VALUE OF A PERSON

what criteria determines the value/salary/remuneration/dowry of a person? Some are worth crores and some are zero to minus crore! Filmstars are getting crores for their job of entertaining others. what they are doing for national development? Whereas our MLAs and MPs are getting comparitively less salary though they are committed to public affairs and national progress. Common man is worth a hundred rupees OR one bottle of daroo, that too only on election days!!
Some are getting thousands as sitting fee even if they are sleepingin top level meetings. I dont know whether sleeping fee is also inclusive. But see the construction workers, say those digging our roads for tele N/W - from dawn to evening hardworking - what they are getting for that important work! socho... socho .
WHAT DETERMINES THE PRICE/VALUE OF A PERSON?
Is it position,OR courage,OR chair,OR profession,OR suit, intelligence,OR information, knowledge, OR personality, OR popularity, OR luck OR any other modern superstition OR Kya?
Remember the dialogue b/w Kapoorji and BigBji "mere paas maa hein". There are soooo many worthless guys having their maa with them. I dont think possessing a maa also a criteria for determining the value of a person. Then what?
