Losing anything makes you feel bad. Following the incident you are often counselled not to lose heart. Mere counselling may not be enough if you lose your mind too. And even if you do not lose your mind and heart, who likes to think of himself as a loser?
In good old days people had little to lose except, perhaps, their pen, wristwatch and reading glasses. Later, electronics added laptop and mobile phone to the TLEQ portfolio of travelling executives.

If you are thinking in terms of money, in good old days you could only lose whatever you had in your wallet. Now that the society is going cashless and you have very little money in your wallet, you can potentially lose the whole of your balance in the bank. And if that is not bad enough, you may also lose any remaining limit on your credit card.
But none of these losses are as probable or frequent as the loss of a recently purchased Vicks inhaler. It seldom lasts in your possession for the duration of one attack of common cold virus. And if you are so lucky as to find one you just cannot be sure if it is the same one that picked up your cold viruses or one with more potent swine flu viruses from someone else.
So hold on tight to your inhaler while I go and get a replacement for myself. It indeed has the highest TLEQ quotient for me. How is it in your case?
