Credit card companies have understood one thing (as credit card influencers blow up over social media); it’s hard to make profits. Customers are farming credit card points instead of using them genuinely. The well kept secret of points farming that was a secret for a few people is now out in the open.
Funny how Millennials quietly ghosted Facebook the moment the older Gen logged on & started posting every little thing.
Now that same Gen has discovered Insta Reels and is flooding the feed.
Gen Z… the cycle is already loading. History has a funny way of repeating itself.

Indian worker Vipin Kumar has been awarded honorary citizenship by the city of Craiova, Romania, after he jumped into an icy lake and saved the life of a 5-year-old girl. 🇮🇳🇷🇴
For nearly 30 minutes, he held the child above freezing water until rescuers arrived.
This is the side of Indians the world rarely sees in headlines: courage, sacrifice, compassion and humanity.
Yet stories like this seldom receive the attention that anti-India narratives do. No coverage from Western media outlets.
As India's envoy noted, Vipin's actions embodied the spirit of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam "The World is One Family." ❤️
Nobody camped 8 days for a pocket watch.
They camped for the right to own something with an Audemars Piguet logo for $400 instead of $30,000.
AP built their brand over 50 years by making sure most people can never buy one. Waitlists. Relationships. Six figures minimum. The wall around the brand IS the brand.
Royal Pop punched a hole in that wall. $400. Walk in. Buy it.
Except so many people wanted through that hole that Dubai cancelled the launch. Liverpool called police. Bangkok had queues through entire malls at 6am. NYC had overnight camps in Times Square.
Swatch says it's not limited. They'll make millions.
And people still camped.
Because it was never about the watch. It was about standing on the other side of that wall, even for a day.
This is how pathetic & insensitive these delivery apps are now. No one to attend and keep on raising delivery time without getting concerned that we may have kids/senior citizens at home waiting. Way beyond limit of order promised time cant deliver let it be @Swiggy

🇸🇬 FASTEST PASSPORT CONTROL IN THE WORLD?
Singapore’s Changi Airport just cleared someone through passport control in 7.57 seconds.
That is basically the Formula 1 pit stop of international travel.
