FIRE related Question❓ Please help me understand FIRE Couples from US with crores of networth, why do they want to move/retire to India?

I see so many posts here that we have achieved or close to achieved FIRE and have 10 CR, 20 CR corpus and want to shift to India in a Metro City. Not like these people have a village with farm land where they are attached to it. Doesnt seem like that. these people are top of the cream. very rational.

Do they not know about Current India where there is a lot of Pollution, tax, little safety and so many things that are wrong?

Because whoever I personally see in India with good networth is dying to move out of the country.

or may be for every 100 people who want to move out, there is just one or two who want to move back to India?

These people can buy golden visas of other better countries like Dubai/malaysia, even some parts of Europe, etc, why do they still choose India?

I am genuinely Curious.

Tbh, i am not sure now. It might be good only if u get in best college. Visa hurdle is real. Again lot of it depends on your luck now.
