Did you know? My salary is 15k but I have 15kCr wealth 😒

The last I saw, to be in top 1% individual in terms of wealth, you needed to have assets worth $77k. This is from news article of 2020. Sharing link here - https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/business/india-business/this-is-what-it-takes-to-be-in-the-1-around-the-world/articleshow/74057315.cms Now, based on new data, you need to have assets of around $175k. Approx 150% rise in 3 yrs!

Okay, this post is not for any comparison but genuinely want to get insight on where do i stand in terms of saving among the corporate employees. I will go first. Age :28 NW : 65L

I started with a job of 8k/month as a data entry operator after my B.Tech from an expensive tier 4 college which I paid for using an education loan. Had major inferiority complex. Probably still do. Took some 5 years years after b.tech to pay that off. Didn't have a job in 2 of those years. Worked as a milkman for those two years. Anyway..somehow I got a meaningful job in 2017 and today I am a tech lead with 70L base and some equity. Reached this giant(atleast in my mind) milestone of 1 Cr this month. Could not have even dreamt of this much money some 5 years back. Yet, now some family members and family tell me "tukka lag gya tera" (you got lucky). But I keep feeling that I did kinda work hard for this in a way but it hurts when a first uncle or first cousin says "Tukka lag gya tera". Ofcourse now I feel financially confident(somewhat) and I try enjoy whatever pressures I can. Just wanted to share my little story.

1. Real estate (invested value) 2. Liquid cash 3. Other Investments (invested value) The wealth should not be inherited. I'm 30. No house, 10L in cash and 5L in mutual funds. No inherited weath.

So many folks are speaking out (or bragging who knows🤷) about their monthly/yearly paychecks. Just curious, for all single folks who are receiving a hefty wad of cash every month: 1. what do your general expenses look like? 2. what do you like to spend it on the most? Here's my monthly breakdown(jab hum employed hua karte the🥲): rent(coliving PG)- 12k transport- avg. 1.5k food- avg 7k gym & stuff- 7k parties- 5k misc- 2k TOTAL- 34.5k out of 80k in-hand Apart from the general expenses, once in a while, I'll indulge in buying a good perfume of around 5-6k. The 2 most costly purchases I made were a new laptop(asus vivobook)- 50k & prs electric guitar & accessories- 82k What about you?
