| Cultural Insight |
| Becky: Now it's time for a quick cultural insight. |
| Shakti: Within families, the idea of individual ownership is something that has entered with Western influences. Previously, wealth, land, vehicles, houses, and so on, belonged to a family collectively. Even to date, there is no concept of children taking loans from their parents, because it is accepted that money belongs to the family as a whole, and not individually, except on paper. |
