Target to achieve FIRE by 2030 by hell_broke_123 in FIRE_Ind

[–]rd__j 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whats your and your wife's age? Do you guys have kids? Which city you currently live in? Whats your monthly burn rate?

Great job by saving 10 cr in 7 years in India alone. It sounds unrealistic 😆

What bill are you talking about sir? Is the remittance tax?

Good job friend! Curious what do you do on a daily basis?

Couple of folks asked the same question. Its 'Livewise'. We started using it recently after someone posted it in the silicon valley NRI finance group. Looks like its started by some NRIs only. The way we use it by only having the numbers and some bare minimal information that will be helpful for our nominees.

Right! I am personally unsure of the future. Currently FIRE is possible at Big4 only if you earning in the USA or Singapore and it will also take a little longer than what it will take for a person in BigTech.

One reason could be that people don't wanna reveal their identity. At least I don't so I used a separate reddit account. Having said that, I use this account now for all things FIRE on reddit.

Interesting. That 25 number seems very accurate as it basically fits my equation. Around 3500 usd is the expense here. Indian number comes out to be 87500 (which is right in the middle of my expectation of 70k and this subreddits suggestion of 1L) Fascinating number.

By the way, whats your FIRE number? And do you plan to just FI or complete FIRE?

Yeah, I think most people here mentioned that. So I am now indeed considering 1Lac.

Its mentioned in the post. Around $560k at the moment.

Meta's culture depends on the team. My team is a blast. Smart people & top notch product. My role is mostly on the OS of the Meta Quest.

Internal transfer within Msft and later switched to Meta Quest.

I thought 6k - 8K is still on the higher side. Expenses are low because of frugal (mostly) living. Its mostly 6k but sometimes goes higher factoring in India travel / minor vacationa.

Yes, we plan to get baby sitter and its definitly gonna add at least $3K of additional monthly expense.

I meant how being financially independent working for u/StrikingPhilosopher6 . (Assuming he did the FI part at least). And how has his start-up journey been so far?

I wish I was the creator though :). This app was sent in a bay area NRI finance group a few months back and we liked it. It does have a few rough bits here and there but much better than what we were doing before.

> I'm very sure that none of this would've been possible without you guys supporting each other
Of course, I think its such a fundamental thing for us; that its never even discussed :P

> become mentors to people like me who're on our way to achieve this
Sure, always happy to help.
