Everyone of us , at some point of time in life would have wished to be placed in a high paying job. Some would have even dreamt of becoming the president of their country .Before that did you know that our president earn only 1.6 lakhs a month..?... yeah that definitely sounds bizarre but it is indeed the truth.....! Would you say "yes" to be the president of your country? Inspite of the low pay as well as safety issues and for all those who wanted a high paying job this is definitely a "no", Before you say no ,let me tell you some jaw dropping allowances provided to them by our government. He/she lives in one of the worlds most enormous and magnificent palace our very own "RASHTRAPATI BHAVAN" which covers 330 acres of estate in the heart of the national capital....!!!, they have a secretarial staff of five people and another 200 people employed just for the upkeep of Rashtrapati Bhavan . "It's quite easy to have 200 people working under you not for you ..!" Also adding cherry to the cake, government also provides 30 crores for the upkeep of the palace. Just imagine the government providing you crores to maintain your residence....!!! And that's not were it stops we forgot the most important thing "Safety". Obviously, they will have the dramatic escort facility with a cavalcade of 25 cars along with 86 presidential guards mounted on magnificent horses. President and the spouse can travel to any place in the world for free.! People everywhere have their own bucket list on thing to do , places to go and so on . Now see in the mind's eye travelling all around the world for free.....!!!! This is surely insane .Now would you say "no"......? When you don't have to spend on any basic amenity then what's the point of having 1.6 lakhs as salary...?Right now 1.6 lakh may sound a lot right ..? In addition to that central government has decided to raise the salary to 5 lakhs!!!!!! seriously ,no kidding....
