Just got a message from my best friend this morning – “I’m sitting in a cafe with free wifi in Bandra, drinking black coffee – actually it just occurred to me, it’s not free wifi, the coffee’s so expensive it probably pays for the whole street’s wifi!”

And, that’s when it struck me that nothing really comes free. It’s just the way people package things and throw it your way that you get fooled so easily and sucked into spending a lot more than what you would.

Damn! I wish I’d heard this before running around half the world trying to search for free wi-fi spots, spending more money than I actually would have spent in an internet cafe.

Watch out for this sign. Free WiFi equals Expensive Espresso.
