Hand that rocks the craddle rules the world Since dawn of civilization women have been respected and worshipped in our land as goddesses. They have been adored from time to time as virtues incarnate. So many of our virtues like learning, wisdom, chastity, and wealth are represented in our religion and mythology by goddesses. Learning is called Saraswati, Chastity is called Parvati, Wealth is represented by Lakshmi, Worldly beauty by Maya, and Energy is symbolized by Durga Kali. Whenever we refer to our ideal heroes like Ram and Krishna, we always prefix their names with those of their wives. Our country itself is called ‘Motherland'. In ancient times, women in India occupied an exalted position in society and excelled in various aspects of life. According, to an old Sanskrit verse, the woman was considered "in action like a minister, in kindness like mother, in service like a maid, in enjoyment like Rambha". There was no ‘Pardah' and education was as much as privilege of woman as man. But in later Hindu periods and afterwards, the position of Indian women worsened more and more.

In an ideal world of personal finance there wouldn't need to be any tricks to staying free of fees on financial products. Fees would be fair, well thought out and clear to consumers. In that case, this article wouldn't even need to be written. However, this is not an ideal world when it comes to financial products for consumers. Go to compare credit cards and you'll immediately be met by a wave of fees of various kinds. Those are just the ones that are visible at first glance as well: for example, when it comes to transferring a balance to a new credit card there is now pretty much a blanket agreement among providers that the transfer will entail a transfer fee. This is now widely accepted as the norm but it wasn't always the case. In the case of balance transfers and other kinds of credit cards there are now a number of such fees which are publicly agreed to be mandatory although no rule or law says that it's the case. For example, when consumers come to compare current accounts many are now told that the account doesn't charge an interest rate for overdrafts. However, overdrafts on most of these accounts are still subject to fees. The fees are often levied over a number of days...more
