🧵 [Thread] What's the minimum CTC that would make you feel successful?

At 40lpa right now at the age of 25 and feel worthless in terms of earning 😭

150k USD remote is the dream

2cr? Are these salaries even possible?

If I get to 50L base I would feel like I’ve made it

I know someone who owns a Benz C class AND a S class. This person earns north of 3 crores every year. Just knowing that people like these exist in Indian tech space makes me feel if I’ll ever be adequately satisfied.

On the other hand, I know a JEE top 5 ranker with > 10 yoe who’s still L4 at Google.

If I got to 2cr then I would FIRE and DINK with my wife. Then coast hard af.

Need a high finance job now. Quants and shit. I hate working for pennies on the dollar now
