Salaries may be the same, but responsibilities differ. Stop judging workmates who don't buy new clothes every month like you do. Mind your own business.
As an Indian your financial planning should be very simple.
- First earn enough to avoid public transport.
- Then earn enough to live in a gated society.
- Then earn enough to use private hospitals and flights.
- Then earn enough to pay agents so you don't waste your life running behind Govt Babus.
- And finally earn enough to have the option of leaving India.
We aren't climbing the lifestyle ladder, we're climbing the escape ladder.
Introverted, shy people can't survive in the modern world.
Here's how to stop being an introvert.
- Start conversations with strangers.
- Stop thinking about what others think of you.
- Go on trips, even if solo, and meet new people there.
- Make eye contact and speak confidently while talking.
- Don't avoid social gatherings. Go even if you don't want to go.
- Make an effort to meet new people and make friends.
- Never spend your entire day alone in the house.
- Join clubs, groups or activities and develop hobbies.
- Don't hesitate to express your opinions, even if people don't like them.
- Stop waiting for others to approach you. You do it.
- Make phone calls instead of always texting.
- Celebrate festivals, New Year and other events. Go to parties. Don't skip them.
Try your best not to be introverted and shy, or else you will regret it later.
Life is short, and our time in this world is limited. So make the best of it.
राजस्थान के वरिष्ठ IAS अधिकारी डॉ. जितेंद्र सोनी की IPR (चल-अचल संपत्ति विवरण) चर्चा में है!
जयपुर में प्लॉट और प्रॉपर्टी का ब्योरा पूरी तरह अस्पष्ट है—न हैंडराइटिंग साफ है, न खरीद की तारीख और न ही सही कीमत का उल्लेख है (कोलम में 'Informed DOP as per rules' और 'As per market price' लिख कर खानापूर्ति कर दी गई है)।
सीएम के OSD जैसे जिम्मेदार पद पर बैठे अधिकारी से जनता पारदर्शिता की उम्मीद करती है। ऐसे में यह अधूरा विवरण कई सवाल खड़े करता है! 🤔

One thing I have observed:
People dont want to return the money you lend them when they are in need.
So, learn to say NO.
Guys, your savings are not someone elses emergency fund. Protect your financial security first.
People who are born in tourist places with their families owning land, hotels and resorts are so lucky.
- Live in a beautiful place
- Get money easily
- Pollution-free environment
- No worries in life
A billionaire once told me: When you feel stuck, go sit in the most expensive hotel in your city.
Order a coffee. It works every time.
Here's what that room does to you:
One beautiful thing about getting older is realizing how many problems can be solved by simply saying, “That’s none of my business,” and carrying on with my day.
You don't fear a ₹2.26 lakh EMI in Gurugram (that's a ₹2.6 Cr loan at 8.5% for 20 years).
You fear what your relatives will think when they drive in for your griha pravesh and see a builder floor in Sector 46.
So you stretch another ₹1.5 Cr on Extension Road just for a double-height lobby and a guard in a safari suit.
The funny part?
Your cousins eat the kadai paneer or butter chicken, whatever, and forget your society's name and tower number before their car crosses IFFCO Chowk.
You pay the bank till 2046 for a two-hour dinner.
Major cheat code in life:
Master the graceful exit. From conversations. From parties. From opportunities. “This has been wonderful, but I need to go.” No elaborate excuses. No fake emergencies. Just clear kind departure. Most people don’t know how to leave. They stay too long or leave badly. Master the exit.
Your parent's home is not designed for ambition and productivity. It is designed for eating, sitting, talking, watching entertainment, sleeping, or lazing around. It works for them. It doesn't work for you. They didn't have to open 37 tabs and push buttons on a screen to earn their bread. That kind of knowledge work where you make stuff happen on a computer needs to be done somewhere else. I've tried for 15 years now. Working at home just doesn't work.
Having 0 desire to impress people will save you a lot of money in India.
The people you are trying to impress will only remember for a few days, but you will be under stress or debt for years.
Spend on what you use.
Skip what you show off.
