Indian NRIs Discuss Financial Realities and Career Differences Between US and India
Two Indian men based in the US shared perspectives on financial and career differences between living abroad and in India. Nitin Malhotra, earning about $8,000 monthly, explained that high US expenses reduce his savings compared to his previous 25 lakh annual salary in India. Meanwhile, Arham Ishteyak highlighted how moving abroad impacts NRIs differently by age, noting that those over 40 with savings face less financial change than younger professionals still building careers, who may find greater opportunities in the US.
