You earn Rs 75 LPA and still cry it is not enough in Bengaluru or Gurgaon? Entrepreneur gives a reality check, says I too could have bought a Mercedes
A Delhi-based businessman has triggered a spirited debate across LinkedIn by highlighting a growing trend among well-paid professionals—complaints that even high annual incomes such as Rs 75 lakh fall short of maintaining their lifestyle. His sharply worded commentary questions the logic behind such financial dissatisfaction, especially in cases where excessive borrowing fuels unsustainable standards of living. The Triggering Post: A Wake-Up Call? Abhijit Chakraborty, the entrepreneur behind the viral post, used the platform to express frustration at what he perceived as irresponsible money habits hidden behind a veil of helplessness. His post addressed the numerous narratives floating online—people earning Rs 40 to Rs 75 lakh annually lamenting their inability to survive, citing burdens such as Rs 2 lakh monthly home loan EMIs and Rs 50,000 car EMIs. Rather than sympathize, Chakraborty pointedly questioned why anyone would choose to overextend themselves financially just to uphold a certain lifestyle. While he acknowledged the logic behind property purchases—describing them as rent savings or appreciating investments—he had little patience for large vehicle loans. He found it unreasonable that people justify spending nearly Rs 20 lakh on a car over four years without having secure financial footing. To drive his point home, he rhetorically questioned when owning a premium car became essential for one's identity. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Encontre voos low-cost Voos | Anúncios de Pesquisa Saiba Mais Undo Personal Example to Drive the Point To lend weight to his arguments, Chakraborty shared insights from his own journey. Even when he was earning Rs 30 lakh per annum, he chose to drive a modest Rs 5 lakh car. Upon doubling his salary to Rs 60 lakh, he only then upgraded to a Rs 10 lakh vehicle—still purchased without any loans. His key message was that financial strain is not always about insufficient income but often stems from misguided priorities and impulse-driven purchases. For him, trading peace of mind for the illusion of status made little sense. Divided Reactions on Social Media Chakraborty's post quickly gained traction, drawing a wide spectrum of responses. Some found his tone bordering on boastful. A few commenters implied that the post sounded more like self-praise than genuine advice, particularly pointing out how he subtly slipped in his old salary figures. Others resonated with his critique, agreeing that many professionals fail to distinguish between genuine needs and socially influenced desires. They supported his perspective, noting that a self-imposed lifestyle trap often leads to unnecessary stress. Still, there were contrasting viewpoints. Some argued that in cities like Bengaluru, where infrastructure and housing costs are high, owning a home and a reliable vehicle is no longer a luxury but a necessity. Others added that consumption by such individuals sustains the economy and shouldn't be discouraged outright. A Larger Concern: Credit Culture and Lifestyle Inflation One comment encapsulated a broader issue: the influence of easy loans and social media glamorization of wealth has distorted people's perception of 'enough'. The pressure to constantly upgrade has blurred the line between essential and extravagant. The call was clear—people must begin living mindfully and understand the financial traps they're stepping into. Abhijit Chakraborty, a science graduate from Ramjas College, Delhi University, may have only shared his opinion—but in doing so, he ignited a much-needed conversation on lifestyle choices, ego-driven expenses, and the illusion of wealth in urban India.

Gold Prices Fall For 4th Day To Near One-Week Low: Check 22kt, 24kt Rates In Your City On June 20
Gold Rates In India Today, June 20, 2025: In Mumbai, the price of gold stood at Rs 92,100 per 10 grams for 22-carat and Rs 1,00,480 per 10 grams for 24-carat. Gold Prices In India Today, June 20: Gold prices on Friday continued to decline for the fourth day in a row as investors liquidated positions in bullion to cover losses elsewhere amid rising geopolitical tensions between Israel and Iran. The yellow metal prices are at a near one-week low and heading for their first weekly decline in three weeks. In Mumbai, the price of gold stood at Rs 92,100 per 10 grams for 22-carat and Rs 1,00,480 per 10 grams for 24-carat. Silver was also trading down at Rs 1,12,100 per kg in the city. These spot prices do not include making charges and 3% GST. In the futures market, on the MCX, gold was trading lower by 0.50% at Rs 98,837 per 10 grams, whereas silver was down by 1.41% to trade at 1,05,875 per kg. Rahul Kalantri, vice-president (commodities) of Mehta Equities, said, 'Gold and silver prices slid from recent highs, nearing one-week lows and heading for their first weekly decline in three weeks. Silver prices fell below $35.70 per ounce after a sharp rally earlier in the week. The decline came as investors liquidated positions in bullion to cover losses elsewhere amid rising geopolitical tensions between Israel and Iran." The Bank of England also held rates steady in its monetary policy meetings on Thursday which also limited gains of precious metals. However, escalation of the Israel-Iran war and weaker dollar index are supporting safe-haven buying for precious metals. Weakness in the rupee is also supporting prices of gold and silver in the domestic markets, he added.
