I think he heard you and Operation Sindhoor carried out few hours ago to keep your September plan in place

How is everyone doing? :) I guess nobody expected this. Going well. Generally, I am fully invested. By fluke, I had my wife's old 401(k) transferred to a new account and sitting as cash. I was in the process of moving that to the IRA and wanted to pick my own ETF, like VG S&P 500, QQQ, SCHD, et...

Not only in men in India. It’s same story with Indian men in US especially if they have assets in India. Even men in US go through similar problem. My ex-boss (white) was living with his wife, 1 kid and a dog in a big 4 bed SFH in South Bay. This was in the 90s. After few years went through a divor...

As a Sr Di...

Many of my friends and one relative went for Maha Kumbh. I was invited but declined. 10 million people visit the small town every day. I avoid temples where you have to stand in que for 4 hours like Tirupati or Vaishno Devi. For Maha Kumbh one has to walk for 4-6 hours. I go to normal temples as I ...

I disagree with you. I will take my own example and in my sample data I know many "like me". In terms of talent , I'm you nothing extraordinary ( no IIT degree or FAANG job ). Simple desi middle class life that too in Texas. To give you a comparison, I'm not SAPPRO, Rbee , OS2, Cantor . T...

I FiREd in May 2020 and I have no issues in following a routine and killing time. Days, weeks and months vanish into thin air. The only time I had issues with killing time was on my visit to India since I was not able to continue my routine. I echo this. I did the same in 2020 September for persona...
