Own a car + bike. I am funding my own marriage and save about 1.25 lakh a month. I dont have support from my parents or ancestral properties.

My suggestion is as long as you have zero debt, you are tension free. Try to save and allocate to emergency funds.

Get a health + life insurance of 10 X your annual salary.

As a quote say, "The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, the second best time is today."
