Each person has a minimum need

To survive and live as per deed

If one has access to a little more

He/She will be in comfort zone.


Some have penchant for excess

Way more than what you can guess

How do they manage with all those

Only the one who owns them knows.


Some own a bevy of luxurious cars

Brunei sultan alone has 7000 cars

Mukesh Ambani is 5th largest owner

He owns 170 cars as per disclosure

One needs software to manage fleet

Which car to drive and when is a feat.


Brunei Sultan has the biggest house

1788 rooms from which to choose

Mukesh's Antilia next most expensive

With 49 rooms over 27 floors to live

600 staff manage the daily chores

His home itself is like super stores.


Some have fetish for owning footwear

Imelda Marcos had 3000 pairs to care

Jayalalithaa had 750 pairs to choose

600 million have no access to shoes

Some consider walking barefoot healthy

They hope to connect with nature deftly.


Nita Ambani owns costliest saree

It's prized at only Rs. 40 Lakhs you see

Jayalalithaa had only 11000 sarees

Wonder who will own or use these

8% believed to have no access to clothing

Who will dress them up without a sling?


Food is the craving one falls prey

In star hotels, weddings, there's a huge buffet

One is happy with a couple of dishes

Even if one orders one's choices

There's left over food after filling tummy

But it doesn't reach people who are hungry.


There's opulence with only a few

There are people with nothing is a rue.

Rich will become richer

Poor will also become poorer

Unless society promotes equality

And poor upgrade without frivolity.


Money with all billionaires is USD12 trillion

Removing poverty requires USD100 billion

That's only a fraction of net worth available

But poverty will stay to keep economy scalable.
