The above statement of one of the most learned and wisest men on the earth clearly brings out the benefits which one can derive from undertaking a travel. With globalisation, inspiration of Indian people have multiplied many a fold. Earlier, we used to be happy with imported goods. Now, we, instead, want to travel to the countries of origin of such goods.
In my childhood, visiting a nearby religious place was considered to be the only holiday which we looked forward to, but the same isn’t true in the case of my daughters now. Indians not only travel within the country, but also travel to every nook and corner of the globe, these days.
Each travel comes with a costs in terms of air tickets, hotel charges and shopping as well which is part of the travel. Such costs can be met by using the savings. But, some people borrow money as personal loans or avail themselves of credit facilities offered by tour operators, to meet the cost of the travel and repay the same by way of an Equated Monthly Instalment (EMI). The money borrowed on personal loans is given without any security, so generally they cost more in terms of rate of interest ranging between 15% to 21%. So, should you borrow money through personal loan bearing a high rate of interest or use the credit facilities offered by some of the travel companies, which have the interest built into the price of the tour? Let us discuss.

What Drives Us to Invest?
I had made the journey from economics to finance. As part of Keynesian economics, we were taught about the three motives to hold money: the transactions motive, the precautionary motive and the speculative motive; all through my teaching career that remained part of my Keynesian economics. But two decades, later when I immersed myself into the world of investment, I had to develop my own tools to understand the new discipline and make my investors understand the working of their own minds. One night as lay turning on my back, poring over the day’s happenings, suddenly I made a strong connection between what I had studied years back and the problem I was grappling with now: the motives.
