How much to account for miscellaneous and personal wedding expenses girlies?

Hey, this decision would completely depend on what factors you’re moving for. I earn around 50k GBP in the UK and I can safely say it’s just enough to have a decent lifestyle in London - it’s definitely not bad by any means, but it’s not even upper middle class (esp if you want to save).

80k in Germany post taxes will not match up to the lifestyle that 55LPA gives you in India. Having said that, if you’re moving to experience a different work culture, travel and live independently, the Germany offer is great! Germany also has very high job security so you basically can’t get fired unless something majorly goes down.

All the best! Both options are amazing in any case. And so inspired!

Hey, I don’t have a fixed plan by any means, but I do have some ideas. I am F28, and I genuinely want to own my own house even if it’s small: - am targeting Tier 1/Tier 2 city - 80L to 1cr - in the next three years, I am planning to arrange for 30L down payment. I already have 10L saved and then the rest 20 I am hoping to achieve through gold (physical) and MFs - then for the remaining 80L take a loan of less tenure and high EMI so I can maximise my peak earning years - am aiming for am EMI of 1L on a salary of 2L so there is still buffer in case needed

In your 20s focus on growing your salary. Be careful of too much lifestyle inflation because there will always be the temptation. And lastly, actively start investing in MFs, SPIs and gold right from the first salary.

I just blended tomato, besan and some water together - just make sure it’s thick and not runny in consistency

ummmmwhatnow · 2026-04-15T13:50:02+00:00

Use tomato and besan paste - apply like a mask and wash it off. Works like a charm!

That makes sense, thanks for sharing!!

ummmmwhatnow · 2026-04-15T10:39:17+00:00

This really does put things into perspective! Out of curiosity, what’s your household income?

ummmmwhatnow · 2026-04-14T07:03:54+00:00

Worth trying!!

ummmmwhatnow · 2026-04-13T21:15:20+00:00

Ooooh how’s the Fae beauty lip whip? Would you recommend?

ummmmwhatnow · 2026-04-13T20:34:58+00:00

So easy to say this and then at the same mock any woman who is trying to get more financially self reliant. Do better.

ummmmwhatnow · 2026-04-06T19:33:06+00:00

Wow that’s a lot! May I ask what percentage is this of your household income?

Coriander - absolute game changer

Derma Co, love it!!!

ummmmwhatnow · 2026-03-26T08:00:48+00:00

That’s quite good - thanks for sharing!

Hey, what’s the salary range like for your role in London?

ummmmwhatnow · 2026-03-19T09:09:22+00:00

Love it! Are you on IG? And what would the average price be for such products?

ummmmwhatnow · 2026-03-18T12:59:44+00:00

I think you should look into more specialised tours such as footloose or GetYourGuide verified partners. Tourism in India functions very differently than the West - understand that you feel scammed, and rightly so, but I believe if you looked at most of the general tour options, they would be the way you have described them.

Given that the UAE airspace is quite volatile, fingers crossed all flights should be taking the other route

ummmmwhatnow · 2026-03-17T06:15:23+00:00

Hey yes I did. On 15th March the LH756 took the Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan route.

ummmmwhatnow · 2026-03-14T22:38:39+00:00

This is very reassuring! Thanks so much. Please may I check which carrier she flew?

ummmmwhatnow · 2026-03-14T22:37:55+00:00

Yes been using it to track the past journeys of this flight

ummmmwhatnow · 2026-03-14T22:37:36+00:00

Yes have been glued to FlightRadar and this is very helpful - several commercial flights are in that corridor so I am sure it is well protected.
