Thanks for sharing. You are an inspiration !
Prabhu!! Aapke charan kaha hai. 🙏. Congrats op on coming back to your roots.
Haha, thanks! To be really honest, I just came back for family and FIRE. I'm not the least bit nationalistic or patriotic. I'd settle in the first world in a heartbeat, if I had no family ties here.

How do you plan to move your investments to India? And how often?
Congratulations on 🔥 I'm planning to do the same in 3 years. Great content, really helpful! Wish you the best 👍
Articulate. Critically reasoned where it’s supposed to be. Shows truest strength in your character. This is what a future CEO / entrepreneur looks like. Although I don’t want to / aspire to move back to India, I’ve surely picked a thing or two about being meticulous and to live well below means. Inspirational, devoid of the end goal.
Congrats OP! One of the best limited series😀 This question is not related to this post but more relevant to the post no 1. How much money did you put in market every month? Did you religiously follow dollar cost averaging? Can you throw some light on your strategy?
Hey Walmart! I'm an extremely unsophisticated investor. I'm grateful that index funds exist for lazy investors like me. Ever since stumbling upon FIRE bloggers like Mr. Money Mustache, Mad Fientist, Livingafi, J.L.Collins etc back in 2016-17, I've just been throwing all the money I have into VTI and VOO funds. No dollar cost averaging for me. Whenever I had cash, it went straight into the market.
I may be late here but hoping you are still active here. Considering you are back in india for almost 8 months, how are you holding up? We constantly here people regretting coming back to india in blind. Were you not affected by change in lifestyle?
You mention that you need a handful of answers ready. It would be great if you'd share those as well haha.
How did I miss these? Great writing and info, I have no plans to move but this is great
Congrats and all the best. Do update us on your monthly expenses and how you're planning to withdraw savings once you settled in. Good luck.
