Thinking Aloud

Since you brought up the US this time :), let me respond to this. Buying 10 acres of land in Alabama, USA is not the same as buying in Tier1 city or Ooty in India. The NRI's return to India not because real-estate is cheap. There are other aspects satisfied only in India and not in Alabama. However ...

First of all, stop believing in the myth that you will be targeted if you are rich in most reasonable places (This is norm and not exception). 1) If the NRIs think they are rich, then they are for a reality shock. In a very small AP village, (drive Vijayawada to Vizag), there are hundreds of ...

Thinking Aloud

On the safety side, I can speak for the south having lived in big cities and small towns after returning from the US. Like in any place, take some common sense measures but beyond that, I didn't feel unsafe even for a minute. There were times in the US, I felt very unsafe. Once I drove from Grand ...

Your thought process is very matured and towards spiritual / philosophical side. That's very rare to find. The only feedback from me on your thought process is as follows... - Given you are only 40, don't underestimate not working. While it may look very great on paper on not working though you may ...

Why NOT R2I ...

[QUOTE=drV;473950]OK..so if I may take liberty of a question.... why did you decide to return ? You make a good point of opinions being presented as facts and people speaking for others....and others feeling like “being taken for a ride”. At the same time we should all know that anyone writing any ...

Why NOT R2I ...

[QUOTE=roxstar;473923]. I am not sure what you have seen but where I live (SF bay area), I am noticing over the past 6 months that the R2I trend has slowed down considerably. The causes could be many, the obvious ones are that the employment market has picked up strongly and the housing market has ...

#2. While there is some truth in what desipardesi said, he has painted all builders with the same broad brush. In fact, desipardesi was also very pessimistic about the Sobha Emerald project in Coimbatore. Read it at the following link message #125, #128 and #135 and the subsequent discussions. [URL ...

Is moving back to India a good decision?

[QUOTE=srinpo;392683]Is moving back to India a good decision? So statistically speaking, my guess is less than 1% (my guesstimate is 0.1%) of people actually R2I and stay that way. Even in this forum, whose name itself suggests it is meant for R2I, you will see the statistics around 75% (LIA) Vs 25 ...

Help with auto incident...

I know one friend who went to Police and got the issue resolved quicky. This happened in the bay area where one of the neighbor(in the next parking lot) hit my friend's car when no one was around and then to hide it, he started parking his car outside the apartment complex. (Not that it matters but ...
