heard a ton of sermon from people who think we are all wasting our life being in usa and waiting for GC.
I though why not we "GC waiters" discuss to see what all is wrong with this life, while we are waiting(maybe 5-7 years at the worst).
I am on H1, and hope to get my GC in next 4-5 years, and frankly speaking i am not happy being on H1, having to feed two middle men between me and my client(i get only 50% of my billing).
because i cannot look for another client if i want to, since my billing is so high, compared to similar skill/experience peers.
career wise i am not sure i would have had a great life in india, i have not heard that it has become paradise from my friends who missed the last bus to usa (i came in NOV 2000, just made it.. )..
saving wise i think its around 8-10 times of what i will be able to save in india, with similar lifestyle (that means my 5 years in usa will be equal to 40 years in india..)
my plan is, i am going to wait till i get my gc, keep saving, but i still dont know what to do when my employer starts exploiting me, i work with an american consulting company, so far its been good.
one plan i have is to start my own body shopping company with help of my GC holder friends and other 20 H1 holders, and we will sponsor our visa and file GC through our own company, that way we wont be exploited
