Okay. Let's see what kind of financial wizards we got here. What is the best way to take advantage of this? How does a person go about profiting off this development?

What is the Indian currency? I know it's not wampum so don't give me that. How does a person go about investing in a country?

I believe it's the "rupee".

Well you can try speculating with foreign currency exchange rates...
and pray that you don't get trompled by the Big Boys.
Or you can pack your bags, uproot your family and emigrate.

I believe India's currency is called the rupee. I don't know if you could directly invest in their country, as they are probabaly smarter than America when it comes to foreign investments.

First you get a job that pays well (if you can find one that isn't leaving the country) then you take your disposable income and invest it.

YOu can go into funds that are India centric with tech companies.

Direct investment in the Sensex, Bombay stock exchange via dollar investments can be done, too.

Additionally, some Indian firms, Wipro, InfoSys, Tata are traded on the NYSE, IIRC.
