Coming from a part of India, that's really close to Persian culture, I can see now where some of our customs come from. This combined with Indian customs of etiquette and you have a society where the guest is considered God.

My experience with Quora has been pretty bad, but that has mostly to do with my topic selection and network being Indian. Quora got popular in India because of widespread adoption in IIT circles, who by virtue of being influencers spread it

The US funds or gives aid to the Pakistani State. The Pakistani state diverts its own money to fund the ISI. So the US does bankroll ISI. Pakistan is not really one of the most paranoid and aggressive in the world. And that is coming from a

You are missing a big factor in the 5k USD watch. It is expected to last you a lifetime, if not more. It's more like an heirloom. This watch, at the pace technology is moving would be lucky to last a year.
