		<description>Not sure, maybe its genetic!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Actually Monish Pabrai of Pabrai Funds had a talk on this about 2 years ago. He thinks its because they got into this business early on and they&#039;ve helped subsequent Gujarati immigrants to buy motels(from where they subsequently graduated to hotels) by lending them money and offering sweat equity.</description>

		<description>Recently I was reading an article about the hotel business in the US in some economics journal. Now I forgot which one.... probably Journal of Economic Perspectives. One interesting aspect is the very strong Gujurati presence in the US hotel business :) Does this ethnic connection give some advantages? I wondered why so many are in this business.</description>

		<description>I myself would like to go into the hotel industry in the near future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But like you I only have a puny amount to invest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I give myself 5-7 years to get into the market.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It always good to know people in good places. You have a good start by knowing someone in the industry.</description>
