Expense Account, Mint
There is a little bit of a child in all of us. We build expectations about an event and become so attached to these that they become the reality ahead of the event. The final event then has no option but to disappoint. After discounting the huge build-up to the Budget that the media and the market created and looking at the exercise as a vision statement for the next five years, I find that it works very well.
I like it because it is a goal-oriented Budget—not in the way that the market would have liked with specific number-driven targets but more as a vision statement.
