Seeing a lot of posts about NW, however, the journey for Indians who moved to the US comes with its own challenges and opportunities. Would love to see how we are doing and understand what’s working well to learn from each other. Let’s use this format: Age, Gender, Net Worth in USD, Location, TC, total years in the US, and one thing that worked well for you :-) Pls include your self-earned net worth only (No partner, inheritance etc). Pls deduct debt, mortgage, loan etc from all your assets such as savings, stocks,401k, real estate, home etc I’ll go first: 30, Female, 550K, NYC, 200K, 7.

Years in the US, including education or years, working in the US?
Total
I'm not an Indian immigrant, but my grandparents are. 78, 112 million, Southern California, 4.5 million, 56 years in the US. They own a hospitality group with 8 hotels in SoCal. Gujarati Patels own 50% of hotels in America. Business ownership is the way to go to create wealth.
Hopefully you will be inheriting a little something. Not much to say except well done, grandparents.
Hey, your grandma is single?
Any Patel’s wanna mentor me? I like how y’all move.
28, M, 900k, SF, 600k, 1.5 Sweet refreshers + high performance worked well for me.
Came onsite for Uber?
Yeah
26, M, 700k, Bay Area, 250k, 5, Nvidia
Wow! Commendable!
"Pls exclude debt, mortgage, loan etc" .. this confuses me. Doesnt NW include these things? Do you want just the total assets and exclude liabilities then?
Edited :)
39, M, 1.2m$, 300k, 12, consistent investing but nothing has worked extraordinarily for me
Damn you all getting paid?
It’s a trap.
38, M , 2.8 M, SF, 400K, 12
All this in cisco? What worked for you?

Nice! Any learnings on what worked well for you? Even better if you can share more about whether/how you negotiate? As a woman, one of my learnings is that I should have negotiated much earlier. I didn’t do that and would just take what I got offered :/
There is no “as a woman” - they are equally capable as men
