This is utopia. You have achieved the peak mode. Enjoy life, go on international trips every quarter. Play a lot of sports. Take care of your health. Keep winning. You are the reason why the next gen will take up IT jobs. Kudos amigo 👏

Compared to how much you earn , amount invested in mf and stocks is too less I would say.

Hey, I have stamped H1B with me still valid for 1 more year. I am not interested in going to US. To point saving in US is a myth you can earn less and have far better lifestyle and access in India than in US. If you both are earning in India it’s never a good option to travel at all

MS on loan is not a something I would prefer just to get into US. It will take few years to close all your loans and come back to positive side financially. US was craze 10 years back, I know many of my friends who are willing to come back to India because of the lifestyle

How much wealth have you created yourself?

  1. Real estate (invested value)
  2. Liquid cash
  3. Other Investments (invested value)

The wealth should not be inherited.
