friends, I used to sleep in bed & think about myself that what will happen if i don't earn? Once I had finished my savings with friends by myself in different ways. one night in the bed, I was calcullating that how much money I had left to spend, I came to final stage, i just have 472 rupees. Than I thought to search for a job. Friends, you can understand that for a fresher in job, how it was difficult? As days passed I couldn't manage any job & had an empty pocket. I had to roam around from one place to other. I have asked my relatives, friends & known one to help me with some money. I had several times told them that if I get job, I'll return them their money. But I havent got any help from anyone. At last I made up my mind to sell vegetable in a vendor. I myself & God only know how I have done the job. As time passed I changed my Job, & life too. From then I have changed my opinion, I really hate asking for help. But I am in a good position. I never ask anyone for financial help or try to. my conclusion is that "If I have money I do spend, if I don't I don't spend." Friends, What would you do if face this kind of suitation?

Hello,babu! I am a self made man.Luckily I was a government servant.but my income was just enough for hand to mouth life and i had no savings at all.when i was hospitalised for heart problem i could not afford for my treatment.however i could manage to overcome the situation without anybody's help.the cost of the treatment was born by the hospital as i was a government employee.since then i made it a principle to first save some money for emergency purposes.actually at your time of needs no body would come forward to help you.so you did a right thing to start your won business,may be small but there is prestige in it .you are no more dependent on others or you would not ask any of your friends or relations for help.have faith on God,He will defenitely come forward to help you.thank you.

You are a mind-strong man,and I really admire you very much.Your true story set a very good example for me. Everyone will meet the difficulties,all kinds of difficulties during the lives,it is natural,however,not everybody can tackle them and be successful at last.You do! I think the most importance is because of one word:insist! I should learn from you in my daily life. And thanks for sharing your stories with us,I am very touched.
