If you are saving just Rs. 5000, your first priority should be to create an emergency fund. You never know when one might get laid off in which case you shouyld have 6 months bare minimum in hand to find a new job.

Bruh. 10k for gym and protein? Way too much. I’m a fitness enthusiast too but 10k for one person seems to be too much.

Agreed with everyone else. The amount being saved is small. You never know when you fill need quick cash. Loans and emi’s will put you behind in life if you aren’t prepared.

I earn 76 and save nothing. Early in my career too like you. I think you should focus on spending on upskilling yourself and on luxuries. At least for a while. I do have an emergency fund tho. I will probably start saving a big chunk after my next hike. Live life. Your 20s won't come back.

I think you should first focus on bringing your expenses down to atleast be able to save 20% of your salary. Where to invest becomes irrelevant if your savings is meager.

Do your research around SIPs in mutual fund, stocks etc. Your investments should ideally be diversified but obviously in your case only after you’re being able to save 30k approx.

The audacity of youngsters today to spend most of their earnings 🥲 When I had started my career, I was spending only 50% despite my salary being low. You guys have really taken your risk appetite to the sky.

Start a simple SIP of 5k and forget everything else. When you up your income start creating an emergency fund.

56k in banglore means you just started your career see the thing is that banglore is more expensive than Mumbai or any other tier 1 cities these days so the 5k you are saving now every month can be invested in many financial scheme like digi gold is the best option for these days or you can say sip is the best. Simultaneously when your income starts growing you can make invest in various fields for example sip as well as digi gold we will give a good return at the time of your 40 or 50s.But do remember one thing the main point of working in a private sector is to switch your jobs quickly as quickly as possible.

Wait untill u get new Gf in bangalore keep this comment save fr future then send monthly expenses detail with add on expenses n Gf.

Find some good plans in long terms mode in insurance!

I can understand making more money equate to spending more. Don’t forget the factor of inflating your lifestyle. That leads to overspending. Always follow the 3x rule. Making sure you can comfortably afford what you buying 3 times over. Only then decide to spend. Eg. gym for a year is 12k or 10k make sure you have 30k or 36k in your bank so you can comfortably afford it. Never forget 3x rule. 👍🏾
