Nah. You’re way behind. When I was your age I had 70-80 lakhs saved. You should work harder and spend less. Try eating out less and move to the suburbs of whatever city you are in if you can. Also work on your confidence so you’re less insecure and stop seeking validation from strangers on an app

Well D2 I didn’t read the full comment to understand the sarcasm behind. Just 70-80 at 25 was sufficient red flag to call the bluff. I agree with Google full comment though.

You are much better! At 25, I was blowing all my dough on drinking and partying in Bangalore. I probably had 21k in saving lol

Would be much cooler if you can flip the currency to $ with the same amount 🤑

On a serious note, you’re much better compared to someone like me who dumped twice of that in MBA and students loans !!
