How to go 5X from here?

Currently at over 45L INR ($55K)/year. Jumped from 9L INR ($11K)/year 1.5 years back.

Is it possible to go 5-6X from here?

I'm in tech, backend.

What path should I follow? Build a SAAS, become an influencer, join a FAANG?

One post is enough to brag my dude 😅

Possible, yes? Become a staff/principal engineer in top orgs, or switch to engineering management (In tech itself)

SaaS building comes with a lot of challenges, unless you have a revolutionary idea, it's hard to maintain or scale up.

Only way to multiply your income would be to get a job that pays in USD, or start your own venture

Baba, with low base effect 4-5x looks good. Having same expectations going forward can be challenging and disappointing.

Thanks for posting this. Otherwise I only see posts like- "I have 2 YOE with 30LPA salary, is it less?".

This actually is the reality that most of these ZIRP era Gen-Z babies wouldn't get.
