Sreesumant You really were hard working as far as your weight loss was cocerned. It is a feat to have lost no less than 60 lbs in 4 months - where there is a will there is certainly a way ! It defintely pays to cultivate great eating habits and a disciplined life .

Sreesumant I too thought so that it is good to invest in a house instead of in shares or let it lying around in my bank account.Prices have shot up beyond my imagination and I am glad I did what I did though I was skeptical at that time .Now I am thinking of buying a...

Sreesumant We do that when we feel very close to a person or when the person means a lot to us.This is fine , but , one can easily be taken for granted or taken advantage of .In my case I was a giver - my time,money,attention,love - but soon realised that there was no or...

Sreesumant Hi, So you feel that buying a house is a worthwhile proposition ! It may be so, but one has to wait for a long long time to see any results in some places.Whereas in large cities and towns the fluctuation is far more ,so also the rise in price - all the best...

Sreesumant I am not too sure about buying farm land.It needs upkeep and labor force to keep it going, and, only when that is taken care of can one expect any sort of returns.
