The right side of the menu ..

IMHO ... 30LPA isn't the magic number. It's probably the biggest lie we tell ourselves about making it. The rest of us? Still sweating over taxes and rent.

You know exactly what happens when you hit that higher bracket

  • Upgraded lifestyle
  • Bigger EMIs
  • Fancy dates
  • Still calculating Zomato delivery fees
  • Still checking the right side of the menu before ordering And pretending we don't care..

Relax. You only stop looking at prices when the company is expensing it.

What was your magic number???

Sorry brother. I don't agree with you. Once an old man told me that one who earns money should also know how to spend it. I am under this bracket that you mention. My upgraded lifestyle was very minimal, nothing too fancy. But othet things I have just let go. I don't check the right side at all now. Not that I am so rich but because I feel I owe it to the child who dreamt of having that kind of wallet.
