They know where to ‘land’!

If I could live all over again, I would buy every square inch of Manhattan”, famous words from one of the first real estate mogul John Jacob Astor, the man who envisaged in the 1830s that New York will soon be world’s greatest cities, hold right for every tycoon in the business today. Be it Astors, Roosevelts, Beekmans and Rockfellers of early 19th century who withdrew money from their core businesses to cash in on the boom in real estate or John Tishman & Joseph Durst (he is known to have started with just $3 at the turn of the 20th century and today ranks amongst the largest developers in New York) – all started with almost nowhere and amassed big fortunes, becoming the top real estate families in the world.

Donald J. Trump’s brush with bankruptcy in the early 1990s (when two thirds of his net worth got eroded and he was in debt for almost $2 billion) is anything but forgotten.

With the Indian rural market projected to touch a titanic $500-600 billion by 2020 (McKinsey’s rural India survey 2006), it’s but obvious that ignoring this market would only be suicidal. Also, taking note of the fact that internet usage in India stands at a paltry 3.5% today, regionalisation of languages will prove ‘the’ strategy to tap market potential better. When IndLinux.org launched a Hindi version of Gnome, the graphical user interface of GNU/Linux called IndLinux Milan v0.3 in 2003, it opened up a world of opportunities for those well-versed in Hindi explaining whose success exclusively to B&E, Prakash Advani, Head, Linux Practice India exclaimed, “IndLinux has been extremely successful & several more applications have been localised after it...”

Lalu's way to nirvana: Take a train

MANAGEMENT GURU

After reviving loss making railways and teaching BSchool grads a thing or two about management, Lalu Prasad Yadav is on a new mission these days. From the land of Buddha himself, Lalu recently flagged off a luxury train which traverses through prominent Buddhist pilgrim centres across India and Nepal. Christened ‘Mahaparinirvana Special’, the train starts from Delhi tracing Bodh Gaya, Nalanda, Rajgir, Varanasi, Shravasti and Lumbini in Nepal along with hitting Taj Mahal & Fathepur Sikri during the week long journey. The measure is believed to give a boost to tourism and to the cash registers of Railways. Fully AC with all comforts, the fair falls in the range of $80-$150 varying according to class & season.

Queen of the Oscars too?

MANAGEMENT GURU

There is something about Helen Mirren that makes her portray the royalty so honestly and intricately that one can’t help but wonder if she’s as blue-blooded as the characters she plays! The Queen premiered shortly after her Emmy for playing the title role in Elizabeth I, a television mini-series, and apart from her striking resemblance to Her Majesty, she offers an insight into the thoughts and emotions running behind her stoic silence post the demise of Princess Diana in this movie. Aft r its premiere at the Venice Film Festival, Helen Mirren’s performance earned her a five-minute standing ovation and ever since, praise has poured in from all over the globe to applaud her potent performance. A three-time Academy Award nominated actress, we say Dame Helen Mirren should win the Best Actress in a Lead Role hands-down!
