Britain in an historic referendum voted to exit the European Union ending its 40 year old love-hate relationship with Europe. This is the first time a member state has decided to exit the EU. Sterling witnessed its biggest one day drop since 1945, as world markets went into a tailspin. A frenzy of put options (options that bet on a stock underperforming) were sold in derivatives markets on UK stocks. Article 50 of the European Treaty which details the mechanics of how a nation can exit the EU is sketchy at best. A messy divorce is imminent.
The Rig Veda, the oldest and most revered Hindu scripture, explains the ritual of yagna. The yajaman initiates this ritual, making offerings into the agni, the fire burning in the altar. Each time, he exclaims “Svaha” – this of me I offer – hoping to please his chosen deity, the devata. The devata, in return, gives him what he desires, claiming tathastu – so be it.
Every month, a million young people enter the workforce. That is 15 people per second. By the time you reach the end of this article, we will need another 60 new jobs. And this is going to continue for many years now.

We are all mostly born to Papas who are super men. They are invincible and can do no wrong. They are men of steel who go out there and face the world so that we may have our toys and do well at school.
No matter what metal you have, Gold is Gold.
