Update [2.11.22]: Each year when I go to buy Diwali fireworks - and this has been especially true in the last few years - I'm reminded of my/our financial constraints. When we have to forego fancy aerial crackers because they're too costly for us - I'm reminded of the limitations of our spending power. This year this realization was so stark - I had exhausted all the budget and didn't have spare money to buy fuljharis [sparklers] and Cock's Jil Jil. Apni asli aukaat pata chalti hai.
Update [8.12.22]: I'm down to shoes that cost INR ~500. Till a few years back I used to buy shoes costing INR 1200-1500. What's wrong with my spending power?
