MS in CS at US or stay in India?

Confused if i should go for MS CS from USA or stay in India, how would you decide?

I have almost 5 years of experience as a software engineer in India.

Its been a long time now, that i am confused if i should go to US for MS considering i will have to take up a loan of 50 lakhs.

Also the layoffs are here, probably scenario will be good once the MS is over (May ‘24) , and i might be able to repay the loan.

It seems like a huge step and a risky one.

My motivation for US are

  1. Foreign Exposure and Experience
  2. Bank Balance for better retirement in India As IT is uncertain and we never know what might happen in future.

What are your thoughts on this, what factors should i consider?
