Hey Guys,

Just a question off-topic😁

When somebody from our relatives ask about our salary... so what monthly salary should we tell them..🤔... is it salary before tax or after tax?

Getting huge packages now-a-days has become a headache as relatives keep pestering about salaries...

No matter how many times they ask your monthly salary, say your yearly salary,make them confuse.

No need to share what you earn, the next point is being jealous, society doesn't perceive things in a positive note.
If you say more salary..
they'll say good2 infront and at back they'll be like from where is he earning all this something is fishy

If you say less salary ..
They'll say do MBA

If you say what matches their expectations
They'll say you are settle so do marriage

Society is just marking you with salary and will give a random comment how to proceed ahead without knowing what is actually good to go.

Say something that is less, they'll forget after sometime

I don't tell them, I just let them come up with a number and add 20k to it. Something like this

Relative: beta mahine ka kitna kama lete ho?
Me: Bas uncle theek thak milta he. emi rent sab milake kuch saving ho jati he
R: 50-60 to mil hi jaata ho ga na
M: ha uncle 70 ke aas pas aa jaata he

The important point is to be happy with what I am earning. I don't care if he says some distant relative is earning 2L per month. I know what I am earning and how much money I am able to save.

smart

I always tell my before tax salary. And it also includes bonus.

Ask them how much do you think it is. Then add 50k into the amount they have guessed. That'd make them more jealous 😂

I wouldn't tell them anything. But that is just me lol.

I’ve always gotten the advice that when you want to switch jobs you should take interviews from places you’re not actually interested in, so you can understand your value in the market and have better negotiating power.

I’m doing that rn - took a couple interviews to gauge my skills, my market value, and see what I need to work on for interviews that I actually care about.

However, I feel really guilty about wasting their time and going all the way knowing I’ll just say no at the end. Wwyd?
