Mom stayed in hometown and took care of the family with her very low pay. And I took care of myself & saved up money. Income of both mom & mine wouldn’t reach 40k. So you’re good to go. It all depends on tiny financial choices & how we want to live. (You might say I was in a shared flat, which makes my rent lower. But then again mom too was paying rent in hometown),” shared a Reddit user. “Just go with the flow, it’s totally sufficient, don’t rely on those people posting 24lpa isn’t sufficient to live in Bangalore,” suggested another. “Yes. You just have to get your priorities right. If anyone says it’s not enough, don’t ever talk to such people again,” added a third. “You can. 40k is enough (I’d argue that it’s more than enough) to survive in Bangalore, you just gotta know where to look for things,” wrote a fourth.The post was shared a day ago.
