Perfect life style; on the contrary what do we do here in any line of job in India ? Same steps. End is short of money. Health conditions do not equate the savings. No security. Silence is golden. Children do not bear you and you are unwanted. A brahmin deadwood. On the contrary, you are secured there with american citizenship; medical protection at old age; good backup resources; freedom to talk; freedom to move; even if children ignore, can stay comfortably; if children love you added bonus. Hindu temples aplenty. You can even take it home next to the temple and have a good time. Purohits are plenty. Can choose the place of retirement as wherever one goes the system is the same though taxation and a few laws may vary. Life is better than India as on date. If there is going to be a time where the situation in India is so conducive, all Americans may become Indians too again. After all, history repeats itself. KR IRS 15 8 23
