How much should one earn at 25?

I know it's difficult to answer, depending on everyone's and family's needs. But ideally how much should one earn.. i am at 25 earning 10 lpa working in big4

I have retired parents who are dependent on me.. i have a loan to pay but I'm not sure how I will manage..if i have to marry in the next 5 yrs what should be my salary that i should target? I am assuming my partner will not work (though myself or my family is not having problems but i cannot force on my partner to work, it's her choice and hence considering she will not work to set a target how much should i earn?

for 25 - 25LPA+ is good, maybe tier 1 college can help to boost for you

But if I go for tier 1 collg MBA, collg will take 2yrs i will be 27 and then i have start everything from scratch again.. assuming 1 yr for stability will take 28.. almost 2yrs with no money and 15-30lakh collg fees .. it is not feasible for me now..

Anything around 10 LPA or more is great at any age

But I can barely save despite me not spending much.. mostly bcoz of my loan of 35k per month..😓

How much of the loan is remaining? Can you close it earlier?

It’s not at all bad if you demand a working woman from yourself. This is me saying being a working woman. Just be transparent about it and above all finding right supportive partner is important. Having a personal CA helps to whom you pay while return filing only but throughout the year 5-10 min call for suggestions is no harm to anyone.

18 LPA in hand as 25 years old.

Hey

I am not sure if I am earning enough. While I am free to live my life on my terms (family has decent bread earners and don’t have to send money back home) but still feel that I may be behind.

Am I doing good?

12LPA @27 Years. Am I a failure.

12lpa @ 27 yrs age. Is it too low for this age. I see most people here reach 30+ ctc by this age and get multiple marriage offers also. I feel ashamed now, i think marriage also less chance.
