I love the stereotype that men should earn more than women. I don't support it, but it is helping me a lot.

At weddings, random relatives asked my aunt if I was up for marriage. My aunt declined all the proposals.

I thought it was due to feminism, freedom of choice blah blah blah. But, it was because - they did not earn more money than me. I know my core family is poor. I didn't know my entire family and their connections are also poor.

I have never been so happy about being born into a financially poor family.

Three realizations while adulting

1. You spend 70% of your income on things you thought were already covered with 30% of your income by paying tax.
2. When a friend calls after a long time, it is most likely because they need a referral.
3. If you don't find peace, you'll always be chasing something—money, respect, love, or even more money.

Bonus Realization - The least worried you have ever been was before your 10th board exams. From then on, either you or your parents will be worried.
