Am I doing good (posted by a friend)

I'm 26, and currently earning 22 LPA at an Australian based MNC. I don't come from a really good educational background and I worked really hard to get here. I see people my age (in BLR) earning way more than this and sometimes I start questioning if I'm still lagging in life.

At 26, ₹22LPA is well ahead of most peers (India’s average for 5YOE is ~₹15L). Comparison distracts from your unique journey—you’ve already outpaced your educational background.

Next steps if you want growth:

Upskill strategically (cloud/AI certs can boost salary 30%+)

Target global remote roles (AU/EU companies pay $80K+ for your experience)

Bro people with 7+ yoe are stuck at 8-10 lpa in my organization and some of them even have families to take care of. You're doing well enough, everyone has their own journey and circumstances.
