I just got my third remote full-time job, each making 175k and live at HCOL city. I love working remote and still have the best WLB although I’m still struggling on my finances. What am I doing wrong?

Definitely recommend exporting your bank /credit card statements to excel and start to look at where you are overspending. Perhaps look at it by categories and compare month to month

If you're serious, congrats on being able to pull it off. I managed two $140k remote jobs at the same time but could only handle it for 4 months. I was only working about 35hrs total between the two but struggled with balancing meetings and tasks. The extra cash was sure nice though!

I am currently in Entry Level Pool-Bangalore and will be 'Soft Locked' to Bench in a month's time. I wish to change my job location to either Indore in MP(top priority) or to Pune(MH).

(2) Should I wait till I get a project in Bangalore and then change location only if WFH gets over (if that is possible) or change it right now ?
(3) Any idea till when WFH will last? Thanks 🙏
