eBay doubles up as B-School
Quote:Chandan Singh, 25, in Mumbai, found himself unemployed when the financial institution he was working for closed down three years ago. His efforts at both seeking alternative employment as well as setting up his own business were not successful.

"It was hard," says Singh, "I did not have the financial wherewithal to take out loans, rent a space, hire personnel, or procure stock in bulk in advance." Then, one day, Singh saw an ad in a newspaper. " I read it and decided to go to business school."

So far, so ordinary. But he's not talking about any of the B-schools you know, least of all the hallowed IIMs. Singh's B-school experience constituted a 90-minute seminar at eBay Academy, and he now earns about Rs 8,000 a month through online transactions on eBay, selling electronic items at this website.

By India's low standards that is actually enough to qualify as (lower)  "middle class".  In the tech industry, for example,  outsourced workers in India are paid about 10%-20% of what their  counterparts in the US make.  The difference in wages gets even worse for unskilled/lower-skill industries like the garment industry, etc.
"Well, Jay was so giddy that someone named Jay was involved with this site we posted our first non-eBay listing in 3 years here at Lunarbid (we tried two items at Yahoo once upon a time, they bombed)" -Marie posting in a LunarBid thread at OTWA in 2005 wins the award for 'most moronic reason ever given for choosing a venue"

"thanks twat u must have nothing better 2 do. do u talk to all your members like that. will not be recomending your site.
best way to put it is TULIPTOOLS.COM IS REALLY SHIT. DONT JOIN." -pubescent owner of rinky dink off2auction.com in 2011
