Hey Fish Fam! I wanted your advise on where to invest in property? US or India? Can you please help me with pros and cons of both?

Do you have a GC?

Nope!

Okay here is the thing. US investment is lucrative and easier to manage but if you are on H1b it’s a double edged sword. If it works great but if your visa extension gets rejected then good luck. I am not aware of what needs to be done in such cases.

On the other hand, You don’t have to worry about your investment in India for these reasons. However, I would wait a bit more to see where this economy is heading before buying. At this rate, we might end up in a full blown recession not far in future. Amazing time to buy.

Is it too late in our lives to jump into a mortgage?

So my fiancée and I are relatively late in terms of finally landing well paying jobs and being able to save money instead of living paycheck to paycheck. We’re both 36 and currently rent a 2 bedroom in NY and have a combined savings of $35,000 which she wants to use as a down payment on a condo. I kinda just wanna continue saving while renting. I also literally just started contributing to my 401K so I’m also late in the game for that too.

Hello all!
I'm 26, I studied economics but I don't know why I'm not much into investing/trading. Someone else like this?
I recognize this is not a very good approach for someone with money "knowledge" and I would like to change this mindset. My main weakness is that I easily get bored of following the market and that I do not see big opportunities. Any advice?
Where to start learning, general advice for LT and ST investments, things you learnt, books that changed your pov on the topic etc.

Thx!
