From AIB's Ashish Shakya to Scarecrow's Anindya Banerjee explain how to spend Rs 500 notes

When the demonetization announcement was made, there were two things in dreadful short supply in the house that evening. Red wine and prudence. I had to go back to the pictures in my phone the next day to bear testimony to the fact that prudence stayed in short supply for the rest of the evening as well. I checked and realised I had a fair little stash of the wretched notes in my wallet, and by the time I finished reading all the funny memes on demonitisation floating on social media, I finally had only about twenty minutes left that night to get rid of the last of them. That fateful evening both prudence and Hillary lost. Deepak Wines won. And so did a grape. Both rather bigly.

I am finally going to take to gardening and fulfill my lifelong desire of having my own money plant. Also, at Utopeia, creative juices are flowing due to new abundance of roach material.

Considering it is not worth anything, I've always wanted to do something that is perhaps illegal - it appears in a scene in the Kamal Hassan starrer Hindustani too. I want to make a paper boat and paper plane with a Rs 500 and Rs 1000 respectively and let my kids play with it.

I'd spend my last 500 rupee note by sending it to a client who got all his work done and then refused to pay up.

Thankfully, I have transcended these mortal concerns. I have sixteen billion dollars in offshore accounts across the world and a couple of billion in my underwear pocket at all times. Sitting is a little uncomfortable but it's okay, we all have to make sacrifices.
