From the desk of Maria B

Hi friends,
Last week, I received a frenzied call from an excited winner of our popular quiz competition who wanted to know if she had won a Camry.

I don’t blame her as every other company is offering new cars in lucky draw!
I had to tell her, though, that she had won a family meal, which would at least help her to overcome her disappointment! By the way, we don’t claim that we are trying to match the generosity of Oprah Winfrey.
The purpose of holding such a competition is to give a feeling of participation and winning to the contestants. It is not really important that what the prize is. After all, you don’t judge the value of a gift by its price. If you do that, it is against the spirit of the contest.
However, there is no denying the fact that the money won is twice sweet as the money earned. According to Mark Twain, a dollar picked up in the road gives more satisfaction to us than the 99 which we earn.
But I think it would give us more enjoyment if we play the game for the love of playing it.
Maria
