Well said. Its not one size fits all kind of situation where one will be happy only after having more money. For some, being with family brings happiness. For some, growth plus more money brings the same. Some are satisfied with what they do/earn.

Social media including fishbowl has made people make constant comparisons with unknown people on daily basis and its taking a toll. Everyone has the best life/package/job/tech except the one reading the post.

Zaruratein utni hi rehti hain. Ichhayein badhti jaati hain. Kharcha zarurat ke hisab se karo toh kum nahi padega. Try to use the extra money after saving to add richness to your life. Learn a skill that you wanted to, explore new places (even if it is in India).

Don't spend on things that will only sap more money from your pocket and add stress to your mind. Example, things like a fancier car, a bigger house, a bigger TV, overpriced phone, AC in every room etc.
