Hi fishes,

One different question 😅,
Is it possible to live in metro cities with 95k / month of salary (no debt / emi to pay)
For a couple without kids and parents?

Sure, why not ! 95 K per month is a decent amount of money (contrary to what one might feel after reading fishbowl salary posts) ;)
Needs are finite, wants aren't.

90% population there earns lesser than this. That too with kids and many with loans and EMI too. So you can easily live .

Higher offers at 27-28 with more fixed pay is from contract and hire/fire type companies. Mostly indirect hiring instead of direct employment with the final employer, means higher pay with lower jon security - we get little more pay, companies get the option to let go with ease later!
