SouthAsian Secret to a Happy Married Life

A South Asian was asked by his friend, "What is the secret behind your
happy married life?"

 SAsian:  "You should share responsibilities with due love and respect
each other. Then absolutely there will be no problems."

 Friend:  "Can you explain?"

 SAsian: "In my house, I take decisions on bigger issues where as my
wife decides on smaller issues. We do not interfere in each other's
decisions."

Still not convinced, the friend asked "Give me some examples".

 SAsian: "Smaller issues like, which car we should buy, how much to
save, when to visit the home town, which sofa, air conditioner,
refrigerator, monthly expenses, whether to keep a maid or not etc. are
decided by my wife. I just agree to it"

 Friend:  "Then what is your role?"

 SAsian:  "My decisions are only for very big issues. Like whether
America should attack Iran, whether Britain should lift sanctions over
Zimbabwe, whether to widen the African economy, whether Sachin
Tendulkar should retire from cricket etc., etc. and do you know, my
wife NEVER, objects to any of these decisions".
