The Pyramid Scheme
Overview
Goldy sells mobile accessories in Haridwar. The numbers never quite work, and the debt keeps growing.
Then Chunmun walks in. He is a bank employee whose pitch sounds less like a business opportunity and more like an obvious truth. Jumbolife. Four people under you, four under each of them, money moving upward. Simple. Clean. Goldy takes the risk.
Money arrives, and so does something else that neither of them anticipates.
