Being in the top 10% earning bracket in India doesn't mean shit! I can't even imagine what it's like for the 90% below us.

Salary - Cost of Living

What really messed with my head was looking at the numbers rather than just the percentile.

Apparently, earning roughly ₹32,000 a month can already put an Indian worker around the top 10%. On paper, that sounds like you’re doing exceptionally well.

but it is not...

Okay, I am feeling too lazy to type everything here, so I'll just attach link to a video some academy posted that popped up on my feed. It is a new video so I decided what the hell and watched it; and damn, it was really something.
