#23, rkoonadi, I hope you still get to see this. First Disclaimer: At no point am I supporting the teachers and what they made your child do is terrible. Now this is my analysis: These teachers are ill equiped to teach and handle children despite their fancy degrees. No point going into the why they ...

While you are in the US, please visit [url]http://www.iahp.org/[/url] if you haven't already done so. From what I hear, they have been in this field for over 25 years and are doing great work. I dont know if there are better alternatives or not and would greatly appreciate it OP could provide ...

OP, did you mean the offer is $50k for working in Pune from the US company or is it for a different job in the US. If it is the later, it is a ridiculously low offer. Even in late 90's early 00's the starting pay for a graduate from mid-range schools was atleast 50k in the east coast, non-main ...

Does India Infoline allow one to buy Benchmark EFTs ? I doubt it if IIL will let you do that as I wasn't able to look up their ...

we haven't heard from the OP in two days. hope things are ok. here's my 2c on this. I hope this helps. Please note that at no point am I ever suggesting that he is right. What he is doing is deplorable and we need to find a holistic and permanent solution that addresses the problem at its root cause ...

I see one loophole in that argument. If you take it end to end i.e., 2000-2008 or 65-80, it seems flat, but as the OP mentioned, if you DCA, there are quite a few cyclical trends and you would have had ample opportunity to buy low and I feel that you would have had a higher return.
