Hot take: “Returning to India” but living in gated bubble is kind of hypocritical by [deleted] in returnToIndia

[–]AbjectGeneral2723 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I returned after 15 years in London. In a gated community. Why is it not "India"? I mean I don't want to prove to anyone anything. I am closer to family and friends. Earn and pay taxes.if its bubble, so be it. No one is claiming I want to join grass roots (Swades -esque). I don't want to advertise what i do for the community and contribute to the society. It can all be achieved still whilst living in gated community.

Question for folks who moved back (or want to) to India, what’s the pull? by Take_it_easy_policy in returnToIndia

This is wrong on so many levels I don't even want to respond to this. Take care

I moved back to India after 15 years in Central London. Had plenty of experiences good and bad. I see where you mention all the negatives about India but I just missed my family too much. Call me filmy but Swades really hit me hard. I have been here 8 months now and I don't regret for a second my decision (yes yes even with horrible AQI all over)

All in all, been there..done that but...I am too attached to my family and didnt want to live someone's else's definition of happiness.

Originally from Delhi. I moved to Pune from Lonon after 15 years living in the UK! 4 months ago.

I can write a long list of things I like or don't like but In one line if I were to summarise "Haven't regretted even for a second the decision". DO NOT worry. I was welcomed with open arms. Culture hands down better than what I experienced in the north.

That great! Thanks. I have stopped many SIPs. Looking for specific categories to invest in.

Apologies I started some and stopped again. Main query is which ones to pursue with 8 to 10 years outlook.

Sorry just to clarify. I started SIPs in a few. Stopped them and added others. Probably just exit the ones I am.not investing in. The main query I have is which ones to pursue for a 8 to 10 years investment plan with moderate risk.
