Because that’s the best way to flaunt your credit cards.

Because saving schemes are passe. Look at what’s happened to UTI.

Because unless you spend more, how will your husband be compelled to earn more...and more.

Because now there are shows like KBC and Chappad Phaad Ke to take care of your whopping shopping bills.

Because you never sat in an economics class. The word budgeting is Greek to you.

Because you don’t want to save for a rainy day. Who knows whether you’ll live to see that day?

Because you have the others’ economic well-being at heart. You want the shopkeepers to prosper.

Because you don’t mind burning a hole in your already tattered pockets.

Because you’d rather sprint in Nikes today than do a one-legged hobble in their future models when you’re 70.
