You were an outlier + had a US Stint. For above average folks working in tech it will take 10+ years to get here.

Bhai return bahut ganda hai

Freemaso

It’s less return more of savings

CharSoBees

Then why did you keep it in stock, use less risky options with recent returns like liquid funds, FD etc.

Why didn't you invest in mutual Funds instead.

Freemaso

Stocks give better returns

Tomcruiseee

But it's only 8% in your case. Have you just started the investment or reinvesting your profit?

Amazing salary progression, and even better savings rate 🚀

Would love to know more about these things, if you can share more:

Year on year, how did you make sure to double down on your skills? Did you stick to a single tech domain and sub-domain building depth or dabbled around various domains?
Have you been tending towards an IC role or a managerial role?
How did you decide that you are done with a certain company, and want to switch? If I may, was that more a "kind of work" decision or "pay factor"?
