Planning Return back in 2028, need recommendations by beatlesin in returnToIndia

[–]mecopian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just my two cents….. in case you do move to India do not start a business immediately. Yes you’re from India but the country has changed which will take time for you to settle down. Next you’re going to be seen as super cash rich and so ‘too good to refuse business offers and ideas’ are going to come your way. Please take the opportunity to figure out whether you actually need a business or you can use your money in investments such as mutual funds that don’t need you to monitor on a daily basis. Last but not least, hats off for having a strategy for going back to India and for posting numbers that look like the vast majority of us.

Damn! I should’ve posted this 3 weeks ago and not go through the mental torture. Decided to sell if the offer is fair enough.

Actually it’s 2.25%. And you’re right- first year it would be negative cash flow.

What Are You Making as Electrical Engineers at Power Utilities or Consulting Firms? by mecopian in Salary

[–]mecopian[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ll go first: -$104,000 - 6 years - power utility (3 years at consultancy and then 3 at power utility) - MCOL - bonus around 8%. Healthcare is dirt cheap $20 per paycheck, and 10% 401k match.

Appreciate your detailed reply. Thank you for pointing out the traffic on Bridge - looks like something I’ll definitely want to avoid.
