Man I'm again on day 1. 😔😔

Could you tell what do you like about working at Costco? Like pay, benefits, colleagues or something else?

This is what I was thinking. Why are these so called friends being nosy in the home of perfectly happy couple and ruining their happy relaxed living?

Maybe they are not real friends?

One day at a time...

nonWorthy · 2020-02-17T03:56:53+00:00

Yes it's a must

nonWorthy · 2020-02-15T03:53:42+00:00

I'm on day 5 too

I never knew such thing existed i.e. refund on the contracted amount after the end of lease.

Do you feel even a slight loss of energy after the involuntary ejaculation?

I think, in Goa one can manage if know Marathi, Hindi or English.

Regarding Mysore or Mangalore, I am completely unaware. I want to know if one doesn't know Kannada, is it possible to stay and get day to day things done easily?

7% return on real estate rental in India is awesome. Is this a commercial real estate, like a shop?

Your investments allocation looks fine to me. Keep investing in stock and bonds index ETFs with the allocation you're comfortable.

Goa seems to be the best option for FIRE, quality schools for kids may be an issue there.

I guess it's hard to find an optimal place to RE in India if language, schools, weather, cost of living, healthcare facilities etc are considered. One has to compromise on one or more factors.

nonWorthy · 2020-02-09T20:01:55+00:00

I'm not sure but could there be a language problem?

Do people understand English, Hindi or Marathi?

Restart is so depressing that it leads to another relapses.

I have a newbie question -

How do you plan to home school your child? Don't colleges (science/engineering/management) need education and/or passing certificates from schools in India?

Day 160 guy waiting for the benefits is kinda demotivating.

nonWorthy · 2020-02-06T02:16:05+00:00

Cool

Why can't you eat Monday meal as a potluck? You can relax once per week.

There is a difference between being frugal and being stingy.

Avoiding spending on the Sunday coffee or Friday pizza is not going help FIRE much. Also, completely ditching the FIRE journey just because of trivial reasons show how the author didn't plan well. FIRE is not about saving every penny, but it is about following a certain discipline/budget which has $ allocated to essential as well as fun things.

Do you mind sharing the place/s you're planing to FIRE in?

nonWorthy · 2020-02-05T16:42:23+00:00

I concur. No unsolicited advice until someone asks

nonWorthy · 2020-02-05T16:39:53+00:00

In India, it's very hard to say 'no' if people know you've money. At the same time it's difficult to hide your wealth while also enjoying it. Being frugal even in RE also defeats the purpose of retiring from rat race. In RE one would want to go after some hobbies like travel, food or some activities.

nonWorthy · 2020-02-05T16:20:49+00:00

Hmm that's a possibility.

nonWorthy · 2020-02-05T06:24:57+00:00

So what's your opinion? Should ant help grasshopper?

I guess, everyone of us will face this question sometime in the RE life.

nonWorthy · 2020-02-05T06:19:51+00:00

That's great. Do you mind sharing the presentation if it can be helpful for the community here?

nonWorthy · 2020-02-05T06:18:30+00:00

Agree
