I Regret Moving To Bangalore for 15k Hike

Life in Goa was simple—₹60K in hand, low expenses, and no real stress. Then came the Bangalore offer, with the promise of ₹85K-₹90K in hand. Sounded like a solid upgrade, so I packed up and moved.

Reality? A classic bait-and-switch. After deductions, I was left with ₹75K. Not bad—until I saw the expenses. ₹15K gone in rent alone, and the rest disappearing faster than I expected. Bangalore wasn’t just a city; it was a financial black hole.

Lesson learned: Always read the offer letter like your bank balance depends on it—because it does.
