r2i forum

Thanks Dicky_Bird. I've already tried that and it's not available in my area (Seattle). Says its only for Sacramento/Roseville.

Hey there, There is this company that is often mentioned here that buys used cars. CarZone or Car something.. it's on the tip of my tongue. I searched and searched and couldn't find it. Anyone help me out? Basically, I've read posts here where the folks keep the car until the last day of their ...

Thanks everyone for the responses! @suba - The reason I don't want to change jobs right now is because of the H1B/GC hassle. If I had GC, I would have left this job a long time ago. I tried talking to my wife about R2I but she is not entirely convinced. She will R2I solely because of her concern for ...

Has anyone here R2I'ed against your spouse's wish? If so, how did you deal with it? My background - - Me (31), wife (29); both on H1B; working in IT - GC pending, PD June 2011 (EB2), no hopes in the near future - 1 kid (aged 2), USC; no plans for second kid - All paid for 3BHK apartment in Hyderabad ...

My Roots, I think you're right but I feel that even the upper middle-class people are also spending more than before. I've also seen a couple of local friends (definitely not upper middle-class) who blew up Rs. 10,000+ in one night at a bar. In my opinion, people are thinking less and less about the ...

[QUOTE=gurusw;477081]If you don't have GC, how you plan to recover from your "mistake"?[/QUOTE] Well, do it all over again I guess. I'll try to find a Desi consulting firm who is willing to do H1B (I understand I'll be paying for it even though it is illegal). But since I'll be able to retain my old ...

Thanks for all the encouraging words. I feel that I'm at a stage where I can make a mistake and recover from it. My son is 2 years old now. I'm thinking of doing my experiment before he is 4-5 (school-going age). I understand my venture may not succeed. But I'll be content with the feeling that I've ...

[QUOTE=oasis138;476891] I assume wife can work full time bring in decent income - this is the big one..if she can get 15+ lacs plus salary you will be fine ... Give up GC...not sure how imp it is to you. [/QUOTE] Thanks for your response. My wife is scared of the job market in India. There is a ton ...

I understand the general consensus here is to secure a job in India before the big move. But I don't like to work for anyone anymore (weird, right?). I have a business idea which I desparately want to pursue. It is an online web application with a monthly revenue model. There are a couple of similar ...

[QUOTE=london2india;412155]Nice way to explain what you are going thru, Surprisingly I recently decided to r2i but originally I felt I have become a robot and when I used to see anybody working in the company I am working, they all looked like robots, only monthly salary drives them except very few ...
