"Is youth of India running behind Money?"

Yes, most of the youth in the present generation are running behind money, few of them very badly, even at the cost of national interest and pride. This is purely because of the globalization effect.
We can see many young celebrities running behind money in the name of creative shows, involved in criticizing, insulting, denigrating our own culture, national heroes and ancient personalities. It is very sad that many cultural slaves among the people also becoming crazy of those celebrities and becoming their fans.

For example, take the case of “AIDS” awareness program. Many millions of money is being spent for this globally. Our highly paid celebrities are campaigning to us to use “Branded condoms” produced by multi national companies to get protected from “AIDS”. (This means "Chori karo lekin police se bach ke karo?) They also provoke youth by repeatedly kissing each other publicly on the stage. Almost all the medicines used to treat the “AIDS” are produced by the MNC’s.
But, no one is seriously considering teaching our youth, not to have pre marital sex, abnormal sex, sex with un-known partners, sex with multiple partners, sex with sex professionals etc. No one is seriously teaching the youth, not to use illegal inject able drugs.

We should educate our youth to consider except the legally married spouse, all others as their brothers and sisters. This is not done, because sex business rackets, celebrities who get money out of “AIDS” awareness program, MNC’s who produce condoms and “AIDS” medicines and drugs mafia want money at any cost.

Money is not bad, then why running behind money is considered as bad.
Here, we need to categorize money into two: 1. Hard earned money 2. Easy money.
Running behind hard earned money is not considered as evil practice. Generally it involves healthy competition and practice of socially accepted norms. Economic growth will be steady without major fluctuations.
Running behind easy money is considered as bad and evil practice. Mostly it involves un-healthy competition and very less practice of social security norms. Economic growth will not be steady and major fluctuations are possible. The present economic recession and global warming are the evil results of such practice by many governments, businessmen and individuals across the world.

I think running behind money is not bad at as per today expense situation because of expense is high then we need to do hard work to reach our target.

Money makes our target easy. In most point we require money so Money has created virtual power in the world.

Yes sridhar,

It is true that the thirst for money is not only for middle or lower class people but its is also for high class people like celebrities.. When money is seen in front of your eyes,then we will not be able to see moral values or our culture...

We should spend our own hardly earned money through nice practises.When money is earned using our own sweat,then we will use money carefully and will not try to waste it.

I could say that if at all youth are running after money for the sake of their family it is far better than the politicians who run after the same money but at the cost of innocent people.

Thanks Jobin.

The intelligent and competent people create better opportunities for them where ever they work, if appropriate working culture and conditions are prevailing in that organization.
Shifting the loyalties just for the sake of some hike in pay and perks is not advised to the youth, particularly when they are fresh in their profession.

Apart from money, youth should also give importance for the following in their organization.

Competent management, good working environment, easily approachable management, develop in house managers for leadership positions, honest and ethical business, offer training for improving our skills, physically safe place to work even for women round the clock, good recreation facilities, fair and equal treatment of all staff irrespective of their gender, religion, caste and region etc.

A perfect and skilled professional cleverly makes his organization depend on his/her services rather than he/she himself/herself becoming like parasite on that organization. This is not possible for the people who shift their loyalties very often just for the sake of money.

Money should be allowed to flow appropriately in a perfect balancing way into the hands of all hard working people involved in any project. This will create a social harmony.

Sridhar...
You told "The present economic recession and global warming are the evil results of such practice by many governments, businessmen and individuals across the world."

Do you think the economic recession is started in recent days ? How Global warming becomes a result of this ?

All need money.So they try to find out it.Money has value only when it circulates in the market.Demand for a product will increase only if purchases are taken place.Accordingly production will also increase.That is the way of business.It can't be connected to Global warming.

I will not blame the fresh youths for changing their profession frequently because most of them are ill paid and have entered in jobs to stand on their own legs.So when they get higher chances definitely they should grab that opportunity.Then only they can grow.But this jump should not be only for salary hike.

"Before money , even a corpse will open its mouth".All of you might have heard these sayings.Then why should we blame a living man who has a lot of his own needs ?

So try to be adjusted with the earnings you have.Don't look to people above you , always look to those below you.Pay thanks to God for having this much.Then only your life will become fruitful and peaceful.

I think new youth is running behind money that money is not big as i think they running and getting mostly not more than 10000 pm. but those who are politician of our country they are corrupting things and earning in corers. so from his activity new youth suffers to get nice job to earn money.

that may be one reason politicians are not interested to do well for India they are fill his pocket only so we need to blame them not to new youth.

Only Government can make our life better by his decision and planes.

Simply running for about 4 KMS and drinking a glass of MILK to compensate it, is equal to staying at a place and having a glass of WATER.

Government, all over India is spending huge amount from the tax payer’s money for running many schools, colleges and prestigious institutions. Many youth once they get degrees and become competent are just flying away to abroad and serving to other countries and their people. Even the youth, who got benefited from the tax payer’s money in the form of reservations, scholarships, free hostel facilities etc, are also doing the same, by forgetting the responsibility to give back some thing to the society / nation, which has taken care to bring up them.

I heard few excuses from the friends, who are just running behind money. Some say that, their parents have spent lot of money for their education; hence it is necessary for them to earn good.
How many such parents are really enjoying with the earnings of their children?
How many such children do really spend the major share of their earnings for the benefit of their parents?

Any one who can able to earn around 50,000/month in India, need not un-necessarily run behind more money and go abroad.
India requires your talent. Please give back some thing to your nation. Take care of your spouse, children and parents. They need your physical and emotional support apart from your money.

If you want to see INDIA as a developed nation by 2025, please involve in creating your dream opportunities in India itself.

Thanks to Maverick for initiating an important discussion. Thanks to Amit for suggesting such topic.

@Siddharth.
I agree with your points related to “making money v/s earning money”.
“Brain drain / human capital flight”.
“Drinking more water than what is required saying that you are very thirsty is harmful and running after money saying that you are hungry for success is also bad”.
Western culture:- Yes we need not blindly follow it in all matters, which may not suit to our nation and society.

@harish
Depending on parents for our basic needs is not at all bad. Trying to earn some money to meet them is not at all considered as “running behind money”.

@Abid
Your advice to youth “know your limits and live accordingly, then you may not have to run after money or easy money” is a valid point.

@Soubagya Das, Jobin etc also have posted valid points.

Overall, this was a very lengthy, live and interesting discussion. Thanks to all who have participated.
