In my own case, I wear the cheapest brands possible and drive a cheap second-hand car that is nearly 10 years old. I am looked down upon and girls ignore me, but I am not bothered. I save every paisa I can and invest in financial instruments and shares. I have made a nice stash this way and my parents have also contributed to my stash. After I hit a certain amount, I will quit law firm life. I’ll go back to my hometown, run a small business and spend every evening playing badminton, reading good books and watching good movies. That’s all I need in life.
For cars, my view is that you don’t spend too much early career.
