I refuse to downgrade my expensive travel habits
My current salary is 65LPA. I am from NIT, have 6 years of experience and work in tech. Honestly, my spending capacity is higher than what I actually utilise but I am very clear about not compromising on comfort. When I do see peers hoarding all their cash, I feel that they are doing injustice to their hard work and playing a miserable game.
More and more though, the thought of saving every penny exhausts me a bit. I have a strict rule of booking premium flights. It gives me peace of mind to travel comfortably and freedom to arrive completely fresh But the mindset of "paisa bacha kar rakhna chahiye" still haunts my relatives.
My parents also are not dependent on me and whatever is needed from my side, I actively contribute to. I also lack any motivation to focus on extreme frugality and see my youth pass by. I just use the money in my bank account purely to fund a good life.
For me at this point, comfort is a basic necessity. There is very little that you take to the grave. And I just do not see the value in suffering anymore.

Agar itne khush ho to compare kyu kr rahe ho ?? Everyone is playing their own game let them play on their tnc may be premium flight excites you and they don’t give a shit about it all it depends on person to person

Living premium isn't crime you achieved this, Don't overthink
If you not enjoy your money then who will?

Exactly my point. It makes no sense to put in all this hard work just to keep living like a struggling college student. Comfort is completely worth the money.

How much r able to save and your networth? Maybe that's when we can comment if this inspirational or alarming for an intervention with you

No intervention needed haha. I still save around 40% of my post-tax income and have a solid portfolio. I just choose to spend my disposable income on actual comfort instead of hoarding it.

Who is asking you to downgrade man go do what you want why do you have to justify it here

How much you could save till now?

I manage to save about 40% of my in-hand salary every month. My investments are well on track, which gives me the freedom to spend on premium experiences without guilt.

Nobody asked you to reveal your CTC here. Thode mature ho jao kab tak bacche bne rhoge.

Analyst at what profile?
