I know you are a keen gardener but when did you first start to show an interest in this? Was it as a child or later in life?

I had interest right from the time I was a kid. I would pick up stray plants from the roadside and even spend my pocket money to buy them.

Given your username I assume that you do a lot of writing, what type of writing do you do?

Have you worked as a professional writer or is it something you do as a hobby?

The youngsters should know the difference between needs and wants as wants have no end. They should learn to save for a rainy day, choose good company, do yoga and meditation, eat well, exercise well and lastly understand that it is not how much one has but what one makes of what one has is the route to happiness.

Are you a youngster? (lol)

I know a few languages of them English and Hindi stand out.

Depends on your liquid position. If you have enough then you can convert your retirement benefits into capital. May be part of it could go for purchase of land, debentures, shares, and bank deposits. You should enjoy part of it - may be go on a foreign holiday with your family

I have heard that it's a lovely place to visit.

That's very cool. I've always wanted to learn another language.

Well, there you go. You were looking for something to write articles about.. something like this would work as personal finance or self improvement.
