BLING BLING !!!

One look at my gold chain and my boss asks me “ are u malayalee?” Of course I am………. which other breed of bling obsessed individuals can you find on this earth?
Males and females alike are always adorned with 3 sizes of gold chains; thick, thicker or thickest.

Though my gold chain may only be a tad thicker than normal, its nothing compared to what south indian brides adorn themselves with.

The amount of jewelery a malayalee bride wears would probably put Snoop Dogg to shame.
Check out these jewellery ads. Sometimes I wonder whether a gram more would break her neck.

Given the current price of Gold, I pity the father of the bride, who will burn a hole not only in his pocket but maybe through his trousers and leg too right upto the bone.

Hey, contrary to the "burn-a-hole-in-the-pocket" statement, gold prices have hit an all-time low at 11,000-something as compared to 14000-something earlier!! So investing in gold at the moment would save a lot of money!! Dude, start shopping for your would-be-wife and planning for you would-be-daughter's wedding!!!
