Dear Mausam,
I take a train ride to reach my job every day and I have to switch two trains everyday to reach my destination.I just realised that the monthly pass for my two train rides is 44$ and 118$ which in all becomes $162 and if I convert into Rs it becomes 7128Rs for a monthly train pass!
a Hindi movie ticket for 2 costs 21$ which is 928Rs.!
Our monthly rent for a one room apartment in Cambridge is 1400$ which is 61,600Rs per month!
So all you fellow indians vying to land in US, don't just imagine the earnings, spare a thought for the expenses!
Regards,
Ajj Kaim

This is nice... but then you forgot something... your earnings would surely be even higher than all this to cover up for the expenses you incur? isn't it??
The best option is devise a way to have an untaxable income in the US and expense it in India.
Hahaha.... there'll be a time when U'll stop the dollar x 45 (Rs.) conversion.... :D :D
Mann.. i rem my 1st few months in the country... but then look at it Paru.. u earn on the same scale!!!
