Not for all. Parents who can afford this don't think of it as expensive expenditure

Jewellery It doesn’t really make that much of an impression tbh, I wouldn’t even pay attention to it

It’s only if you care about it, that you notice others’

hmm it's true that it's kinda waste money but considering that you can store that as an asset as well it kinda serves the purpose somewhat of ROI.

It can be a investment also. My mom bought jewellery when gold was at 6k. Now it is 72k+

It’s a well known fact that 9 out of 10 traders are loosing money in F&O but still greed and fear always make them to trade more.
