India Photos — and Globalization
A Chicago Boy who is working in Pune forwarded some slice-of-life photos. The photos are informative and amusing, and the work he’s doing is interesting because it’s on high-tech financial stuff that wasn’t being done in India a few years ago. Indian economic liberalization, combined with tech advances that are globalizing every activity that can be done over the Internet, now make India a land of opportunity for guys in Chicago. Who’d a thunk it?
UPDATE: I have edited this post slightly to make clear that I did not mean to suggest that the people in these photos are amusing to look at.
Holy Cow!
