I'll be moving to Mumbai (Andheri East) next month. I'll be earning 80K PM after tax and this is how I'm thinking of dividing my finances. Please give your inputs. Fixed:
Savings - 39K/40K
Is this good?
I’ll also recommend getting a shared apartment in Andheri East.
Road connectivity between east and west is terrible because Andheri bridge is under construction for a while now.
JB nagar and Sher-e-Punjab will have cheap accommodation.
Electricity will be cheaper. I pay <2000 (Adani) total per month for a 2bhk and I work from home (display, laptop, ac, fan).
Also consider cost of maid/cook. For 2bhk it’ll be about 3-4k and cool salary will be based on number of people and meals.
Airtel Broadband has 200 mbps plan for ₹1200. Divide that between occupants. Jio has similar plans.
I’ll suggest not staying in a pg. It’s usually not a good experience; there will be curfew hours and most ‘aunties’ who run these are very intrusive. Sharing based on past experiences.
All the best 👍🏽
Thanks a lot. I found a really nice shared 2BHK for 24K but it will fuck up my savings. Not sure what to do. I'm going there on 1st till 5th with my father. Would I be able to find a shared 2BHK in this timeframe with the help of a broker?
Yes. You can also look at flats without brokers groups on Facebook.
It's good! A shared apartment is more likely in Andheri E. PGs are rare.
Good luck!
I actually found a PG in Andheri West near a bus stop and auto stand nearby. It's 4.5kms from the office and 18K (negotiable). Should I go for it?
Don’t rely on roads. Take it if it’s close to metro and you can’t afford to wait. Road connectivity between east-west is bad.
Is it worth moving to Mumbai Goregaon with a fixed salary of 18 LPA from Bangalore? I was living on a paycheck-to-paycheck basis in Bangalore. (In-hand salary: 115k) I am a 25-year-old single man. Actually I want to know about change in ...

This should include everything from home bills, entertainment, medical expenses, trips etc. When I was single (back in 2016), my expenses were around 20k per month.

20 K + 20 K in 2016 -> approx 35 K + 35 K = 70 K (assuming 7% inflation over 8 years). Extra 30 K can be attribu...
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:
