I have experimented with a lot of different types of living situations during the pandemic - mountain tourist towns, suburban areas, countryside. At the end of the day, I felt the most fulfilled when I was able to connect with a community.

However, there are downsides to this. To compete with Jio. All the carriers have massively decreased the prices to match Jio. This has increased congestion in all metro areas. Things don't work when I most need it. I cannot book an Ube

Once you are a high net worth individual, I don't think getting visas would be difficult. My best bet is still to get tax break.

Similar thing happened to me. Google randomly disabled my account for no reason. There was absolutely no way to contact them. From that day onward, I do not trust Google or anyone to keep my data. At least, I got a small product out of the

That makes sense. My app[1] is currently priced at $20. The way it's used, it can't be right to limit users with pro features. I can either increase the price or go the subscription way. If I do increase the price, I'm afraid
