A ‘Gold Card’ visa costs 44 crore if you want to become a citizen of the US

I can’t afford this, but maybe someone else would find it useful and could miss out on hearing about it. So, I’m sharing it here.

I don’t have a BMW or Air Purifier. Neither do I live in a posh location. Happiness is an inside job. Hell and Heaven lies within.

I got educated in India in a local school and college. Internet (one of the cheapest in the world) helped in gaining more knowledge and insight. Am pretty sure in my professional capacity as an electronics engineer my knowledge or skill is not inferior to any American engineer I interface with regularly.

I could have gone out but I chose to stay back for my country. The west developed exploiting us and in around 200 yrs pushed us from world’s leading economic power to destitution. Now to rise from that shock will take some time. I am doing my bit here. Many others are doing what they can. Am pretty sure we will get back to where we where in due course of time.

India has the cheapest health care costs in the world. I know Americans who come here for dental fix :sweat_smile: Paying some one or not is a personal choice. I was concerned about air quality. So I took an EV. Change starts from us and happens through us.

I do know that India has a large section of the population living under poverty. Therefore the govt also runs large number of welfare schemes for the masses. I also pay my tax diligently in due consideration to all the poor and certainly all the peasents who feed us Indians.

Secret to reducing STT and in general transaction charges is to trade less. Also low frequency trading systems typically give better returns.

These STT charges can really spiral out of hand when you’re involved in leveraged trading with Equity Stocks.

I recall racking up significant STT fees myself when I was day trading Equity Stocks.

However, it takes a great deal of willpower for some people to let potential trading opportunities slip by without taking any action.

Wouldn’t sound that great for SEBI :sweat_smile: Let the algo rules come out and then let us see what I can offer.

You seem to have a thing for BMW :slightly_smiling_face: Milkey hi rahega :hugs:

Ultimately what matters is how much we made and how much we lost in the market irrespective of the strategy. So better to focus on the strategies that work rather than those that give a high.

Being blissfull in my country… Paying 5 million for being NARCOTIC and fed by animal protein. A country where 60%population living on chemicals… and cost of citizenship is 5Million USD. Only lunatics can pay…

I recently learned about this trap. It’s a concept that many of us in India are not used to, where our taxes depend on residency and not Citizenship.
