My experience of talking about FIRE to my relatives
So I plan to quit my job next year and move back to Bangalore and try and get the same job as WFH via the Indian entity. If I get all good, if I don't get, I plan to still quit my job and then explore what I can do in India. I am not a fan of taking a stressful job, as I already hit a networth of 10cr.
I explained my motivation to my relatives and friends. Almost everyone has the same response. They are not really worried about my financial status. They kind of understand that anyone who lives abroad for a decade has enough money to not worry about finances.
But almost everyone tells me, do something, my parents tell me, find any job even if the salary is low. My friends tell me do some business, as if it is easy to do, lol.
Anyways, the move back is welcomed by everyone. I did admission of my daughter in a school in Bangalore, for next academic year and it is 7kms from my house. My parents have a landed house in Bangalore and top floor is rented out. We plan to live there, so there is privacy as well as we are close to our parents and we have some relatives nearby. This solves my real estate problem. I plan to keep all my assets in mutual funds and won't buy a flat or house in Bangalore.
Since my daughter's school is 7kms away, I plan to ride/drive and drop/pick her up myself rather than rely on school bus. So this sets up a daily routine. After that I will see if I can continue my job WFH or should I find a new job. My skills are totally outdated and I doubt I will find any job that will motivate me to learn and work hard lol, but we will see.
