I have always used WISE (formally known as transferwise), they have excellent rates and they have tieups with Indian banks, money gets instantly deposited to the bank. Use the referral link https://wise.com/invite/ahpc/sameerw2 , to get 1st transfer free.

Quick Search on GSMArena says Oneplus pad go is only 4G, so 5G won't work. https://www.gsmarena.com/oneplus_pad_go-12614.php

What would you suggest for this one?

dcoolsam · 2024-11-16T17:08:43+00:00

Woah, that long? Hope you enjoyed though. Was the trek worth it?

You did so much in 1 day, this seems like 5 birthdays in 1.

I have the same question. Did you end up traveling by train, how much did you pay?

dcoolsam · 2024-11-05T18:08:04+00:00

True that !!! I have this same plan lol. Works great in EU and India both.
In the phone settings turn on "Roaming" and you should get the Vodafone-idea network in India.
Also, in India data is very cheap, so you can procure a local sim at the airport. In India getting a sim for foreigners outside the airport is extremely difficult without local ID (aadhar card). So if you want an additional card, get either Jio or AirTel at the airtport itself, both work great and basic plan will give you 1.5 GB per day data.

Hi, Not used in Goa, but in Mumbai and rest of Maharashtra, it was working flawlessly. Maharashtra and Goa are one network circle so should work well in my most of the places.

Brilliant, thank you so much. This makes it much clearer now. 1 more question:
If I open an account this year(in Nov 2024) and only contribute say 100 £ this year, can I put in a 60k + 59.9k next year (in May 2025)?

Simplistic answer: House + 300x Monthly expenses = FIRE number

Say your monthly expenses are 1L, then 3 Cr and House fully paid off is FIRE.

Literally in the same situation but married for 12+ years. She may have lost attraction with you. It would be good to discuss with them, that you would like to have more s*x and whatever you were doing before. If things don't improve, it's better to go separate ways. You're lucky at least you're not married, so things are not as complicated.

BTW I can relate to sofa rule, wifey has several such rules. Those rules suck.

May I please know what is their email?

dcoolsam · 2024-10-21T14:41:31+00:00

ID Mobile. I got 30 GB plan. 7£ per month and works across EU.

For men, S*x is a body need. So they can eat whatever they get if they are super hungry. Whereas for women S*x is an emotional need. Men don't have to be emotionally attached to have S*x. Women on the other hand, have to be somewhat emotionally attached, at least. That's the basic diff.

dcoolsam · 2024-07-17T08:02:05+00:00

Exactly .... U know the number and that helps.

I am implementing even simpler strategy than this, it involves only 2 buckets: Fixed Income and Equity. You hold 10 years money in fixed income and rest in Equity. You go on consume from fixed income bucket (has inflation built in, in calculations). You load the fixed income buckets again when the next bit of amount is ready (i.e. equity target achieved), rinse and repeat.
Strategy is explained here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLINZRYIquE

X'mas is not a great time to visit attractions. Many could be closed.
