don't we compare the price of BMW/ Mercedes/ Audi to Maruti Alto...

I’m beginning to think “hindsight is 2020” was some kind of message from a future time traveler that we all misunderstood.

Arabia is the birthplace of Islam, but was also home to a diverse set of religious beliefs including a host of deities worshipped by various tribes.

@LuckyInvest_AK @ramanmann1974 I think it would be Utopian to think that lower taxes on new manufacturing industries would lead to a surge in manufacturing industry without addressing the elephant in the room - labour laws, archaic factories, act, lack of infrastructure, etc.

Blue Apron IPO'd in June 2017 at a $2bn valuation

Yesterday, it closed at a stock price of $9.01, representing a market cap of just under $120mm

What happened and what can we learn?

GREAT SPEECHES

I spent over a year searching for insightful speeches that are not widely known.

Then, I created transcripts for each. As far as I know, this is the only spot on the web where you can find them all in one place.

What would you add?

@LuckyInvest_AK @BloombergQuint The urban population was happy with the low CPI and thought that the rural distress wouldn't affect them.....and now it has come back to bite them in their backside!

[Icarus @icarushubris]

@LuckyInvest_AK @BloombergQuint I think the origin of this mess lies in the rural distress caused by the government's reluctance to increase msp of farm produce combined with the drought like conditions in the past years. Rural wages have not increased either......
