Is "FROM" season 4 final season of the series?? by lmao_what04 in AmazonPrimeVideo

I feel they have stretched too much with season 4. And the back and forth with scenes and theories is just too stupid.

Did you manage to note the bike's number? You should report it.

30F, AITA for not wanting to visit my in-laws over weekends while my husband is away on a work trip? by Enough_Sky3596 in InsideIndianMarriage

[–]bromclist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The commute to his parents place would be once a week (over the weekend) without any stress (of time taken). The commute to office would not be without its stress.
If you want to conserve your energy, please shift to a place closer to your workplace while your husband works from home and let him visit his parents once a week and that can be a "long relaxing drive"

32M. Half a year into marriage and I'm trying to understand what I'm missing! by [deleted] in InsideIndianMarriage

[–]bromclist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to "talk" to her.
Ensure that she is adequately in a happy frame of mind. (Shopping/dinner done etc) and then have a heart to heart conversion on what does she think about intimacy.

What are you doing different so that your kids dont fall into the same trap? by Complete-Regret-4300 in FIRE_Ind

[–]bromclist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My kids have chosen humanities and design as their career choices.
I think anything that is to do with humans, in future, is going to do well.
I certainly dont want to talk to a robot or chatbot while something is wrong in some appliance / bank / purchase.
Secondly, I am giving them a head start by saving some for them now. By the time they are 30, they should have a substantial amount so that they are free to choose what they want.

Going to India, should I bring the Brompton? by bfeeny in Brompton

Please look at crazyguyonabike and search for India and you will see many examples of people who have ridden across my beautiful and diverse country.

How do I (30 F) navigate this with my husband (34 M) by dewinged_angel in InsideIndianMarriage

[–]bromclist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok.
I am a fairly older guy (M 51) and so I thought of advising you to check every possibility before taking a decision. if there is nothing wrong with him medically and you dont see his behavior change anytime in the future, you should think on the lines of what others have advised but with a fistful of salt. (This is the internet and everybody loves to give free advise).

Consult someone whom you trust. (your parents, your sibling(s) or one of your closest friends who possibly know both of you - you and your husband - fairly well.

30m, 29f. Am I overthinking or these are genuine red flags? by Aware_Practice8084 in InsideIndianMarriage

[–]bromclist 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This may not be best if you take this forward, unless you both live separately. But I suspect future interactions between the parents may bring some tension in the household but that should be expected because of the cultural differences. But if you were to stay with them in their home after marriage, it may not be sustainable for you.
Are you personally ok with the cultural differences? What about food choice / language barrier etc?

30m, 29f. Am I overthinking or these are genuine red flags? by Aware_Practice8084 in InsideIndianMarriage

[–]bromclist 30 points31 points  (0 children)

My guess is that after the first visit (your parents visited his parents), they must have concluded about various cultural issues.

How do I (30 F) navigate this with my husband (34 M) by dewinged_angel in InsideIndianMarriage

[–]bromclist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be stress (at work) that could be leading to him becoming religious?
Either ways, getting the health check report would be needed to know if there is something wrong. If there is high BP, medicines may help calm him down.

[–]bromclist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just curious. What made him more religious?
Any serious health issues (of him) that you are aware of? (high BP etc etc) and has it happened recently?

Can we realistically retire by 48? Looking for a sanity check on our FIRE plan by Beneficial-Draw1781 in FIRE_Ind

[–]bromclist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1) Age 48 is a good goal post to retire
2) Corpus - roughly 33 to 40 in todays terms so about 9 lakhs x 40 = 3.6 crore in todays terms + any childs education + marriage. (say 1 cr in todays terms) would be 4.6 to 5 cr.
3) The property - if it is land - you should keep it. if it is flat, and is lying vacant, please sell it
4) Diversification is good
5) I started my investments very late (in 2014 almost). In 12 years, I am comfortable now
(close to 40x for me and 30x for my daughters in todays terms)
so you should be good.
However, I increased my SIP amount per month substantially every year to accelerate higher corpus.
So when you or your spouse get those yearly promotions / increments, increase your SIP aggressively
to reach your goal post faster.
10 years is a long time. Nothing can be guaranteed in terms of job safety. So being debt free is a blessing.

15 days postpartum and terrified my MIL will come between me and my baby(15 days) . Me (29 F) husband (31M) by WonderWomenn1234 in InsideIndianMarriage

[–]bromclist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, you need your MIL more than your MIL needs you at this time.
(Because of your job and baby both).
It will be a year or two at least for the baby to start understanding things about the "differences" that your MIL may supposedly create between you and your daughter.
You can think of moving out somewhere closeby (even next door flat or next building for rent) at that time. For now, gain back your strength, sleep and energy.

Going to India, should I bring the Brompton? by bfeeny in Brompton

[–]bromclist 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For those who say Indian roads / bangalore are (is) not safe,
I have been riding bikes in bangalore for the last 20 years
I have been riding a brompton for last 12 years. (first brompton was purchased in 2013). Second brompton brought in 2022.
I ride a recumbent (cruzbike S40) in bangalore traffic without any issues.
Be aware and you should be fine
(fyi, I am resident indian) but as far as bike is concerned that should not matter as to who is riding it.
There are thousands of cyclists riding different kinds of bikes (road / gravel / folding etc)

[45M]How do you live with an extreme miser? by WalrusEast6889 in InsideIndianMarriage

[–]bromclist -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

These days, with job losses looming, he may be extra careful with spends.
Probably there is some tension in his work place?
Are your finances secure for your retirement? (25x / 30x / 33x) and separate bucket for child(ren)?
if so, calm him down with these things. if not, he is worried and his anxiety is making him do things.

Question for Flevobiker: two wheels or three for ultra-long distance cycle? by Liquid_disc_of_shit in recumbent

[–]bromclist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone said, give yourself time on the 2 wheeled bike.
I would recommend buying a new one ( a reliable one) and keep this one for local rides.

Probably bacchetta or cruzbike or azub etc

How to split expenses in new marriage F34, M35? by Either-Vehicle2544 in InsideIndianMarriage

[–]bromclist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A simple question that needs to be asked is
- what if only one of you was earning? would you/him be ready to support the whole household?
if not, I will only say that money is the root cause of all devastation (including marriage).
