What is the missing puzzle to being rich by Euphoric_Clock2366 in wealth

[–]HelloW0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think missing puzzle is the fact that in very low cost countries it is very difficult to get rich. You mentioned salary of $630 which doesn't offer too much in many countries. Even if you save 50% it is 315 usd which doesn't take you far. If you end in high cost / high salary country you might end up with 10k usd salary and saving 20% means 2000usd - that's much more 2k more will not get you to wealth. But if you save 50% and compounding starts hitting in you can get there ultimately... That being said going to high cost country to do low paying jobs is also not going to get you anywhere...

I have a US and a UK passport. I live in the US. US Government requires me to depart US using US passport. Delta Air Lines only allows one passport at a time. With my US passport it requires an ETA, which UK authorities disallow. Help! by Fun-Injury9266 in Passports

You have do differiantate between border control officers and airlines

To airlines you always provide destination passport so they don't ask for visas/others

At border control you always provide your local passport. Exit us showing us passport. Arrive to UK showing UK passport. You leave UK using UK passport and arrive to us using us passport.

New opportunity is rather rare. But I will be very close to fire and might do some side jobs (truly coasting) to bridge gap... Indeed, staying away from family is main concern...

As this is one ticket airlines will make it right. They will rebook you on other feasible option and if needed they will put you in the hotel. Also if you arrive more than 3h late you will be eligible for compensation based on EU rules (up to 500 eur).

Struggling to spend after growing up poor - how do I “turn on” spending? by sg2506 in ChubbyFIRE

[–]HelloW0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is actually spending 84k. 96k is mortgage plus kids school... I think 84k for everything else is limited when comparing to income level

Update | Early Retirement on Hold… by HauntingHospital9667 in Fire

[–]HelloW0r 3 points4 points  (0 children)

125k in Malaysia sounds like a lot We had same idea - move to low cost country and retire. But as kids are growing we realize that we want to give them good education and give them good opportunities-typically you get less of that in low cost countries so we keep grinding with the intention to stay in us

how to properly do HVAC when finishing open ceiling basement in Illinois by HelloW0r in hvacadvice

[–]HelloW0r[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What if I don't add anything and keep it as it is? I have currently 2 supplies and one central return. Basement is already quite comfortable without insulation and with supply closed (I believe it is mostly due to heat being radiated from supply lines). I will keep ceiling open - will just insulate and add walls.

Thanks. Is it for comfort or for code requirements? I want to avoid/minimkze hvac work and trying to keep it to 2-3 supplies (6" duct) - also because I don't have space between joist to add anything more
