USA India ...No differance in savings....
by vi si on Mar 05, 2008 12:26 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

Guys, When we came to USA in 1998 we were getting $300 a month in India with $ 100 savings and $7000 in USA with $4000 savings which was 40 times more. To day i am saving $500 every month after washing the bath room shiiiiiiiiit my self every day which may be little more than what you guys save in India ..Now they say it is heading for recession ?? God only knows now ..One more thing Savings of Indian community was lost like below...20% lost during internet bubble...40% lost in housing bubble ..And we don't get even 200 square yards with 10 years of sleep less nights here ...Some people would have made money but some people have made money any where >.

Take care

Vi Si,

True on what you said about 1998. But that was during internet bubble and everyone knows that was not sustainable.

Why dont you go back to India? You will make little less money. But atleast someone else will wash the bathroom for you.

India you don't expect a job of cleaning bathrooms or toiletz ,, bcoz we do prefer open air or rather railyway tracks by some modern ppl . We do not have many to clean .
