There are six things on his wish list:
\n\u2022 Studying mathematics and linguistics
\n\u2022 Learning the Salsa dance
\n\u2022 Travelling
\n\u2022 Re-reading some of the books he has already read like Catch-22 by Joseph Heller and Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: An Inquiry into Values by Robert M. Pirsig.
\nSubbarao also plans to open a tutorial class in which he will give special lectures on how to take baby-steps; how to switch from being a dove and a hawk; and how to flip-flop.
\nFinally, he will renew his relationship with his 94-year-old mother-in-law, who stopped talking to him after inflation started inching up. She has not spoken to him for the past three years.
\nThere are quite a few things he will miss after demitting office.
\nThey are the feeling of being important; being mollycoddled at every function; big luncheons; and being well taken care of during air travel.
\nWhat will he enjoy after his five-year stint at the corner room of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) headquarters on Mint Road in Mumbai?
\nFirst, his personal autonomy.
\nHe will not have to try and talk profoundly every time he meets somebody.
\nFinally, he can go to see a matine show of Chennai Express.
\nHis advice to his successor Raghuram Rajan?
\nWell, he has only one piece of advice: Take every important decision personally and depend on the RBI staff for seemingly unimportant or trivial issues. The important decisions include deciding on the menu for lunches thrown in honour of dignitaries, what gifts should be given to such dignitaries and the sitting arrangements at such functions.
\nThe staff should be consulted while making monetary policy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
