Rs 17430000000000000 bunkers built for people in…, the aim is to...
World's richest people always find a way to get ahead of everyone. Well, this is not only in business, but if the world is going to end in the coming days, they have already found a way to safeguard themselves. Secret luxurious bunkers are being made for the world's richest people where they can save themselves if doomsday happens. United States official Catherine Austin Fitts made a sensational claim that has raised the question again. Catherine, who was in the administration of former US President George H. W. Bush, recently claimed that the US government has quietly built about 170 underground and undersea bunkers by spending 21 trillion dollars (about Rs 1,743,00,00,00,00,000) between 1998 and 2015. These bunkers are connected to each other through a secret transit system powered by an unknown technology.
Catherine made the claim during a podcast of Fox News' famous anchor Tucker Carlson. She said the super strong bunkers have been built to protect the rich from the world's disasters. However, concreate evidence of the claim has not been found. 21 Trillion Dollars… Where Did This Money Go?
Economist Mark Skidmore's 2017 report, cited by Fitts, revealed major irregularities in American federal spending. Millions of dollars in undocumented adjustments, lacking supporting documentation, were identified within the Defence and Housing Departments. Catherine Fiits alleges these funds were used to secretly construct several powerful bunkers. This is not just a theory, bunkers are being built!
An American company SAFE (Strategically Armored and Fortified Environments) has recently announced its mega project names- 'Aerie'. This USD 300 million underground fort to be built near Washington by 2026. The fort, equipped with all the necessary things, will keep 625 world's richest people safe in times of natural or human made disaster. The price of the fort's single ticket is Just USD 20 million per person.
A luxury survival bunker, offering amenities comparable to a five-star hotel, including AI-powered healthcare, wellness facilities, a bowling alley, indoor pool, and IV therapy, has received thousands of applications from wealthy individuals worldwide. The Billionaires Are Ready… What Will We Do?
As per a report by Bloomberg, in 2018, at least seven tech billionaires bought bunkers in New Zealand. Notably, Facebook owner Mark Zuckerberg is building a huge private complex on Hawaii island, including an underground bunker.
According to reports, the construction workers have been made to sign NDAs (confidentiality agreements). Media thinkers like Douglas Rushkoff believe that this trend of buying entry tickets or building bunkers reflects a deep concern that even the rich people don't believe that the world will last much longer.

FPIs make net investment of over Rs 13,000 cr into Indian stocks this week

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 28 (ANI): Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) made a net investment of Rs 13,107.54 crore into Indian markets during the week of June 23 to June 27, according to data released by the National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL). The inflow reflects strong investor confidence in Indian equities. The data showed that FPIs made heavy investments in the Indian equity market, especially on Monday and Friday, indicating a positive shift in sentiment. With these fresh inflows, the total net investment by foreign investors in the month of June has now reached Rs 8,915 crore. This turnaround in foreign investor activity comes after geopolitical tensions between the US, Iran, and Israel eased in recent days. The easing of tensions has improved global market sentiment, encouraging foreign investors to look at emerging markets like India more positively. Additionally, strong domestic fundamentals are supporting this renewed interest. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) recently cut interest rates by 50 basis points in its latest Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting, which is expected to boost economic growth. Moreover, inflation in the Indian economy remains at a low level, further strengthening investor confidence. The combination of global stability, policy support, and strong macroeconomic indicators has made India an attractive destination for foreign investment at this time. On the domestic front, important drivers will be macroeconomic indicators, institutional buying support, and sector-specific triggers such as monsoon progress, consumption trends, and infrastructure push. These elements are expected to determine stock specific movements and FPI behaviour in the short term. Earlier in May, the net foreign portfolio investment (FPI) inflows remained in positive and stood at Rs 19,860 crore, making May the best-performing month so far this year in terms of foreign investment. The previous months' data also showed that FPIs had sold stocks worth Rs 3,973 crore in March. In January and February, they had sold equities worth Rs 78,027 crore and Rs 34,574 crore, respectively.

Who Needs A Job? This Mumbai Beggar Earns More Than Rs 75,000 A Month

Last Updated: Bharat Jain, known as the world's wealthiest beggar, has built a surprising net worth of Rs 7.5 crore by begging on the streets of Mumbai. In the busy streets of Mumbai, near Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus and Azad Maidan, one man stands out, not because he's asking for money, but because he's secretly very rich. Bharat Jain, known as the world's richest beggar, has made a surprising amount of money through begging. He even owns properties and earns more than many people with regular jobs. How Bharat Jain Became the World's Wealthiest Beggar? Bharat Jain didn't grow up rich; his family faced tough financial times. They struggled to afford food and shelter, which meant Bharat couldn't go to school. But over time, he turned his life around. Today, reports say he has a net worth of Rs 7.5 crore, including several properties and an income higher than many regular workers. For the past 40 years, Bharat has mainly earned his money through begging. Reports suggest he makes around Rs 2,000 to Rs 2,500 a day, depending on where he is and how generous people are. He works around 10 to 12 hours daily, earning between Rs 60,000 to Rs 75,000 a month. Besides begging, Bharat has made smart money choices. He owns two flats in Mumbai worth Rs 1.4 crore, where he lives with his wife, two sons, father, and brother. He also owns two shops in Thane, which give him Rs 30,000 per month in rent. These wise investments help him take care of his family and plan for the future. His sons went to a well-known convent school, finished their studies, and now help with the family business. The Jains run a stationery store, which adds to their income. Even though Bharat is now financially secure, his family doesn't fully support his choice to keep begging. But he stands by it and says, 'I enjoy begging, and I don't want to give it up." In an interview with the Economic Times, Bharat said, 'I'm not greedy. I'm generous." He also shared that he visits temples and donates money. Bharat's story is not one of a kind. India's begging industry is reportedly worth about Rs 1.5 lakh crore. Others like Sambhaji Kale, who is worth Rs 1.5 crore, and Laxmi Das, with Rs 1 crore, have also gained wealth through begging. First Published:
