This is more of a ignorant rant.
How is there a huge wage gap for the exact same role b/w USA and India?
Thanks to abroad working Indians and their dollars, I cannot even own a decent enough house in my city?
How can one who is working in India can peacefully live when abroad working are buying all the properties with ease?

Sure buying a house might be easier there, but remember reel life is not equal to real life. Surely you can get to a decent position here in India as well.
I am from a small town in Maharashtra and working in Bangalore/Hyderabad for me is no different than Seattle/Bay Area (I am sure most Indians are not born and raised in Bangalore/Hyderabad).
If I was in Bangalore/hyderabad I would have went back home to visit Parents maybe 6/8 times in a year. Instead of that I do it 2 times a year for 1 Month each and it doesn't hurt that much. Parents can visit us for one month each as well twice a year.
My parents are in good shape and in their early 60s. And not in any position to die soon.
As for relatives/cousins: they are beyond obnoxious. They just stack rank all the cousins and determine everyone's worth by their salary, job status, and the hotness of their partner.
As far dating in the US is concerned, it's hard but as long as you are tall and decent physique guy you should find at least someone. Although it's true that most guys do.import women from India through arrange marriage but that's because we want a homely girl who isn't arrogant (indian girls lose their mind after coming to the US).
And as for me my fortunes have shot up since I came to the US. 3.5 years back I was rotting at WITCH for 5 LPA. I even failed to crack 10 LPA jobs.
But after graduation I got into Amazon 🤡 so did every indian who graduated with a master's degree in the US 😂😂
Recently cracked Uber Salesforce Oracle Microsoft and a few startups.
Already saved 120k after 1.5 years of working and getting rid of my education loan 😎😎😎
Slated to hit 1.5-2 million in the next decade. Will return back with that amount and work for FAANG equivalent companies in India as a manager(by Taking internal transfer and retaining US based rsu grant).
As a manager in India I will chill and won't do shit until I am asked to resign because I am too old and dead weight to the org/company 🤡🤡🤡
The key is to know that you are an Indian. Identify yourself as an Indian rather than trying to fit into the US culture. And you will be fine
You will see your parents getting aged and realise how great your decision to stay in India is.
I personally saw my cousin's, who couldn't attend their own parents final rites during COVID waves.
It's just rat race.. NRIs buy in India thinking they will settle there later, but when children grow up, impossible to return and unable to maintain, they sell properties. Be happy. Health and family is more important than anything, wherever you stay in world.
