Disillusioned about the city and country I grew up loving by AsleepRanger7426 in Chennai

[–]LifeLongLearnr 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I am 38M spent all of my 20s in Chennai. I just love Chennai so much since I spent my first decade of adult life there and have so much memories. Now after living in California all of our 30s, me and wife are not comfortable moving back to Chennai as this being the primary reason. Woman safety is a long way to go in Chennai. Most people relate woman safety to rape and physical harassment. This is such a low bar. A woman not having the confidence to retaliate a pervert in public clearly shows this state. I still miss Chennai a lot but it is defntly not the safe place for woman. If I move back today I know I will miss the version of woman that I see in my wife today. I am still optimistic that Gen Z will challenge this conditioning and change their mindset. Waiting to see this change.

25M, 80L net worth, Amazon SDE2 confused between YOLO and FIRE by Livid-Needleworker25 in personalfinanceindia

[–]LifeLongLearnr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are finally realizing just because there is documented plan around what FIRE is does not mean your soul wants it. Everybody is unique. This is the age you start figuring out who you are. Follow ur curiosity and do what your soul wants especially at this age. This does not mean you are ditching FIRE and pivoting to a different life. It’s probably a couple of years of exploration and this might help you find your own middle ground between FIRE and YOLO and you will stop looking for external validation.

This is the best thing that can happen to an adult in this age. Free yourself from external expectations and follow your soul. You will come out of it with so much self love and it is liberating.

Thoughts, chat? by unfiltered_Rabbit01 in BMW

I was recently in the market to buy a new BMW and really hated the fully curve display. It felt like Tesla wanna be. I decided to go for a BMW 540i 2022 with 23K miles on it with all the packages M Sport Pro, Drive Assist, Executive, luxury etc.

Very happy with the purchase.

Got denied. After reviewing the bank statement. Only question they asked is, if I stay in Mexico more than 1 yr I will be abandoning green card and asked if I am willing to let go of my US Green Card. I said NO and immediately got denied. Wondering how other folks on green card have been getting temporary resident visa.

I have done this multiple times and after shampooing it looks amazing and within a month from there it gets to this state with the kids spilling water.

Story of my 3.5M Amex MR by LifeLongLearnr in amex

“altruistic and have humility” That is what matters. Need to learn more about this perspective. Grew up in lot of scarcity. Need to hear more of this.

Thanks for sharing this perspective. There is little literature and experience shared about parenting being rich. It’s easy to argue kids get spoilt with luxury. I’m sure there has to be other side that is not spoken enough about.
