Surenther’s Sovereign is a personal digital archive and independent blog started in January 2026 by Surenther Selvaraj. It’s a living journal of my attempt to build real independence—financially, technically, and mentally—in an increasingly centralized world.

At its core, this site is about learning in public and documenting what actually works (and what doesn’t) while navigating markets and technology on my own terms.


The writing here revolves around three main themes:

  • The Road to FIRE
    Practical approaches to long-term wealth building, index investing, and planning a future relocation to home country.
  • Digital Sovereignty
    Real-world notes on self-hosting, running a homelab, and applying data science to personal systems and projects.

Why This Exists

This blog exists to document the systems behind independence. That means owning your data instead of renting it, and making deliberate financial decisions instead of reacting to noise. It’s not about shortcuts or hype—it’s about building leverage, slowly and intentionally.

Open Access

Everything on this site is freely available. You can browse the full archive, from early experiments in predictive analytics to detailed options strategies and homelab setups. Read, explore, and take what’s useful—at your own pace.
