00:00Sir, why do people who have recently become wealthy often demand VIP treatment and boast so much?
00:07When you have that much money, it becomes difficult to still remain grounded and tell yourself in spite of the
00:15money.
00:16I am the same old, unlearned fellow.
00:20You see, now you have money, so you'll walk into a store, some glossy brand, and somebody will come and
00:27say,
00:27Sir, Sir, what may I serve you? And that convinces us that we are somebody.
00:33Earlier it was some humble dhaba, and in some sense that was less dangerous because nobody was trying to convince
00:41you that you are somebody.
00:43But now you walk into a restaurant or a hotel or some place, and how does the receptionist greet?
00:49Sir, I am all for you, not just at your service but at your disposal.
00:53And you feel that if lady is actually rolling out whatever, red carpet, you must be somebody.
01:00Now that's a problem. That's a problem.
01:02What to do with it? Obviously, if there is this asymmetry, it has to be corrected.
01:09The better way is to keep pace with what you have there on the outside.
01:14Grow internally so that you deserve what you have externally.
01:19Grow internally so that you can say you deserve what you have externally.
01:24Otherwise, it is indignity. Otherwise, it is offensive, no?
