Some achieve wealth.
And some have wealth thrust upon them.”
I was at first skeptical about this. My south Indian brain, with all its in-built conservatism and sense of security, urged me not to trust a renegade sergeant. However, yesterday, Major Richard Atwater of the same division sent me a mail. Major Atwater (who attended graduate school with me) urged me sincerely that even he was taking only 30%, but was offering me the lion’s share. I missed sleep last night thinking about the things I could do with a hundred million. That’s a cool 440 crores in Indian money. I could have breakfast with Aishwarya Rai, lunch with Mallika Sherawat and dine with Katrina Kaif. I am prepared to ignore the fact that they are not good at cooking. Even better, I could holiday in Provence forever.
I had almost finished composing a reply to Major Atwater, when in came a pleasant surprise. Princess Stella Ajana of Nigeria needs my help. And she wishes to transform me instantly into her Knight in Shining Armour. This damsel in distress wants to commence a long-term relationship with me, if I help her family out in investing a sum of 7.35 million USD. On the one hand, there is Major Atwater’s 100 million, endless holidays in Provence, Ash, Katrina and others. On the other hand, there is this seemingly paltry sum of 7 million, but it comes with a Nigerian princess as an added attraction. What do I do?
I think I have decided. Of what use is so much money to me? If I don’t have someone else to enjoy it with? And that someone is a princess? Dilemma? No dilemma! After all, what’s life without a royal challenge! I’m going to mail Princess Ajana — no, my wonderful Stella. I’ll give her a helping hand, and win hers in love. Rest assured, dear reader, you might have heard of platonic love. This is one, and I’m the ONE!
See ya in Nigeria!
Raaja… raajaadhi raajan indha raaja!

I have mails from Charles Ikeji, Issiaka Yousof, Samuel Mpoyo and the beautiully maternal Mrs.Theresa Wanta, widow of the General Overseer of the diamond mine somewhere in Sierra Leone. I stand to earn close to 40 million dollars
Make way…comin through
Kini, I have some more mails too, most notably from the widow of the former African dictator Laurent Kabila. In theory, I’m worth about 389 million.
With all this wealth, I’m considering buying out Africa… so that I can offer my wonderful Stella an entire continent as wedding present!
Google’s just hired me as Chief Internet Evangelist. Chk out link above.
Have you forgotten so soon Kanchi Krishnan, BURKINO BASO, IDRIS MAMBO et al. Stay away from all this nonsense. Never ever reply them nor give any personal details. Be sure your done in thereafter if you do.
Incidentally, it looks comical to waste time with Aiyshwarya & Mallika n have only B/fast & luuch. I thought you should have them at a much later time zone.
Received many. They all go straight to the trash. But u made a good joke out of it.
