Planning early retirement (FIRE) back to India from US at 32: Need advice on target corpus, parents, and future kids.
I’m looking for some serious perspective and financial advice from folks who have either done the US-to-India reverse migration or are planning a strict FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) setup.
Here is my current situation:
Age: 32, currently living in the US and working as a Software Engineer. No kids yet.
Current Liquid Net Worth / Savings: ~$500k USD (invested primarily in US markets/brokerage accounts).
Real Estate & Passive Income (India): I own my primary flat/residence in Pune + a few rental properties in Pune generating around ₹1.5 Lakhs per month net rental income. I also have a home in my hometown
Family Situation: My parents are fully retired and live in Pune. They will be under my financial umbrella. No kids yet, but plan to have them post-return, so future child-rearing and education costs need to be factored in.
The Goal: Move back to India permanently and never work a corporate job again.
