Point Eight

Some ideas arrive wearing uniforms. Point Eight arrives in a kurta — plain, comfortable, and ready for work.

The idea is simple, and like most simple ideas it is easy to nod at and hard to use. The nod is free. The use costs attention, every day, in small change.

A rupee saved loudly impresses people for a day. A rupee invested quietly feeds them for years. The bazaar respects the first; life rewards the second.

Money is a good clerk and a terrible master; the arrangement is entirely up to us. Keep it like a good key: accessible, unlabelled, and used often.
